LIVE GAME - Wallabies v Pumas

By Online Editors

GIO Stadium in Canberra is the venue for the second of tonight's Rugby Championship matches, where the Wallabies are hosting the Pumas. The Aussies have had their week disrupted by the Israel Folau tweet controversy, while the Pumas are coming off the back of a loss to the All Blacks in New Plymouth. Follow all the action, stats and commentary in our Live Match Centre here.

The Wallabies' sole change to their starting XV sees Rob Simmons replace Rory Arnold at lock, while Argentina have made four alterations to the team that gave New Zealand a scare before going down 39-22.

Wallabies assistant coach Stephen Larkham said:

"We want to make sure that thought process is not in the players' minds at all, so in our preparation leading into this game, it's certainly not about the outcome it's about the way we prepare and play on the day.

"We're aware that we're responsible for rugby in Australia in general to make sure we're getting results but the best way to do that is not to think about the outcome but more the preparation and your performance in the moment."
