Stream Australia v Argentina from anywhere
Lucky enough to be on vacation overseas this weekend? You can make your trip even better by watching your usual Rugby Championship live stream from wherever you are.
While geo-restrictions usually prevent you from tuning in as you would back home, the magic of a VPN (or Virtual Private Network) allows you to change the IP address of your smartphone, tablet or laptop, making it appear to be in any country in the world. VPNs also have the additional benefit of improving your internet security, which is great for peace of mind when you’re logging onto an unfamiliar Wi-Fi network.
The tech experts at Techradar test hundreds of VPNs for a living, and right now they reckon NordVPN is top of the world rankings.

Australia vs Argentina: Match Preview
There’s all to play for in this year’s tournament, with all four teams having won one and lost one of their first two fixtures. Australia shocked the rugby world by coming back from 22-0 down to beat the world champion Springboks 38-22 on their home turf. While they lost the second fixture 30-22, Joe Schmidt’s team have built on some impressive performances against the British & Irish Lions to re-establish themselves as a power in world rugby.
The Pumas, meanwhile, fell to a 41-24 defeat to New Zealand in their first fixture as the All Blacks leapfrogged South Africa to claim top spot in the world rankings. Argentina bounced back the following week, however, winning the follow-up tie 29-23 to claim their first ever home win against the All Blacks. This game subsequently feels too tight to call, even though the visitors have dominated the fixture in recent years.
The Wallabies welcome back captain Harry Wilson, who missed the second South Africa Test with a knee injury, and Tom Lynagh, who hasn’t played since sustaining a concussion in the final Lions Test. They’ll have to make do without their giant lock Will Skelton, who’s returned to his club side, La Rochelle. Tom Hooper moves moves forward from the back row to take his place, with Rob Valetini shifting to blindside flanker.
The Pumas have made three changes of their own. Fly-half Santiago Carreras replaces the injured Tomas Albornoz, while Marcos Kremer comes in for Joaquín Oviedo in a back row reshuffle. Joel Sclavi gets the nod over Pedro Delgado at tighthead.
