ya, it does seem like a belated answer to the 5-6 Nations expansion.

This doesn’t make any sense. Argentina is going to get
murdered by RSA, NZ, and AUS. Just look at how Argentina fared in
the fall test matches this past year. They may have made some
noise in the RWC 2007, but that seems like ages ago. Argentina in
an expanded “7 Nations” tournament makes much more sense given
that’s where most, if not all of their key players play their
domestic rugby. This is a money move, nothing more. Probably a
desperate reach to make the Tri-Nations more interesting too.

Looks like I'll be able to see New Zealand in Buenos Aires pretty soon.

Comment on Lack of Leadership Hurting England by Josh Houston

He got the better of Care by purposefully trying to frustrate
him. He was penalised, it was reversed because of the
retaliation. O’Leary never did it again. Smart.

I think O'Leary either intentionally or accidentally fell over. He was being a douche bag to Care all day. Care could have kept his cool a little better though. Poor form to let O'Leary get to him. And the ref should be penalizing players who prevent a team from taking a quick tap.

As soon as Care left, Ireland scored. 'nuff said.

I can’t comment on his leadership qualities, but his game was
dreadful in my opinion. He was very slow getting to the breakdown
and his delivery to Wilko was terrible. He also gave up a
mindless penalty when he dumped O’Leary. Despite what poeple have
said, Lawrence made the right call. He awarded a penalty to
England for O’Leary holding the ball, then reversed it for the
retaliation. It was standard law book stuff.

Unlike most of the pundits, I thought Danny Care had a great game and seems certainly vocal enough to captain the squad.

Scotland was a huge disappointment. You must be right about the
injuries because where did that attack go? As far as I’ve heard
BOD will be fine, two weeks off will help as well. That was one
nasty knee to the head, especially from a guy who weighs over 250
lbs.

Two out of three this week. I know you’re pumped about Ireland’s win, but i think the injuries got the best of Scotland and revealed their lack of depth.

Any word on BOD? Will Kideny drop O’Connell this coming week
