Two tries from flanker Fraser McReight helped Australia edge past the world champions in arguably the Wallabies' best display of the year so far. Last weekend's match saw Australia lose Tom White to a yellow card after half an hour but the host's defence held firm for a memorable win.
South Africa have made eight changes to their team for today's clash, with head coach Jacques Nienaber opting to move Damian Willemse to fly-half and put Jesse Kriel into the centres, amid an injury crisis that has placed Handre Pollard, Lukhanyo Am and Pieter-Steph du Toit on the sidelines.
Australia coach Dave Rennie has meanwhile named an unchanged side for this game at the Allianz Stadium in Sydney. Follow our guide as we explain all the ways to watch an Australia vs South Africa live stream online from anywhere.

How to live stream Australia vs South Africa from outside your country
If you're outside your country of residence - whether that be the UK or anywhere else - and try to start streaming the rugby via your native broadcaster, you'll soon discover that you can't, as it's location restricted. But there is a way to tune in regardless.
By downloading and installing a VPN, you can effectively trick your computer into thinking that it's back at home. That way you can enjoy your home coverage without having to find an illegal stream - assuming you comply with the broadcaster's fine print, of course - specifically its terms and conditions.

2. Connect to the appropriate server location - open the VPN app, hit 'choose location' and select the appropriate location
