Rugby Championship Lineups

New Zealand vs South Africa

The All Blacks have welcomed the likes of Rieko Ioane, Ryan Crotty, Aaron Smith, Sam Cane, Liam Squire and Sam Whitelock to the starting line up. While Kane Hames has come into the starting lineup for the injured Joe Moody.

The Springboks have made three changes to their starting line up, all of which are in the forwards, with Jean-Luc du Preez replacing Jaco Kriel, Franco Mostert returns in place of Pieter-Steph du Toit and Ruan Dreyer starting for the injured Coenie Oosthuizen.


Australia vs Argentina


The Wallabies have only made one change to their starting line up with the experienced lock Rob Simmons replacing Rory Arnold. Izack Rodda and Marika Koroibete make appearances on the bench with the latter set to make his debut.

Argentina coach Daniel Hourcade has opted for a new-look backline with Martin Landajo starting at scrumhalf and Matias Orlando at No 13. The back-three sees a reshuffle with Ramiro Moyano coming into the starting side at wing and Matias Moroni moving from centre to wing. Emiliano Boffelli, who started on the wing last week, will feature at fullback against the Wallabies.

Hourcade has made one change to the pack that fronted the All Blacks in New Plymouth. Tomas Lezana will start at No 8 in place of Benjamin Macome.
