BUENOS AIRES (Reuters) - Argentina’s most capped international Agustin Creevy has been given a chance to finish his international career in his home town after being named among the replacements for Saturday’s Rugby Championship clash against Australia in La Plata.

Former captain Creevy, who has 109 caps, has decided to end his international career and has the opportunity for an emotional send off in La Plata after being named on the bench by coach Felipe Contepomi on Thursday.
