EXTENDED HIGHLIGHTS: All Blacks v Argentina (Brisbane) 

I'm enjoying being proven wrong!

Let me guess you support Brazil at football...🤣

unlucky not to be in the XV for the Boks test, the depth in the backrow is mindblowing though

Just trying to get a breather I guess.

That kind of nonsense needs to stay in sevens. It doesn't belong in the 15 a side game.

It's no different than all teams who wind the clock down by doing a pick-and-go and setting up ruck after ruck. It's up to the defence to come up with something or force the opposition into using the ball, just like Marcos Kremer did by forcing Vaa'i to put the ball down.

Nitpicker

but why stop chasing him and not make him work for it? thats more disrespectful to ur nation by giving up so easily (not saying the whole game just in that one instance)

"Black 6 changing the line", Blackadder was running into the way of the Argentine kick chaser, who was trying to get the ball. Thus, 6 was obstructing the Argie from getting to the ball

@@Tordah he didnt really run tho, did he? Is the rule that you need to be out of the way of the kick chaser?

@@flyingdutchman3165 The rule is you can't deliberately change your line in order to obstruct an opponent. Blackadder walked in front of the Argie, obviously with the intent to obstruct. It's a widely used tactic, and he was a bit too obvious.

@@Tordah alright thank you so much for the explanation!

We are gonna win lol

r u an all blacks fan or springbok? just asking cause im dumb lol

@@samanthabeuth Never underestimate Boks, emotions run high from last game so the performance lifts in next. They'll be pissed Oz kicked them too. They'll be in it and they'll be brutal. Will they win? Nah. Prolly not. Ab's will be bloody sore though.

Agreed, but he is definitely improving. Has made some very good plays in defence recently. I genuinely think he felt he wasn't held, and listening to the Aussy comentary they all said he was right not to throw the pass. He just needs a bit more time and he will polish up his game even more. He the most devastating attacker in the squad already. That line break was genuinely great.

@@andrewlawson573 Yea I'll agree that a lot of the time his options, in retrospect, aren't always that great. And he probably wouldn't be turning it over if he wasn't getting isolated cause he's so fast and gets away from his supporters as well. But still, it's becoming a trend. You're right though, he is improving. It's just something that once he figures it out, like Akira has, he will be number 1. Akira seems to pass it when you would back him to run it in, but he's putting guys away regularly.

@Squigy Diamond fully agree. Will be interesting to see if he beats the try scoring record. He's already on 25 or 30 I believe. People just need a little patience with him.

@Squigy Diamond I'm probably being impatient to be honest. But if it wasn't clear, I'm actually a huge fan of the guy. I think he has the skillset to be one of the greats, a real game-breaker. But yeah, I need to remember that it's only his second professional year at centre (going from being a finisher on the wing to a distributer in midfield), and probably less than a half dozen of his tests have been at centre so yes, there's no need to get to worried. I just can't wait to see him finally get it all together and start wrecking dudes. ABs would be unstoppable with him shredding the line and putting guys away.

Yes lots of trys scored but the score does not increase.

The last 3 letters are correct

Wat u mean

Weak tackle attempt from Argentina 17

double movement i think

If you're talking about the first one it was a forward pass. Should've been shown in the highlights but they didn't address it

@@ThirdEye_oOo Yes bad editing.

@@ThirdEye_oOo i didn’t watch the game live only seen these highlights. definitely was forward pass and was hoping they pulled it up even as a kiwi supporter. i’ve known in the past for us to get away with calls like this which is unfair to the true nature of the game

He is often in the habit of butchering tries. Bit of humility wouldn't go a miss.

Abs give arg lesson in attack

Look at the score. Defence and attack won the game.

@@RedTerrorist13 yes but Argies stopped them several times and right on the line.

@@bb21again.67 so they should but still not enough

@@RedTerrorist13 The Argentina defence was admirable because if those ABZ attacks had been against Wallaby's or Springies or anybody else that score line would have been doubled, I'm just giving credit where credit is due.

He's ok when he's far out, but once he breaks the line he sees nothing but whitewash and gets cocky

Yep its fair to say its not a strength of his game atm but he is a work in progress at 13 which is a position players tend to mature into. He does have that one un-coachable asset tho and that is genuine world class pace, if he can start to link with the back 3 a little better AB attack could be next level lethal!

There’s always that one comment that puts down our players! He’s a centre in progress and what a threat he has been for ABs🔥

@@nzrockdj Sure it's a bit of hyperbole, but there's at least one great break he makes almost every game that doesn't turn into points because he holds on just a little too long. It doesn't matter so much when we are playing people who aren't going to punish us. But these are the sort of plays that might make the difference in a crucial game. I can't speak for the OP, but I certainly think his ability to break the line is amazing and I would love to see him develop. I just think it's an aspect of his game that he needs to work on to really get to the next level and be considered our first choice centre, and not just a guy who covers when ALB or whoever is out.

@@d_uzooo3972 Yeah, he is in progress and decision making in attack is one of his most in-progress aspects. Don't act like he's perfect because no athlete is free of criticism

Wasting time in the final minutes! Why would you not.

@@dutoitm1 It's poor sportsmanship and is a bad look, for any team.
