Argentina XV Head Coach Pablo Bouza has confirmed a 25-man roster to travel to Brazil to play in the fifth and final round of the Americas Rugby Championship.
The Argentina XV is coming off a 54-21 round four victory against Canada in Rosario and has seen changes to the player personal for Brazil. Pumas Juan Manuel Leguziamón and Lucas González Amorosino are both to miss out. González Amorosino has been directly swapped with his Jaguares teammate, Ramiro Moyano. Of the starting XV that faced Canada Leguizamón is the only player missing.
The Argentina XV leads the competition with 17 competition points, three more than the second placed USA. A regulation win in São José dos Campos will therefore be sufficient to win the competition.
