All Blacks to limit opportunities for Argentina to get the ball rolling

All Blacks to limit opportunities for Argentina to get the ball rolling

The All Blacks will be looking to limit the opportunities for Argentina to get their emotions up and get the ball rolling when the two teams meet in round 2 of the Rugby Championship this weekend.

Returning All Blacks winger Will Jordan says they know that Argentina are trying to slow them down at the breakdown, so they are trying to generate quick ball and do everything they can with intent.

The 26-year-old almost came up with the game-winning play against Argentina last week when he burst through their defence and set up a Damian McKenzie try that would have made the difference but was called back on TMO review after replays showed the original pass to Jordan went forward.

Jordan says ill-discipline here or an error there can hugely swing the result one way and that forward pass could have been a huge moment in the game if they had scored.

He says it is important to nail an opportunity when you get it.

The All Blacks will take on Argentina at 7.05pm this Saturday at Eden Park in Aukland.

Meanwhile, the Wallabies will host the Springboks at 9.45pm in Perth.
