The Springboks are relishing the chance to unleash their World Cup winning loose forward trio to dish out further torment for the All Blacks

The Springboks are relishing the chance to unleash their World Cup winning loose forward trio to dish out further torment for the All Blacks

13 August 2022

Tomorrow morning's test at Ellis Park will be the first time since the 2019 final in Yokohama that Siya Kolisi , Pieter-Steph du Toit and Duane Vermeulen have lined up together in the green jersey.

That's because number eight Vermeulen is back from knee surgery for the match, while Du Toit suffered injuries last year.

Assistant coach Mzwandile Stick is excited to have Vermeulen back.

Live Commentary tomorrow morning from 3:05am on Newstalk ZB and iHeartRadio.
