The Springboks touched down in Sydney on Sunday to kick-start preparations for two must-win Rugby Championship clashes with Argentina.
A nine-year drought for South Africa ended on Saturday when the Springboks put in a rousing performance in Sydney to beat the Wallabies 24-8 and claim a first victory on Australian soil since 2013. Given a history of tough Tests when the teams have met in Argentina, it might come as a surprise that the Pumas have only twice won at home against the visiting Boks, who have recorded 12 victories in 15 matches in Argentina, with one clash ending in a draw in Mendoza back in 2013.
