*****
Kia ora, good evening and welcome to Newshub's live coverage of the Rugby Championship rematch between the All Blacks and Argentina at Hamilton's FMG Stadium.
After another weak in the desperate decline of this programme, the NZ side will try to bounce back from another historic defeat at the hands of the Pumas at Christchurch, when they seemed to be the better side for the first half, but let their rivals in the contest through their own indiscipline.
His job now seemingly safe until after next year's World Cup, coach Ian Foster has chosen to stick with his starting XV and hope that they can reduce their penalty count, before unleashing a bench that has been bolstered by the returns of Dane Coles, Brodie Retallick, Dalton Papali'i and Beauden Barrett.
Argentina find themselves at the top of the Rugby Championship table, with titleholders New Zealand and world champions South Africa strangely languishing at the bottom.
You can tell former Wallabies coach Michael Chieka is enjoying his role in the All Blacks' downfall, while former NZ Kiwis league coach David Kidwell basked in his return to his hometown, masterminding a Pumas defensive wall that refused to yield in the dying moments.

All Blacks players must back up support for embattled coach Foster with actions
Ollie Ritchie
OPINION: The day after the All Blacks' win at Ellis Park - a win that secured Ian Foster's future as head coach and tipped the scales back in his favour through to the Rugby World Cup - senior players made an unscheduled appearance at his morning media call.
They didn't need to be there, they certainly didn't have to be there, but they wanted to be there.
They wanted to show they had his back, wanted to present a united front in an All Blacks team that had been put through the wringer all year.
They wanted to show NZ Rugby and the New Zealand public they had Foster's back.
Well, a fortnight later, on a rather mild night in Christchurch, they undid it all.
All the public support they'd gone out of their way to show suddenly meant nothing, after an All Blacks capitulation that put Foster's future once again back in the headlines.
The onfield leadership went missing, as the All Blacks failed to adjust to referee Nika Amashukeli's interpretations, succumbing to repeated infringements, as the Pumas kicked their way to a historic victory.
That is not a coaching issue, that is an onfield leadership issue, and with every penalty Emiliano Boffeli knocked over, with every All Black offside, ruck infringement and breakdown penalty, the pressure on Foster intensified.
That is no way to back up your public showing of support. Foster deserved better from his players in his first test since being retained through to the World Cup.
What he didn't deserve was a performance that poured even more scrutiny on his coaching future.
They have a chance to make sure their actions match their words in Hamilton on Saturday night.
The noise around their coach's future is going to become deafening if they can't.
