Thanks for your show, Mark. Argentina reminds me of the French teams of the 80's and 90's: they have the flair and passion, but sometimes they lack consistency and structure. I won't be surprised if Argentina edge out South Africa; when you are world cup champions, every team wants to beat you. Well, we are probably in for more surprises in the next few games. Regards from Cape Town.
Hello Mark, I sincerely hope that Argentina will keep the consistency they have shown in the games they have won. It will be interesting to see how the boks respond to Argentina at their best and I anticipate that the 2 games between the boks and Argentina will certainly confirm the current undertone question whether this boks team is the best 😊 Strongs to the ABs and Wallabies games 🎯💯 Championship rugby 2024 flipping exciting
Felipe Contemponi has all the hallmarks of a legendary Los Pumas coach, win over NZ in NZ, and a record win vs the Aussies. Picking on form, impressive. Go the All Blacks,
None of the teams can be taken for granted, even if they're at the bottom of the table. Complacency and arrogance can be the downfall of any team whereas a wounded team can play with more motivation and freedom if they feel they have nothing to lose, and that makes them dangerous. Argentina and Australia are the wild cards and shouldn't be underestimated. I'll be hoping the Springboks don't become complacent.
Grant Williams has withdrawn from the Argentina tour due to a hand injury, I believe he is our mist exciting scrummie. I think the Boks have self belief, but the Argies can surprise anyone.
Great analysis Mark, love your channel...from a Springbok supporter in SA. I think Rassie will wanna win at all costs in the away fixture in Argentina to secure the Rugby Championship...so he will field the strongest possible side with Manie Libbok at 10 to run the show. Then once the Championship is secured, he will do some experimentation in the home fixture and give some players some game time in preparation for the end of year tour.
Thanks Mark. Yeah the Argies are gonna have to put up a strong 80mins against the Boks. So it makes it a good game coming. But I just think we have too much for them to deal with. But they are playing at home it gives them some advantage
Thank you Mark for another comprehensive and insightful preview of the coming matches. The Springboks will be too strong for Las Pumas in Santiago although I expect the Pumas to give a good account of themselves on their home ground. I note with concern that Pieter-Steph du Toit is NOT going to Argentina for the first game, nor is Grant Williams. I think the Springbok forwards are only half as good when PSdT doesn't play, particularly in defense. But I still expect the Springboks to win perhaps by only a narrow margin. At the moment, I can't see the Wallabies beating the All Blacks in either of their two matches. As you remarked, The Aussies haven't won the Bledisloe Cup for many years and I think the All Blacks have it over their neighbours psychologically and I expect that to apply even when they play in Australia.
Hi Mark, good video! Thank you. Not sure if you know Dricus du Plessis. He is the UFC world champion. His opponents all say he is difficult to read as his moves and style are unpredictable to them. Back to rugby- I think with the new style of playing that the Boks have, it will be the same for Argentina. it could be open or power play from the Boks. I agree with you on you statement that it may be too much for the Pumas. The high that they had was due to the Aussies loose play and sometime shocking defense. Lets see what happens. Go Bokke!
@PvC63-Jan I am not a UFC guy, but thanks for the analogy. Lets see what happens, if nothing else, plenty of excitement for the game. Thanks for the comment
I'm fascinated by the 6,7 & 8 combination of the Pumas. The Boks depth is excellent but weak at 8 & 15. The ABs backline lack enterprising; they need someone of King Carlos creativity to ignite the back 3 fire. The Wallabies Backline need a general who could determine their attack and defense. Currently ad hoc. My five cents input. Thanks Mark. Enjoying your analysis.
THANX FOR TAKING TIME TO REAALY SEE QHAT IVE BEEN GETTING AT, AND I MIGHT SOUND LIKE DISLIKE THE BROTHER STORRY, BUT I BELIEVE THEIR ARE MORE POWERFUL PLAYEDS WAITING TO BE DISCOVERED AND INCLUDED ON PERFORMANCE NOT NAME.
Same as last time, remove captaincy from Barrete, IF THREE BARRETE BROTHERS ON THE LOSING MIGHT CONTINUE, THEY CAN RATHER PLAY PROCTOR AND ALB Let RIEKO (wing & cen) SUB,, THEN BB (10 &15) SUB, TJ SUB, 9, also give a new 10 maybe Love or Plummer, bring back Laumape, include Hoskins, move Ardie to 7 with Blackadder 6, Sititi 8 Hoskins sub,
Ardie Savea would be a better captain (From open side flanker). He is an in your face man. Not afraid to approach the Ref, to put his point across. Listens, and then backs off in respect to the ref's comments. Barrett is a brilliant lock, and needs to concentrate on his core job.
is it true that the different coaches in the all black coaching team is responsible to select the players in their area if experise? So razor doesnt pick the team?
On a positive Vien,D.Mckenzie is safe hands,great reliable accurate kicker and so fast and evasive as a First ball runner.His game plan is the coach plan
The best thing after a miracle is if you don’t need one… Now is the time for the Aussies to show their teeth to the upcoming AB’s battles. And to say that the British Lions rather go to SA is simple said wrong. The game of rugby needs the Wallabies back at their best.
@@insiderugbywithmark You're welcome. You have such great insights and such a knowledge of the game, I want even middle aged men like me to hear it all ha ha!
Gr8 insight as always ... I can see jaden pollard am moodie kolbe and kurtlee fassi .. which looks quite decent ... Forwards very difficult to call now but i hope ben van staden and wiese start .. nortje etzebeth ... steenkamp grobelaar koch to start .. means can really pack a strong bench ... I watched 1st test AB vs Arg again .. flip AB have improved hugely ... Suprised they were so underprepared for that test ... Sure AB going to steamroller Aussie in 2nd half
Joe should have held the bench back until much later against Argentina. That would have made all the difference. I feel for the Aussies. Taking nothing away from the resilient Argentinians. AB will annihilate the Aussies. 🙈
Maybe you need to talk about the allblacks more whay nz can do I under stand the need to talk about all the teams but I for one would like to talk about the all blacks more
I think the All Blacks will beat the Wallabies. This wounded All Blacks team will definitely dominate the Wallabies. I that defeat to Argentina has also sychologically broken the Wallabies. Now they have to face a wounded All Blacks who will want to end their campaign on a strong note.
I would love to see Argentina beat the boks and maybe win the Rugby championship, but yeah, nah mate that $h!t ain't going to happen. Walkabout Wallabies and little Joey no chance of beating the disappointing ABs. Cody Taylor for captain but needs a lot of media coaching. (AB fan)
Wallabies were poor,but come as no surprise.!!! I predicate that "Rugby" will fade out by 2030. Red tape,cards and admin interference, has become a serious "nuance, and never "ending story, to reform the game,and players.!! Also,to much money involved.!!
Just another round of rugby except for the maggots,not sure which rules they will play.Probably they own again. Yeah,can’t wait to watch milking penalties and knock all down.How exciting
Trying to talk the wallabies up is like putting lipstick on a pig. They are clueless and they need a few good hidings to wake up. Rugby Union in Australia is low priority. Next years Lions tour is a waste they should rather tour NZ or RSA
If the steak eating & mezcal imbibing Argentine footballers have their siesta & the moons align then they can beat the best ! Remember - Scrums are not won on salads.

@neilshrekpurves4521yes, covered Grant Williams in this video. The Argentina team can surprise.

Thanks for the kind support.
Lets see what Rassie does, I just posted today some thoughts on the Community Page
It is now time to take chances for all teams, doesn’t matter where this competition is going, try new things!
I wonder if anyone will, or is there too much on the line
Great video, Thank you Mark!
Again Great! You spoil us, rugby fans!

@frankvsnschalkwyk6030 there we go, thank you
The difference between Saf and ABs was the bench. How will the Pumas respond when the bomb squad comes on the field?
@n-tertainmentx-tended4760 Very good question, we will find out.

is it true that the different coaches in the all black coaching team is responsible to select the players in their area if experise? So razor doesnt pick the team?
You are 100% correct. Scott Hansen picks 9 and 10
@@insiderugbywithmarki am astonished..that is no good..isnt it bad for building depth and is it not a barrier between razor and his charges?
But Razor has the final say.
On a positive Vien,D.Mckenzie is safe hands,great reliable accurate kicker and so fast and evasive as a First ball runner.His game plan is the coach plan
OK.
Don't think he is the answer at 10. But who else do we have?

Our backline won't change ,watch this current backline tear thru the Wallabies and excell.
OK, lets see if you are right
My kiwi friend with many years of rugby under his belt says "the backline is dysfunctional, disconnected and lacking punch". I believe you agree?
I think the All Blacks will beat the Wallabies. This wounded All Blacks team will definitely dominate the Wallabies. I that defeat to Argentina has also sychologically broken the Wallabies. Now they have to face a wounded All Blacks who will want to end their campaign on a strong note.
