Años esperando a que los argentinos pudieran tener la visión y el tacto para proteger a los Pumas (si a esos hermosos felinos ) que son el emblema de su selección de rugby. Pero se sigue viendo que sus rancheros, o gauchos, o como les llamen siguen asesinandolos y en casos capturandolos para quitarles garras y colmillos para con ellos entrenar a sus perros dogos y hasta presumir con videos esta vergonzosa acción. En verdad es lamentable y dice mucho de ustedes. Deseo que su selección de Rugby desempeñe un gran papel y pueda llegar a la final y hasta ganarla. y soñando más : que sea motivo para que su gente se concientize de lo que hacen con los verdaderos Pumas y los aprecien y cuiden como estos imponentes y hermosos felinos lo.merecen. Saludos

Hard to tell from the scant highlights but appears Argies won from Samoa giving away plenty penalities. They seemed to havent played to any where their potential yet .

[@MatW4606]

From the full game, it was most definitely Samoa that gave Argentina an easy win. Samoa missed two easy penalty kicks and they also fluffed up 2-3 tries that should have easily been scored. My take is that argentina was underwhelming but samoas countless handling errors and failing to finish off sets basically threw away a game that they definitely could have won
