SYDNEY (Reuters) - Last week's Rugby Championship loss to Argentina may have been the "hardest" of Will Genia's 94-test career, but the scrumhalf said no one should doubt the pride the Wallabies had in the jersey or their ability to respond in the reverse fixture.

A fifth defeat in seven tests and the first at home to the Pumas in 35 years, sent twice former World Cup winners Australia tumbling to seventh in the world rankings, an unprecedented low.
