SYDNEY (Reuters) - Los Jaguares might be a fading memory from the intercontinental Super Rugby competition buried by the COVID-19 pandemic, but Pablo Matera is delivering weekly reminders of the quality of Argentine rugby in the new Pacific-oriented version.

The former Pumas skipper played his best game in the red shirt of the Canterbury Crusaders last weekend as the world's most successful provincial side beat Australia's top team, the ACT Brumbies, in Canberra.
