    Despite another sizeable loss at the hands of the All Blacks, the Pumas have gotten a closer look at their future options at first-five, and coach Mario Ledesma likes what he sees

    Despite another sizeable loss at the hands of the All Blacks, the Pumas have gotten a closer look at their future options at first-five, and coach Mario Ledesma likes what he sees


    Argentina captain and usual 10 Nicolas Sanchez missed last night's 36-13 defeat in Brisbane due to an ankle injury, opening the door for Santiago Carreras to start for the first time in his test career.

    Ledesma says the 23-year-old had a great week of preparation.



    Argentina remain winless in the Rugby Championship, rooted at the bottom of the table.

    By contrast the All Blacks are on top with a 10-point buffer, as well as the title of the world's best side to boast.

    They've overtaken South Africa in the world rankings who lost for a second successive week to the Wallabies 30-17.
