The Springboks and All Blacks meet in a second 2022 Rugby Championship match at Ellis Park on Saturday, with kick-off at 5pm. The Boks will be a confident bunch after beating the same All Blacks team 26-10 in Mbombela a week ago, while the visitors to South Africa will be out to end a poor run of form which has seen them lose five of their last six matches.— if the All Blacks lose again it is almost a given he will get the sack. Captain Sam Cane is also understood to be close to being relieved of the leadership duties.Kick-off is 5pm. Updates will appear below. Please refresh the browser tab if required.
Ellis Park is expected to be buzzing today, with the sold-out signs going up weeks ago already, for what should be another thrilling match between the great rivals. Both coaches have made changes to their lineups from Mbombela, with Boks boss Jacques Nienaber bringing in fit-again Duane Vermeulen at No 8, while Ox Nche, Joseph Dweba and Jesse Kriel will also start for the home team.
