Jaguares end four-game slump with victory over Sunwolves
By Sacha Pisani
Jaguares returned to winning ways thanks to their come-from-behind 46-39 victory over Sunwolves in a Super Ruby try fest.
Argentine side Jaguares headed into Saturday's visit of Sunwolves amid a four-game losing streak but the hosts scored seven tries to five to end their slump.
Jaguares were in trouble against Sunwolves of Japan, however, trailing 25-22 at half-time in Buenos Aires.
Sunwolves – with just one win in 10 games before kick-off – also moved 39-27 ahead with 20 minutes remaining in the Argentine capital.

But Jaguares finished strongly as Matias Alemanno, captain Agustin Creevy and Matias Moroni crossed over to erase the deficit and see Jaguares to a thrilling victory.
Creevy levelled the scores from a rolling maul in the 71st minute before Moroni completed the comeback three minutes later.

Thanks for the analysis Nick, thought provoking as usual. Couple of queries though, in the pic where you've circled Williams bind , I'm pretty sure it shows Stuart's knee on the ground, surely that's a NZ penalty? Also having had the chance to watch it again the All Black scrum seeems to improve after halftime, but before either England or the All Blacks replace their props. Not sure if that was the result of Tuipolutu coming on or some halftime tips. Either way this is only Williams second international season, so he'll be better for the experience.
Go to commentsif the clock could be turned back, Jones should still have been given the top job, to be assisted by Farrell, Borthwick, Catt, & Rowntree, and after 2019 he should have been replaced by Farrell.
