Argentina have made a total of nine changes, either in terms of position or personnel, to face South Africa this weekend.

Juan Martín Hernández moves from fly-half to inside centre with the return of Nicolás Sanchez at number ten, while Santiago Cordero and Matías Moroni come into the back-line along with Martín Landajo at scrum-half for Tomás Cubelli.

In the forwards Juan Manuel Legiuzamón moves to number eight with the return of Juan Martín Fernández Lobbe at openside flanker with Tomás Lezana starting at six.

Benjamin Macome joins the surviving Tomás Lavanini in the second row while the front row is unchanged as Agustín Creevy leads the team once again.

 the boks are very lucky,...... Argentina not playing at full strenght,...... Hourcade still testing some players, Lezama, Macome, Moroni, Cordero, in view to include them or not in the 31 squad

still they can beat again the boks,...... and deepen the humilliation suffered last week,....... cannot imagine a worst way of going to the WC

 Argies are now extracting the "Michael" by confidently putting out a "B" side!Little respect for the Boks.I notice Lavanini is getting another run after an impressive performance last week. Beats me how he fits rugby in to his schedule what with all the English lessons he's been taking.....
