ARG 50 v ROM 3: What they said

23/10/2003

 

Argentina captain Agustín Pichot on the other Pumas' players getting a run against Romania:

"Because of the draw we are playing a lot of games in one week. We have had to rest players to get them fit for the Ireland match."

On the coming match against Ireland:

"It's what we've been waiting for a long time."

On the team's performance at RWC 2003:

"We are very pleased with where we are right now. We have bonded as a team and because of this we are very proud. It's all about camaraderie and friendship."

Gonzalo Quesada on securing a bonus point:

"Yes, of course we are happy, but we knew it would be as tough as it was. We are very pleased to get the bonus point."

On the coming match with Ireland:

"We think they are in better shape than us. They are very strong, but we have very good momentum now after this win."

Romanian wing Mihai Vioreanu on the team's performance:

"It was a tough night alright. It proves that the game against Australia was an accident.

"We've come a long way from amateur to professional. We can progress further and we will get there."

On the Namibian match:

"We're looking forward to playing Namibia and to being the first to bring rugby to Launceston."

Romanian captain Romeo Gontineac on the Namibian match:

"It's a bit early for us to start thinking about the Namibian game, but it's our next objective [to win]."
