On the back of impressive performances in Argentina’s test series win over Scotland, both Orlando and Moroni retain their places in the Argentina squad as they prepare to take on Australia in The Rugby Championship this August.
Argentina will host Australia for a two-match series with the first encounter taking place on Saturday 6 August in Mendoza and the second taking place a week later on Saturday 13 August in San Juan.
