Wallabies skipper, Michael Hooper pinpointed Argentina playmaker Nicolas Sanchez, along with former Wallabies coach Michael Cheika, as threats as Australia look to avoid the embarrassing fate of New Zealand.

Australia head into tomorrow’s Tri Nations sell-out clash against the Pumas in Newcastle buoyed by upsetting the All Blacks a fortnight ago.

But Argentina's even more stunning 25-15 victory over Ian Foster's men quickly blew away any Australian complacency.

Hooper says they are fully aware of what they are capable of.

He says Argentina showed so much heart and good discipline against New Zealand.

The Wallabies will face Argentina at 8.45pm tomorrow.
