    Rassie Erasmus is keeping his team for the weekend's test against the All Blacks at fortress Eden Park more secret than usual


    The Springboks coach usually names his team on Tuesday - or in some cases Monday - for a Saturday match.

    This week he's chosen to keep it in-house until Thursday, the same day as the All Blacks naming.



    Erasmus will make a decision on Thursday over whether captain Siya Kolisi is fit to return.
