There is something beguiling about watching the Argentine team on the rugby pitch. They have something that is so lacking in all of the other big teams in the upper echelons of world rugby. The likes of the home nations are devoid of one simple thing: Passion.

Passion for during a game as if it is the last to ever be played, passion for team work and camaraderie, and passion for the beautiful anticipation of a clock surely, and ultimately counting down to its end. This is passion that only the black sheep of the IRB Top Ten could display. And passion that is sorely lacking from Wales.

Argentina are in the very real prospect of getting a medal in the 6^th Rugby World Cup. The quarter final match with Scotland should pose no real problem for the Pumas, owing to a lack in form from those north of Hadrian’s Wall, but that’s not to say they will be easy. However, they should put at least 40 points on them, if the fires are burning the way that they did against France and Ireland.

"When I was at Pontypridd they didn't embarrass me with their ball skills like the Fiji boys in training do now. So we know we can beat them."
