Moodie is fully aware of the challenges that the Pumas present and has received invaluable guidance from his teammates on how to approach the game against Argentina’s skilled backs.
“We know it is going to be tough, but we have our plans, and we have to stick to it,” Moodie said, demonstrating his confidence in the team’s strategy.
