A group of 33 players have been selected for the second Springbok preparation camp in Durban for three days next week. | Sport24news
The group includes 10 players involved in the URC Grand Final in Cape Town on Saturday, in which Munster were crowned champions after a 19-14 win over the Stormers. Resident rugby writer Rob Houwing gives you his expert views on what's going on between the poles.
Springbok coach Jacques Nienaber says the aim is to build on the foundation from the first camp while incorporating the players that have been added to the group. "This will mark the first time most of the players will be in the national set-up this season, as the alignment camps in Cape Town and Stellenbosch and the last preparation camp in Durban included mainly the locally based players. We did, however, have online alignment sessions with the overseas-based players, so we are excited about this opportunity to work with them in person.”
