The Tri Nations trophy is up for grabs and both Argentina and New Zealand can go a long way to sealing the tournament when they face off in Newcastle today. Join The Roar for live scores from 7:45pm (AEDT).

With two games of the competition left to play, all three teams are sitting level on six points with a chance of taking out first place. The All Blacks have only today’s match left to wrap up the title, while Los Pumas are playing in both of the remaining games of the season.

As such, the Argentinians have their destiny firmly in their own hands: win both matches and they’ll be crowned champions.

However, a bonus-point win for New Zealand would wrap things up today and render next week’s final game between Argentina and Australia fairly superfluous thanks to the All Blacks’ excellent for and against.

There’s no guarantee of that result, or even of a Kiwi win today – they were shocked two weeks ago by the Pumas, who registered their first-ever win over New Zealand when they met at Bankwest Stadium.

That defeat has spurred Ian Foster into making three changes to his XV. While the backline is the same, all of Nepo Laulala, Scott Barrett and Akira Ioane have been added to the run-on pack.

Mario Ledesma, meanwhile, has made a massive ten changes to his starting side for their third game in as many weeks. Flyhalf Nicolas Sanchez, who has scored all of Los Pumas points this competition so far, Julian Montoya, Guido Petti, Marcos Kremer and captain Pablo Matera are the only players to have kept their spots in the side from last week’s draw with the Wallabies and, indeed, the win over New Zealand.
