Injury plague Australia has defeated Argentina 25-19 in the season's final match of the Rugby Championship with six penalties from Mike Harris and a try from Digby Ioane.

Argentina finished the Rugby Championship without a win in six matches.

The Pumas drew with South Africa 16-all for their only non loss of the campaign.

Australia played with what amounted to a "second team" with at least 15 potential starters out with injuries.

Meanwhile the All Blacks made a one hundred percent clean sweep of the Rugby Championship after defeating the Springboks 32-16 earlier this morning.
