They've had a tough time on the road with matches in Europe and South Africa before coming to Australia. But we know from last year that when they spend a lot of time together it really unifies them, so we're expecting a torrid game."<\/p>\n The Argentina starting 15 contains eight players who took part in last year's historic win in the Tri-Nations tournament.<\/p>\n The backrow of Rodrigo Bruni, Marcos Kremer and Pablo Matera and second rowers Matias Alemanno and Guido Petti are all set to start again.<\/p>\n Julian Montoya will captain the team from hooker, taking the leadership role Matera filled in last year's match.<\/p>\n In the backs, only winger Bautista Delguy and five-eighth Nicolas Sanchez remain. <\/p>\n Sanchez reclaims the No.10 jersey from Domingo Miotti who started in the second of Argentina's two Rugby Championship Tests against South Africa on August 21.<\/p>\n Argentina lost both matches to the Springboks in South Africa.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
