Australia were deserved winners. Defence was awesome, and they made Argentina pay for their mistakes. Three areas needing improvement before the final though... kicking game, penalties conceded, and scrum. Fix those... Australia will win the cup.

Great win - Pocock is a machine, so glad he's back and what a difference he made from the Scotland match. The number of penalties conceded though was ridiculous

Australia really faded in that 2nd half. I wonder how much the Aussies have left in the tank for the final.

Agreed. The All Blacks conceded plenty of penalties vs the Boks though. However Carter doesn't miss many, whereas in the knockout stages Foley has missed a few.
We will soon find out.

An obvious ABs or Argentina supporter didn't like the top 2 posts. Anyway... You're right Christopher Glen. It's not one I would be happy to put money on. I am guessing it will be much closer to the Australia vs Argentina style of game than the ABs vs Boks style... both the ABs and the Wallabies are capable of playing some awesome running rugby... it's gonna be a great game.

The final will come down to experience and mental toughness - the team that better deals with the pressure will win. I know where my money will be in those regards; likely the same place as most neutrals.
Christopher Glen
In that case, may Australia win

And it was exactly as I said it would be....
