Los Pumas preparing to storm ‘Cathedral of Rugby’ in All Blacks rematch | The Rugby Championship

Argentina head coach Felipe Contepomi and captain Julián Montoya know the history that their opponents have on their side in this weekend’s clash against the All Blacks, but say they are preparing accordingly.

  1. As a kiwi, I'm scared of this Pumas team! Should have it in the bag at Eden Park, but expecting a tough match! Good luck to both teams

  2. The All Blacks are a Victim of their own success, a successful Ex Canterbury Coach looking to make Aucklands Eden Park his new Happy Hunting Ground. After suffering a catastrophic defeat. Good Luck to Both Sides, Vamos Los Pumas, Kia Kaha All Blacks.

  3. I hate Contepomi (even if we win the Championship) – Argentinian guy here, still totally frustrated about UAR ignoring Gonzalo Quesada 💙🇦🇷

  4. los pumas winning record against the abs and springboks is the same. IE. pumas have beaten abs 3 times & beaten springboks 3 times. (according to wikipedia)
    also, dont forget: contepomi was part of that leinster side that was basically unbeatable and won everything there is to win in europe.

  5. Poor call keeping TJ. Should be Cortez. Jordan should be 15, Barret at 10, caleb and talea as wings. strange calls by the selectors

  6. Aucklnaders need to fill up Eden Park or it's hard to call it a Catherdral (results yeah, atmosphere never)

  7. Well the All Blacks need to respond with a comprehensive Win … Question's are already being asked of this Team.
    Don't underestimate the opposition always show them respect no matter who they are … That goes for player's and spectators and support don't abuse or throw your toy's people because you lost money at the TAB…
    Seems to have an impact on people aye.

  8. as a kiwi, you have to respect this Puma team. Their country is pretty much the best at soccer, that was their sport, but a lot of guys werent built to play soccer. Aint no prop gunna run rings round
    fast and agile athletes, its a wingers gamefor example. So they say, oh well lets become the best at rugby union. it may take a while, but we'll get there. and slowly but surely they are. I hope the all blacks come out fighting
    to put these little upstarts (lol) back in their place. I just dont think its going to happen unfortunately. Now we all have to whinge at someone, and as much as i love Razor, way better than
    previous coaches, (one eyed cantabrian here) I still think hes picking the wrong team. I say get rid of TJ and concentrate on Ratima, i say bench D Mack, put beauden on at ten and will Jordan
    at full back. bring talea back on , on the wing, and have a crack at that combination. Anyway thats my two cents, good luck to both teams to be sure, its gunna be awesome either way

  9. Looking forward to welcoming Felipe back to Lansdowne Road in November. Ireland are 2 from 3 against SA in the last year. Expecting a win against the AB's and Argentina.

  10. Lets go ALL BLACKS!!! 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤 Ain’t no way the PUmAs gonna beat us back to back at the garden. Pumas only just won that game playing their very best. ABs missed tackles. ABs threw away the lead and played well below their standards. Players gonna be a lot tighter in this game. Sam gonna tackle the crap outta them. Don’t be surprised if the Pumas get pumped.😱😱😱LES GO!!!!All you doubters and Argentina fans that wanna talk smack and jive talk…😏hang about after the game okay don’t go MIA😂😂😂

  11. Never heard such a bombastic commentary as on TV1 Sport by Andrew Saville calling Eden Park Southern Hemisphere’s the “Cathedral of Rugby”.
    Eden Park is a DOG of a stadium – what’s the best of this dog? Nothing! No parking, trains seldom run when required, uncovered seating at each end behind the posts. Capacity – small by comparison. What arrogance. But it’s the usual shit coughed up by a Kiwi! One eyed!

  12. Way to go Argies from a whole bunch of kiwis 😃 love watching you play 👏👏👏🫡
