    Pumas run riot in Buenos Aires

    France's woes on tour continued on Saturday after Argentina piled on the points to record a memorable 41-13 win at the José Amalfitani Stadium in Buenos Aires.

    The Pumas were full value for their victory with fly-half Felipe Contepomi contributing 31 of his side's points thanks to two tries, three conversions and five penalties - a sterling performance from the home side's skipper.

    Argentina achieved their highest score and biggest margin against France, which completed a disastrous tour of the southern hemisphere, including a 42-17 mauling from the Springboks two weeks ago.

    The previous worse result for the French against Argentina came in the third place play-off at the 2007 World Cup when they lost 34-10

    I like the sound of that, hope RugbyWA are taking a look at him, especially with them joining the Tri (Quad) Nations soon
