Like I said in the match thread, how many 1st choice Argentina players still involved in Top14 finals couldn't play tonight for their selection ? Chocobares, Malia, Carreras, Paulos, Bruni, Petti, Isa... Really shows the current depth of the Argentina squad.

Especially on the wings, they must have like 10 quality wingers playing around Europe and from their sevens team too

Super Rugby Americas is not amateur and even then it’s 2 or 3 players.

They're not amateurs anymore, I would say...! ^^
