    The All Blacks will need to be wary of a particular returning Springbok if the test in Wellington is close in the dying stages

    The All Blacks will need to be wary of a particular returning Springbok if the test in Wellington is close in the dying stages


    A decade ago, Francois Steyn kicked penalties from 53, 56 and 60 metres in Hamilton as South Africa completed a three-nil whitewash over the All Blacks.

    The now 32-year-old utility has been named on the bench for tonight's Rugby Championship encounter.

    South African first five Handre Pollard says Steyn might be ten years older but he can still knock them over from sixty out.

    Pollard says absolutely, that's not changed.

    The test kicks off at 7.35pm with full commentary on this station.
