NCHE: AIM TO MATCH PUMAS PACK 'BLOW-FOR-BLOW'.

Powerhouse Springbok loosehead prop Ox Nche says that the Bok scrum is ready to match the tough Argentinians blow-for-blow in their Rugby Championship match in Santiago tomorrow (kick-off 11pm SA time).

The Los Pumas pack has always been a tough one to handle and is similar to the Bok pack in many ways, so it is set to be a terrific battle in the clash this weekend and could play a pivotal role in deciding which way the game swings.

Nche is bracing for a physical onslaught from the hosts and he believes it will be important to get the upper hand in the scrum early if they are to emerge on top.
