While during the window of July Erasmus he tested several players and combinations, the Head Coach South African confirmed that it will depend on more established equipment in the Championship rugby.

“We are around 36 boys for two Australian games and within those 36 there will be one or two boys with whom we will experience, but most of the team we will take it out of the boys that we believe are more settled and adapt better to how we want to play,”Erasmus said.

In addition, the Springboks coach mentioned: “The good thing is that we have a group of approximately 48 players that we have used this year, and there are a couple of them to which we would also like to give them opportunities, such as Jaden and Jordan (Hendrikse), Quan Horn, Renzo (Du Plessis). But this was a series in which we wanted to experience a bit, so getting the results we obtained is quite satisfactory. But Rugby Championship is definitely a step forward. “
