It came to be as such based on Selknam’s loss on Saturday combined with Peñarol’s highly questionable bonus point claimed in losing 63-25 on Friday. The rules are evidently not perfect as Peñarol conceded 63 consecutive points yet came away with a competition point. Los Dogos dominated the first quarter. The Córdoba s ..read more
