RUGBY – SOUTH Africa and New Zealand players have formed friendships off the field but the biggest respect the Springboks can show their opponents is to go hard at them for 80 minutes, captain Siya Kolisi said ahead of today’s second test in Cape Town.
Kolisi and All Blacks captain Ardie Savea have a long-standing friendship and attended church together, the Springboks skipper said following New Zealand’s deserved 33-16 first-test win in Johannesburg that has ignited the four-game series.
