IT’S not rocket science — this will be a huge battle.

- LEIGHTON KOOPMAN

With those simple words, Springbok scrumhalf Cobus Reinach summed up exactly what they're expecting against France tomorrow in Paris (10.10pm. kickoff) in their second match of the November tour.

This will be a rematch of the 2023 Rugby World Cup quarterfinal — a clash South Africa won 29-28, stunning the French and their fans. And with captain Siya Kolisi running out for his 100th Test, the Boks aim to replicate that memorable night under the Parisian sky.

Head coach Rassie Erasmus, in charge of his 50th Test, has named an almost full-strength side, apart from the injured loosehead Ox Nché, and the Boks know full well the emotion and determination they'll face.
