Springboks Director of Rugby Rassie Erasmus has hinted at a trio of potential changes for the Rugby World Cup semi-final with England.

Springboks Director of Rugby Rassie Erasmus is hyped up ahead of the Rugby World Cup semi-final against England and expects an epic battle.If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it as they say. However, Rassie Erasmus has intimated the defending champions might have to make a few alterations. South Africa eventually prevailed 29-28 in an absorbing clash against France on Sunday. Freshness is the name of the game.

“There is a temptation to bring Lukhanyo in this week and start Handre and Faf , as well as Canan , and we are also thinking of a six-two split on the bench,” said Erasmus. “Every player in our squad is fit so we have all 33 players to select from. We would also like to see what they do. If they go for a six-two split, then we’ll have to make some plans.

“We can also bring in a guy like Jean Kleyn who will bring some physicality against their tall lineout options. That’s probably the reason we are only announcing our team two days before the match.”South Africa’s eyes are firmly set on the Rugby World Cup semi-final against England, Springbok director of rugby Rassie Erasmus insisted.
