Rugby-Mapimpi hopes Boks can sharpen up ahead of Argentina test


(Reuters) - Wing Makazole Mapimpi says South Africa must be more precise in the opponents' 22 as they hope an early arrival in Buenos Aires will help with preparations for the crucial Rugby Championship clash with Argentina on Sept. 17.

The Springboks flew directly to Argentina this week without returning home from Australia, and are looking to build on a comprehensive 24-8 win over the Wallabies in Sydney last Saturday.
