With the Springboks' mid-year Test campaign looming, players have one last chance to impress the selectors before the squad announcement.
With just over a month to go until South Africa’s first Test of the year, the Springboks are scheduled to announce their squad for the bulk of the international season next Saturday.The first Test of the season, against Wales, will be played at Twickenham Stadium, a neutral venue for both sides, before the South Africans return home for their much-anticipated two-Test series against Ireland and a historic showdown against Portugal, also on home soil.
Counting down from today, Rassie Erasmus’ first post-World Cup Springbok squad will be named exactly week on from today.South Africa could potentially have three local sides participate in the URC quarters, with the Bulls and Stormers having already qualified and the Lions still in with a shot of making the top eight later today.
