Wallabies coach Michael Cheika says Argentina have handed Australian‑based halfback Tomas Cubelli his first Test start since last year's World Cup so he can stick it to his Aussie colleagues.

Cubelli is one of four changes Pumas coach Daniel Hourcade has made for the Wallabies clash in Perth.

Argentina has also been boosted by the return of flanker Juan Manuel Legui-zamon.

Santiago Gonzalez Iglesias replaces Hernandez at inside centre alongside Matias Moroni who moves in from the wing to complete the midfield partnership.

The All Blacks will meet the Springboks at 7.35pm tomorrow while the Wallabies face Argentina at 10.05pm.
 

Team: 15‑Joaquin Tuculet, 14‑Santiago Cordero, 13‑Matias Moroni, 12‑Santiago Gonzalez Iglesias, 11‑Lucas Gonzalez Amorosino, 10‑Nicolas Sanchez, 9‑Tomas Cubelli, 8‑Facundo Isa, 7‑Juan Manuel Leguizamon, 6‑Pablo Matera, 5‑Matias Alemanno, 4‑Javier Ortega Desio, 3‑Ramiro Herrera, 2‑Agustin Creevy, 1‑Nahuel Tetaz Chaparro.

Replacements: 16‑Julian Montoya, 17‑Lucas Noguera, 18‑Enrique Pieretto, 19‑Marcos Kremer, 20‑Leonardo Senatore, 21‑Martin Landajo, 22‑Gabriel Ascarate, 23‑Matias Orlando
