(Reuters) - Argentina’s home-based players will move out of quarantine in host nation Australia on Tuesday, allowing consultant Michael Cheika to work more closely with the group as they build towards a Tri-Nations series that also includes New Zealand.

The squad arrived in Sydney from a training camp in Uruguay on Oct. 6 and will now be able to resume normal training under head coach Mario Ledesma, who is excited to see the impact ex-Wallabies coach Cheika will have on the team.
