'It honestly feels so good. We stayed in there, that second half was a tough grind.'
Argentina’s Los Pumas flanker Marcos Kremer is tackled by Australia’s Wallabies flanker Rob Valetini and hooker Matt Faessler during the Rugby Championship Test match between Argentina and Australia at the UNO Jorge Luis Hirschi Stadium in La Plata, Buenos Aires Province, on August 31, 2024.

Tries by Wallabies scrum-half Jake Gordon and flanker Rob Valetini cancelled out an early one for Argentina by No.8 Juan Martín Gonzalez. “But we built our way forward, scored a couple of good tries and created a couple of other chances. We have a lot of work to do but we’re pleased to get the four points.”
Australia struck back quickly when full-back Tom Wright punched a hole in the defence before Gordon took an inside pass to cross under the posts. The visitors had a massive let off when Pumas prop Thomas Gallo picked up from a close-range ruck and charged over, but lost control of the ball as he dived over the line.
