Argentina captain Julian Montoya will earn his 100th Test cap in the Rugby Championship clash with Australia in Santa Fe on Saturday.
Montoya will become Argentina’s fourth centurion, joining hooker Agustín Creevy, flyhalf Nicolás Sánchez and flank Pablo Matera.
Creevy retired from international rugby after earning his 110th Test cap in the controversial 20-19 defeat to the Wallabies last weekend.
Los Pumas are looking to bounce back after successive defeat to New Zealand and Australia, following their stunning 38-30 victory over the All Blacks in the opening round.
