After the competition, the Australian head coach delighted us with his particular statements about two players from the Argentine national team: Marcos Monetawho had scored two tries against his team, and Luciano González Rizzoni.
In the first instance, Manenti highlighted the virtues of the back that emerged from Saint Andrew: “Moneta has a lot of pace and is lethal, but he also has Argentine soccer skills: he knows how to kick and catch it. Unfortunately, you can’t gain experience without being there… You can study him, but if he’s not the best finisher in the world, I don’t know who it is”.

You always see him very unstructured and that’s why it seems normal to me that he made those kinds of comments. And what is he going to say? A guy who ate 70 points in two finals, heh. I understand, it hurts him, I have a good relationship with him. the truth is that you can’t believe…”this particular and funny back and forth concluded with laughter.
