BORDEAUX, France : South Africa’s coaching team watched flyhalf Handre Pollard in action for Leicester Tigers in a friendly against Sale Sharks on Friday night, as they weigh up how to replace injured hooker Malcolm Marx in their Rugby World Cup squad.

Fourie has played hooker before, but not since 2018, while Van Staden has trained there with the Boks this year. He came off the bench for Leicester and helped them to an 18-14 win over Sale, although he also picked up a yellow card. "We watched him yesterday, he had about 30 minutes. Also, we have got a guy like Joseph Dweba who's currently back in South Africa and in full shape."
