  1. i do'nt think so


  2. Yes they will. I think they will beat Ireland to top their group. That will give them a game against Scotland or Italy in the next round, which they shouldn't have problems with. I can't see them winning their semi-final though.

  3. top five, no, top 8 definatley

  4. The Pumas have been playing extremely intelligently.

    So far they have been the smartest of the bunch. If they continue with their discipline and courage they will be hard to beat. Their presence in the semis would not come as a big surprise.

  5. the pumas are tough they will be the spoilers in this wc. I wont be surprised if they make it to the finals. Even my ABs are worried about them

  6. Even though they are seeded 4th in the world, their group is an absolute killer. It comes down to the Argentina/ Ireland & France/ Ireland games.

    So that said I think it will be France and Argentina to qualify, but the Pumas getting no further than the 1/4 finals

  7. No.

  8. They don't seem to gel quite well as a team, they did well against France but Georgia gave them problems tonight, which they should not have!

    So at the moment, I doubt it very much!

  9. I don't think the Pumas will make the top 5 although as a losing quarterfinalist they will be 5th equal.  There are no further games to find 5th - 8th place.  I do think the Pumas will qualify for the quarter finals but I think they will finish behind Ireland in their section and therefore will have to play the All Blacks in the quarter final.  Other possibilities are that they finish either top of their or third if say Ireland beat them and France beat Ireland.  If the Pumas finish first in their group they are likely to meet Scotland in the quarter finals and I would say they have a good chance of winning that.  Onviously if they finish third in the pool they are outside the top 8 teams at this tournament.  My prediction is losing quarter finalists for the Pumas.

  10. Until recently, they were 5th, but I guess the IRB considers a victory over Namibia by Ireland more challenging and worthy than a victory over France, the 3rd best country, being the locals, in the opening match, by The Pumas.

    If I was in charge, Argentina would be 3rd.

  11. Yes they will,I picked them to beat France which they did.Now they have 1 of the bigger scalps under there belt they will go on with new found confidence to become recognised as once they were in the top 5!!

    Of course the ALL BLACKS are gonna win the Webb Ellis trophy this time such is there hunger, go the AB's....

  12. You must be joking, but good luck to your non top 5 team!
