There's lots of love for the Welsh down here. A very traditional settlement down in Patagonia (Gaiman) where lots of Welsh tradition preserved.

Thanks guys.

Still hanging in there in spite of the amount of missed tackles and handling errors.

Managed to butcher a couple of breaks because of lack of support or greed by the ball carrier.

Cheika says it’s pretty much over for Matera. A big blow for them in the quarterfinals you’d think in terms of experience.

Still not at the level they need to be to contend. Sloppy with lots of simple mistakes. Speed to the breakdown slow, support too slow often and support lines not great either for much of the game. Turned over too easily as well. Not sure about the gameplan. Aimless kicking without enough pressure. ...
