LONDON, Oct 1 (Reuters) – Mercurial flyhalf Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu has such a bag of tricks that not even his South Africa teammates know what he will do next and inside centre Damian de Allende believes it is vital they lay the platform for the 23-year-old to flourish. Feinberg-Mngomezulu put in a sensational individual performance when he crossed for three tries and scored a Springboks record 37 points in the 67-30 Rugby Championship defeat of Argentina in Durban last weekend. He has been selected again for South Africa’s final fixture against the self-same Argentines at Twickenham on Saturday, where his game-breaking abilities could be key in the bid to retain the trophy. "It's incredible (playing alongside Feinberg-Mngomezulu)," double World Cup winner De Allende told reporters on Wednesday. "I don't think Sacha knows what will happen next sometimes, which is a good thing. "I do try and help him on the field, chat to him and tell him where the space is. But sometimes he sees a space before anyone else. "And I think it's just important for, not just me, but all the guys around him to let him flourish and not take his time and space away. He can create a lot by himself." With a talent such as Feinberg-Mngomezulu, who plays with huge self-confidence, there will be days where things do not go to plan, but De Allende says they will keep backing him. "We must just make sure that we're there to support him when things aren't going that well, because they're not always going to work out," De Allende said. "But it was incredible to watch him on Saturday, he took those opportunities so well to score those tries. "Having said that, the work we did as a team to get into those positions was incredible. And I think Sacha knows that, and we must never forget that." South Africa will retain their Rugby Championship title with a bonus-point victory at Twickenham no matter what happens in the other match in Perth between Australia and New Zealand which kicks off earlier. A victory without a bonus point will likely also be enough given the Springboks' vastly superior points difference over the second-placed All Blacks.

(Updates with morning prices) By Sanchayaita Roy Oct 1 (Reuters) – Canada's commodity-heavy main stock index rose on Wednesday, led by materials, while investors assessed a partial U.S. government shutdown that threatened to delay key jobs data and potentially cloud the interest-rate outlook. Toronto's S&P/TSX composite index was up 0.41% at 30,147.28 points. The U.S. federal government shut down much of its operations on Wednesday as deep partisan divisions prevented Congress and the White House from reaching a funding deal, a standoff that could lead to the loss of thousands of federal jobs. Materials stocks gained 1.6% after gold prices rose to hit a new record high supported by safe-haven demand following the news. "Political uncertainty rises in the U.S. that can support sentiment for gold and therefore sentiment for the material sector and the TSX eventually," said Angelo Kourkafas, senior investment strategist at Edward Jones. The shutdown, which independent analysts warn could last longer than the budget-related closures of the past, comes as markets pin hopes on a dovish Federal Reserve policy, following two straight quarters of equity gains in the U.S. "A lot of what's going to determine the impact will likely hinge on how long this government shutdown lasts… the longer the disruption, the bigger the impact. But at the same time, the economic damage would likely be minimal in the context of a $30 trillion economy", Kourkafas added. Among other stocks, information and technology sub-index rose 1.5% with shares of Constellation Software gaining 3.6%. An index of healthcare shares rose 1.3% tracking gains in U.S. peers. Vancouver-based Lithium Americas jumped 20.8% after it said the U.S. Department of Energy has taken a 5% stake in the company, along with a separate 5% stake in its Thacker Pass lithium project joint venture with General Motors. On the data front, Canada's manufacturing sector contracted at a steeper pace in September as an uncertain trading environment weighed on production and new orders. South of the border, investors increased bets on a 25-basis-point rate cut by the Federal Reserve at its next meeting, after the ADP National Employment Report showed private sector jobs fell by 32,000 last month, following a revised 3,000 drop in August.
