Bok coach looks to Herschel and Elton for the x-factor against the Wallabies

17 July 2019 - 17:58Jantjies and Jantjies is not the name of a law firm but the new Springbok scrumhalf and flyhalf sheriff combination in town for Saturday’s Rugby Championship opener against Australia at Ellis Park.

Herschel is one of three debutants‚ with former Stormers and current Toulouse loose-forward Rynhardt Elstadt and Bulls loosehead prop Lizo Gqoboka making their international bows. Elstadt will start at flank while Gqoboka will come off the bench. “When Herschel came up against one of the best guys in Super Rugby‚ he stood his ground and had some wonderfully consistent games‚” Erasmus said. “He’s slotted in really well and it’s helped that there’s a few Stormers guys in the Springbok squad.

Eben Etzebeth‚ who will captain the side‚ starts alongside Lood de Jager, while Pieter-Steph du Toit and Francois Louw complete the back row. A front row of Tendai “Beast” Mtawarira‚ Bongi Mbonambi and Trevor Nyakane cannot be laughed at.
