Possibly - but I admire how blokes of that age can take the knocks.

Anyway, does anyone ken the Spanish for "Get tore right in to this shower of convict shite" so I can bay at the telly tomorrow?

Amusingly the closest translation I know literally means 'enter this shower of convict shite'. Not sure that's quite what you are after. I'd just stick with 'Hijos de puta convictos'.

I'm swithering today. Quarter final argies v quarter final ozzies I make the pumas the better team.

Prob end up 60-0 Australia now but I genuinely think Argentina have a chance.

They have added an excellent back line of talented footballers and clinical finishing to their traditional forward power.

Australia had a comfortable win in Argentina in July but the 2014 series produced two close games with a win apiece.

Heart says Argentina by -7 head says Aussie's by 7-12

Could be an absolute cracker.

You can argue that the emotion of last week will have taken its toll on Argentina, but the Wallabies have had 3 tough games in a row (well 2 + England) and could be mentally and physically tired from those.

Pocock back will be huge for Oz - the Argies will have to find a way to stop him.

I'm fully hedging my bets here - a win by less than 3 points for either in normal time, or Australia in ET.

My opinion is that the Argentinians are a good team but this Australia team is currently the best in the world and will be too good for them: Folau, Giteau, Pocock, Hooper....

When the Argentinians beat Australia last time, the Australians had a problem with their scrum, that has been sorted now.

Giteau, Pocock, Hooper - absolutely. Still not convinced by Folau though - very good in broken field, but very average defensively at best

Any scrum that has problems from Scotland, even without pocock, is gettable.
