Flyhalf Johan Goosen has been included in the Bulls side that will be captained by Nizaam Carr in their match against South Africa A in Cape Town on Saturday.
The Springboks are said to be searching for an opponent to replace the called-off second Test against Georgia. SA Rugby magazine readers were pretty clear in nominating a winning candidate, and even more emphatic that it shouldn’t be the Sharks!
Jacques Nienaber will reap short and long-term benefits by selecting an A and B side across five international matches in July, writes JON CARDINELLI.
