Been brushing up on my Spanish so ive decided to be the Pumas correspondent. Main reasons being that i like the way they go about playing a uncomprimising, hard nosed game and they love a bbq. It is unfortunate that they are in the "RWC pool of death"( France and Ireland) but we shall see.
RWC player selecciones
Backs: Agustín Pichot (Stade Français, captain), Horacio Agulla (Hindú), Felipe Contepomi (Leinster), Manuel Contepomi (Newman), Ignacio Corleto (Stade Français), José María Nuñez Piossek (Bayonne), Nicolás Fernandez Miranda (Hindú), Martín Gaitan (Biarritz), Juan Martín Hernandez (Stade Français), Federico Serra Miras (SIC), Gonzalo Pedro Tiesi (London Irish), Federico Todeschini (Montpellier), Lucas Borges (Stade Français).
Forwards: Patricio Albacete (Toulouse), Rimas Alvarez Kairelis (Perpignan ), Marcos Iván Ayerza (Leicester Tigers), Martín Alberto Durand, Carlos Ignacio Fernandez Lobbe (Sale Sharks), Juan Martín Fernandez Lobbe (Sale Sharks), Santiago Gonzalez Bonorino (Capitolina), Omar Hasan (Toulouse), Mario Ezequiel Ledesma Arocena (Clermont Auvergne), Juan Manuel Leguizamon (London Irish), Gonzalo Matías Longo Elia (Clermont Auvergne), Esteban Lozada (CASI), Lucas Ostiglia (Agen), Rodrigo Roncero (Stade Français), Martín Scelzo (Clermont Auvergne), Martín Schusterman (Leeds Tykes), Alberto Vernet Basualdo (Alumni).
Interesting to note that 15 of the squad ply their trade in France and only 6 actually playing club rugby at home.
The Pumas played Chile on the weekend and belted them 70 to 14 in their last lead up match before departing for the northern hemisphere. Next game on the calenderio.........Wales v Argentina 14/08/2007 in Cardiff.
