Five changes have been made to the Junior Boks team that beat Fiji for the clash against Argentina on Thursday.
The South Africans opened their campaign with a big win against Fiji and now take on the physical Argentines in Stellenbosch.
Junior Springbok coach Bafana Nhleko has made five changes to his U20 team for their second match at the World Rugby U20 Championship on Thursday when they take on Argentina in Stellenbosch. Also, there are some changes on the bench, with the coach deciding to go into this game with six forwards and two backs as replacements.“When we faced them two months ago in Australia, as well as during a strong first-half showing against England on Saturday , Argentina displayed their impressive forward power, so we have to be prepared to deal with that,” said Nhleko about his selection.
