Summary
Thank you for joining me tonight for a landmark victory for Argentina, the Pumas running out deserved victors against Australia in Sydney.
I’ll be back here in a fortnight to see if the Wallabies can restore some pride against the All Blacks at the MCG, but for now I’ll leave you with Angus Fontaine’s match report.
As I mentioned earlier on, this match-up is a likely World Cup quarter-final in Marseille. Jo Higgins emails in: “Pumas proving to have a far better and more focussed coach. Could be dangerous opponents in World Cup.” Indeed, Jo, indeed.
And on that subject, Michael Cheika will be thrilled at getting one over his old sparring partner Eddie Jones. These appear to be a pair of evenly matched sides heading in different directions, thanks in no small part to the two Sydneysiders in charge.
