I have a counter-thought about SA's knockout rugby; it only looks good because they squeaky bummed it in those games. But they only won by 1 point and it could easily have been a result the other way & then people would have been asking questions about why they don't use their incredible backs more etc.
I just have a vibe about Argentina; they didn't have as good a year as they would have hoped in '23 but it was still pretty decent and they're playing at home against a French team that's only just finished their playoffs. So if they were ever going to get a win it would be now. We've seen more of Argentina at home thanks to the Rugby Championship and they're getting increasingly hard to beat there.
