Quade Cooper of the Wallabies kicks the ball through during The Rugby Championship match between the Australian Wallabies and the South Africa Springboks. Australia and Argentina's remaining clashes will be dead rubbers but Wallabies fans will be pleased with the improvement shown under coach Dave Rennie. South Africa managed one try, through centre Lukhanyo Am shortly after halftime, but drew two yellow cards in a flat performance. South Africa coach Jacques Nienaber apologised to fans, calling it his side's worst performance since a 32-19 loss to Argentina in Mendoza in 2018. The only sour point for the hosts was a broken arm for fullback Tom Banks sustained in a tackle with South Africa winger Sbu Nkosi.
