Julián Montoya

...

Ollie Chesham, these hard, young English athletes that have come through the system, Jasper Visser, South African, speak about him, Julian Montoya, in very high regard.

And he's going to a team like Gloucester, who, let's be honest, have had a soft underbelly.

Yeah.

Yeah, we'll get onto that as well.

Do you think that's the impact of the missing French contingent? Obviously, Julian Montoya, Marcus Kramer's out.

Xhaka Baris out in the centres.

He's a real linchpin in defence as well.

And, uh, San- Santiago, uh, Carreras is, is a very good, is a very good fly half, and he st- steered them around very well.

But they, uh, with no, um, Shogakabas out in the, out in the, um, out in the centers, um, you know, without a couple of, um, you know, you're without Marcus Kremer on the, on the s- on the side, Julian Montoya in the, in the, um, in the front row.

They just, the scrum remained vulnerable, like they were giving up scrum penalties fairly early on and then throughout the game.

And, um, and y- and you're right.

They had 20 players unavailable for that match against, um, uh, South Africa.

Uh, but again, this time, even though it is RAG 9, um, there'll be no Julian Montoya, no Marcos Kremer, no Santiago, uh, Chocobaray, no Mateo Carreras, no Thomas Albanes.

So, um, again, you know, this Argentinian depth is going to get another opportunity, um, against the Wallaby side.

Um, but perhaps before we jump into the game, uh, just this, uh, maybe a quick discussion about RAG 9.

But, but the, the players that were listed as unavailable when they named their squad, Argentina include...

There's 12 of them, including, um, Julian Montoya, uh, Kremer, Bautista Delguy, Chocobar are as, some of their-

Wow

... absolute stars-

I'll just go through them, Christie.

Uh, no, uh, Julian Montoya, uh, the hooker, and, uh, u- usual skipper, uh, Thomas, uh, Bornos who gave the Wallabies all kinds of headaches, uh, there a couple of years ago in that blowout, uh, test defeat.

Uh, Mateo Carreras, uh, Santiago Chocobar is a very talented center.

Bautista Delguy on the wing.
