Argentina celebrate their maiden win over the All Blacks at home. It’s becoming a regular thing now. World rugby at its best.
Finances will make it hard, but South America - and namely Argentina - should host a Rugby World Cup.
Bravo Pumas.

- Great scene and reflection of where Australian rugby is going.
- Les Bleus. Wow. Louis Bielle-Biarrey with an unbelievable finish. The play of the Six Nations 2025.
00:00 - Canan Moodie is one lucky man. Having already spent 10 minutes in the bin, the Springboks No.13 was deemed just to knock on by Andrea Piardi. Huge call. Game changing. Tournament changing. Boks’ scrum killing the Pumas.
00:00 - The Wallabies’ greatest performance of all time. Down 22-0 to the back-to-back world champions at Ellis Park, Joe Schmidt’s Wallabies win 22-38. The 62 year drought at Ellis Park is over. James O’Connor’s first Test in 1099 days. Harry Wilson outstanding. Incredible win.
- Wow! Argentina pip the Springboks 29-28. Incredible. Manie Libbok missed a straight forward penalty to win it. Argentina have now beaten the Springboks, All Blacks and Wallabies in the same Rugby Championship campaign. Marvellous result for the global game.
- “It’s not uncommon in life, is it? It’s a cross section of society and often men will say bugger all and suffer in silence ... it took a lot of courage for him to address the group." Dave Rennie on Michael Hooper 👏 👉bit.ly/3Q60q5V
- James O’Connor - the second youngest Wallaby - makes his debut for the Crusaders. The latest chapter in a remarkable career.
- Here’s an example of Raelene Castle’s character. Almost 3 weeks ago I broke a story involving her, which reflected poorly on current and past management. She was furious. 5 days later I was let go (COVID). She texted me straight away to express her regret and well wishes.
- Follow your dreams, kiddo. Scott Boland, a mere three hours after taking 6-7 on debut at the MCG, with his child. Beer in one-hand, the #ashes in the other
- Forward pass every day of the week. Cannot believe that. Wow.
- I’ve covered Aussie rugby for ten years. Sydney hasn’t looked this good in a long, long time 🦁 😍😍😍
