The Boks flew to Buenos Aires via Sao Paulo and flanker Ben-Jason Dixon said he was excited about travelling to Argentina for the first time - and the challenge lying in wait.

A victory on Saturday would see the Boks secure their first Rugby Championship title since 2019. Los Pumas are the only other team in the running for the title with two rounds remaining.

The Boks hold an eight-point lead at the top of the standings over Argentina, and while Dixon said a victory would be fantastic, they were aware of the effort it would take to topple the hosts, who have beaten New Zealand and Australia in the competition so far.

"It's amazing and so exciting to be here," Dixon told the official Springboks website.
