The Argentina national rugby team, Los Pumas, is adjusting its roster ahead of two upcoming test matches against Australia's Wallabies. The matches are scheduled for August 29 in Jujuy and September 5 in Mendoza.

Coach Felipe Contepomi has announced several roster changes. Second-rower Franco Molina returns to the squad, replacing Franco Carrera. Additionally, Pablo Matera and Mayco Vivas are expected to join the training camp on Thursday due to personal reasons; they will be temporarily replaced by development players Agustín Sarelli and Martín Vaca.

The squad faces several absences due to injury and unavailability. Senior players including captain Julián Montoya, Santiago Chocobares, Bautista Delguy, and Marcos Kremer will not participate in the series. Other players sidelined by injury include Thomas Gallo, Juan Martin González, Juan Cruz Mallía, and Pedro Rubiolo.
