Writing in The Telegraph, David Sole gives his thoughts on the Scotland starting line-up for Sunday's crunch clash with Argentina.
"I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall at this week’s selection meeting as Scotland coach Andy Robinson picked his team to play the crucial Pool B match against Argentina.
"I’m sure the debates and discussions about who should play where would have been lengthy and probably quite emotive, such is the importance of the game. Where did they begin I wonder?
"The Pumas offer a very clear challenge to any side they play. They are good, technical set-piece players, they compete very aggressively at the contact areas, especially within two to three metres of the breakdown and they like to kick and chase up the middle of the field.
"So, do you select a team that is going to take them on at their own game and try to ‘outmuscle’ the big South Americans or do you focus on trying to play your own style of game and force the opposition to adjust their game plan by necessity?"
