SYDNEY (Reuters) - Australia and Argentina are in the process of rebuilding towards the 2019 World Cup but test rugby is a results-based business and both will be desperate for a first Rugby Championship win of the season when they meet in Canberra on Saturday.

Wallabies coach Michael Cheika might only have tinkered around the edges of the team that drew 23-23 with South Africa last week but winger Marika Koroibete would become the 22nd new cap blooded in the last two seasons if he comes off the bench.
