Rynhardt Elstadt and Herschel Jantjies to make Test debuts in Championship opener at Ellis Park

Springbok coach Rassie Erasmus has named experienced lock Eben Etzebeth as captain for the Rugby Championship clash against Australia at Ellis Park on Saturday.

Etzebeth will lead the Boks for the 12th time in a Test match when he troops on to the Ellis Park turf. Bok coach Rassie Erasmus revealed loose forward Rynhardt Elstadt and scrumhalf Herschel Jantjies would make their Test debuts on Saturday. Elstadt is picked at No6 flank in a loose trio that includes the experienced duo of Pieter-Steph du Toit and No8 Francois Louw.

“We have planned to mix things up in the first two Tests of the season‚ in order to give game time to as many of the players in our wider squad‚ and we believe this is the right combination to face a very good and competitive Australian side.
