After a perfect start to the Rugby Championship the Springboks now turn their attention to their biggest challenge, the All Blacks.
With first choice eighthman Jasper Wiese’s suspension having come to an end, it will be interesting to see if he slots straight in to start against the All Blacks
Thanks to two bonus point wins over the Wallabies Down Under, coupled with the All Blacks slipping up in their Rugby Championship opener against Argentina, before bouncing back in the second game, the Boks top the table on 10 points ahead of the All Blacks in second on five points. Flyhalf will be an interesting one, after Handre Pollard was not at his best against the Irish, while Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu has enjoyed a superb start to his international career, although he did struggle a bit in the past weekend’s win over Australia.
It thus could see any one of Grant Williams, Cobus Reinach and the returning Jaden Hendrikse in line to start, while even Morne van den Berg has impressed with the chances he has been given.With first choice eighthman Jasper Wiese’s long suspension having finally come to an end, it will be interesting to see if he slots straight into start against the All Blacks, or if he will be eased back in off the bench.
