**Rugby Championship Reaches Thrilling Conclusion**
This weekend, the Rugby Championship will come to a close, and for the first time in years, the title is still up for grabs. The stage is set for a thrilling finale, with Argentina seeking to make history by claiming their first-ever championship title.
In a remarkable turn of events, Argentina stunned South Africa last week, winning by a single point in Santiago. The two teams will face off again in South Africa, with the winner taking home the coveted trophy. Meanwhile, the Wallabies will travel to New Zealand to take on the All Blacks at Sky Stadium in Wellington. Although the Bledisloe Cup is no longer at stake, the Wallabies still have a mathematical chance to climb out of last place and leave the All Blacks with the wooden spoon.

* New Zealand vs. Australia, Sky Stadium, Wellington, 5:05pm AEST
* South Africa vs. Argentina, Mbombela Stadium, Nelspruit, 5pm SAST
