Veteran prop Trevor Nyakane says the Springboks want to “inflict pain” on Wales in an expected bruising battle at ‘The Begrafplaas’ in Bloemfontein on Saturday.
The 54-Test-capped tighthead will pack down with Thomas du Toit either side of hooker Joseph Dweba in a powerful but new-look front row as Jacques Nienaber’s charges look to clinch the three-Test series in Bloemfontein.
“It almost feels dry and as though there is not much oxygen, so it is a challenging field. That said, we know what the coaches expect of us so although we know it is going to be tough, we want to go out there and enjoy ourselves, and if we stick to the plan, hopefully things will go well.[funeral] then let it be, but for us it’s just to go out there and perform as well as the coaches want us to.”
