We just want to rock up and play, says Steven Kitshoff

Loosehead prop Steven Kitshoff came off the bench in all four of those Tests against New Zealand, England, Italy and Wales, and while he may have broad shoulders, he is not carrying any baggage from those burdensome days for Bok rugby. “We’ve got full confidence in this team. We had a few unfortunate weekends back-to-back but it is not something we talk about.
He believes the All Blacks will be keen to divert the Springboks from what makes them tick and their pulses race. If Kitshoff is going to borrow from recent history, it is the Springboks’ performance in the scrum last weekend. He believes his team has built foundations on which they can build on Saturday.
