Australia vs Argentina: Match Preview

The Rugby Championship table makes sweet reading for Wallabies fans.  Joe Schmidt’s team have continued to build on some impressive performances against the British & Irish Lions, with last weekend’s 28-24 victory over the Pumas propelling them to second place, just one point behind arch-rivals the All Blacks. After several dark years in Australian rugby, things are starting to look up as a home World Cup in 2027 starts to loom on the horizon. A win at a sold-out Allianz Stadium in Sydney would also be ideal preparation for the two Bledisloe Cup matches against New Zealand.

Schmidt has made four changes to the side that beat Argentina a week ago, three of them enforced by injury. Tane Edmed comes in for Tom Lynagh to make his first start at fly-half, Hunter Paisami plays his first Wallabies match of the season in place of Len Ikitau, and Jeremy Williams takes Nick Frost’s place in the second row. Veteran prop James Slipper gets the nod over Tom Robertson, winning his 149th cap in the process.

The Pumas, meanwhile, may be bottom of the standings but they’re by no means out of contention in this tightest of Rugby Championships. Victory against the Wallabies would launch them right back into contention – a bonus point win would be enough for them to leapfrog Saturday’s hosts.  Head coach Felipe Contepomi has made three changes to his starting XV. Up front, Guido Petti replaces Franco Molina at lock, and Joaquín Oviedo gets the nod over Pablo Matera in the back row. Rodrigo Isgró comes in for Bautista Delguy on the wing.
