Michael Cheika has made two changes to his Argentina team for this Saturday’s Rugby Championship finale versus the Springboks in Durban. The Pumas had their hopes of winning a first-ever TRC title extinguished by last weekend’s defeat to South Africa in Buenos Aires and the reaction to the 36-20 loss has been felt in the backline as the starting pack will remain unchanged.

Argentina, on this occasion, have opted to start with Juan Imhoff on the left wing in place of Lucio Cinti while Matias Moroni – a try-scoring sub in round five – is promoted from the bench by Cheika to take over from Matias Orlando in the midfield. Both Cinti and Orlando have been excluded from the match day 23.

As regards the replacements, Argentina have made three alterations for their round six match with the Springboks. Mayco Vivas is named as replacement loosehead in place of last week’s sub Thomas Gallo, the uncapped Pedro Rubiolo takes over the back row cover role from Rodrigo Bruni while Bautista Delguy is at No23 following Moroni’s elevation into the starting line-up.

The Springboks also limited the changes to their starting line-up to two when they unveiled their selection earlier this week, but they reconfigured their bench cover by opting to go with six forwards and just two backs as they look to pip the All Blacks to the title.

Leinster cleanse palette with record URC scoreline against Zebre

My name is Solenn Bonnet, and I am a single mother navigating the challenges of raising my two-year-old child while trying to make ends meet. I came across a trading platform that promised astonishing daily profits of 18%. The allure of such a high return on investment was too tempting to resist, and I found myself drawn into cryptocurrency trading. Excited by the prospect of financial freedom, I invested a significant amount of my savings, totaling over 5.7 BTC. However, what started as a hopeful venture quickly turned into a nightmare. The platform was a scam, and I lost everything I had invested. The emotional toll of this loss was immense; I felt devastated and helpless, struggling to provide for my child and keep up with my bills. In my desperate attempt to recover my funds, I sought help from various recovery experts. Unfortunately, I encountered numerous fraudulent individuals who claimed they could help me retrieve my lost money. Each time I reached out, I was met with disappointment and further scams, which only deepened my despair. Last year was one of the most challenging periods of my life, filled with anxiety and uncertainty about my financial future. Feeling overwhelmed and at a loss, I confided in a close friend from church about my situation. She listened compassionately and shared her own experiences with financial difficulties. Understanding my plight, she introduced me to Tech Cyber Force Recovery, a group of skilled hackers known for their expertise in recovering lost funds. Skeptical yet hopeful, I decided to reach out to them as a last resort. Their services came at a higher cost, but my friend generously offered to help me with a partial payment. I was amazed by how quickly they responded and began the recovery process. Their team was professional, efficient, and incredibly supportive throughout the entire ordeal. To my relief, they successfully recovered more than I had lost to those heartless scammers. This was truly transformative, and I felt a sense of relief and gratitude that I hadn’t felt in a long time. I strongly encourage anyone who has faced similar challenges or fallen victim to scams to reach out to Tech Cyber Force Recovery. If you’ve invested in a fraudulent platform like I did, they are highly capable of helping you reclaim your hard-earned money. Don’t lose hope; there is a way to recover what you’ve lost.
