However, not obvious that NZ has a massive scrum advantage against the Pumas.

The Aussies and NZers spend their time making excuses for their results. They deflect from their rugby to how well they’ve done in the Olympics. Aussies also lied about soldout brisbane. Look at footage. Swathes of empty seats. That’s why the cameraman zoomed out.

meanwhile commentators were loving the no scrums for 60 mins, pehaps they shoudl get their stories aligned

You’re too smart to succumb to the stupidity of your countrymen. Kiwis love scrums. Kiwis invariably have good scrums, you don’t win nearly 80% of tests without a quality one. Scrums are important to assert dominance. Wasting time setting them & constant resets contribute nothing
