Three changes and one positional switch for Argentina versus Wallabies
By Josh Raisey
Argentina enforcer Marcos Kremer has reverted to the back row to face Australia in La Plata on Saturday after starting at lock against the All Blacks in round two of the Rugby Championship.
Kremer's space in the second-row will be taken by Franco Molina, who started on the bench in New Zealand. Tighthead Joel Sclavi, who also started on the bench in Auckland, has been promoted into the starting XV in place of Lucio Sordoni.
Sordoni has left the squad for personal reasons, meaning Eduardo Bello takes the tighthead spot among the substitutes.
Having started at No.8 against Scott Robertson's side, Joaquin Oviedo has dropped out of the squad, meaning Juan Martin Gonzalez scoots from the flank to the back of the scrum.
The only change in the back line sees Santiago Cordero start on the right wing in place of Matias Moroni, who picked up a hip injury against the All Blacks.
After recording a shock victory against the All Blacks in round one of the Championship in Wellington, the Pumas suffered a heavy 42-10 loss to the same opponents in round two.
The Wallabies, meanwhile, are still in search of their first victory after two losses to the world champions South Africa on home soil.
