Here is my Rugby Championship prediction for Round 2.
Argentina v South Africa
Having won the home fixture, South Africa now face Argentina in the away leg, but they’ve only got to go to Port Elizabeth again.

No guarantees though. Be just my luck for 5 bench players to come on & score! Plenty of regular All Blacks on my bench too. But I coped it badly in Round 1. 20 Aug 17:06
