GREAT DEBATE | WE PICK OUR SPRINGBOK STARTING XV TO FACE THE ALL BLACKS

Hot off the heels of their Test series win against a spirited Wales side, they kick off their 2022 Rugby Championship campaign this weekend in Nelspruit where they’ll host the All Blacks in the first of two back-to-back Test matches before they head to Johannesburg for another showdown on Saturday, 13 August.

But that isn’t the end of it!

It will be the 45th all-time match between South Africa and England, and although the Springboks haven’t beaten England at Twickenham since 2014, this year’s match takes on added significance in several ways.

It will be the last time the two sides will play against each other before the 2023 Rugby World Cup in France where (depending on results) they could meet again in the final in a rematch of the 2019 Rugby World Cup final in Japan – which Springbok fans all have very fond memories of!

With Covid-19 restrictions easing, people are making up for lost time, creating more memories and experiences with loved ones that they have missed out on over the last two years.
