Rookie Springbok prop Jan-Hendrik Wessels says this week’s newlook team will be going all out to replicate what last weekend’s side did to the Wallabies in Brisbane – win 33-7 and bank a bonus point.
Rookie Springbok prop Jan-Hendrik Wessels says this week's newlook team will be going all out to replicate what last weekend's side did to the Wallabies in Brisbane - win 33-7 and bank a bonus point.
But it a vastly different Bok side that will run out for the second match of the Rugby Championship, also against the Wallabies, but in Perth on this occasion, on Saturday (11.55am).
In all, Bok boss Rassie Erasmus has made 10 changes to the starting team and Wessels, scrumhalf Morne van den Berg and lock Ruan Nortje will each earn just their second Test caps. Wessels and Van den Berg debuted in the 64-21 win against Portugal last month, while Nortje's only Test so far was back in 2022, against Wales.
