A number of changes are expected to be made to the 35-man training squad that was named for the Welsh game, for the incoming Irish series.
A number of changes are thus expected to be made to the 35-man training squad that was named for the Welsh game, which featured 11 uncapped players, with that number now down to seven afterPlayers based in the UK and Europe such as Bok captain Siya Kolisi, Steven Kitshoff, Cobus Reinach, Jean Kleyn and Trevor Nyakane could be picked, while some injured players like Lukhanyo Am and Damian Willemse could make their return if fit enough.
“One week we might have four or five guys extra training with us to get the experience of being in the squad. Like Andre-Hugo Venter and Neethling , as well as a few of the Bulls guys who haven’t had this experience yet. “We have new coaches and had a few players making their debuts, so there were areas of the game that were not as good as we would have liked it to be, but there was certainly no lack of effort and intensity, and we realise it will take time for things to come together nicely.
