That's why the French are stuggling. It's not just a coaching problem

Too many foreigners play in the French top 14 not enough french talent coming through the system. It's like SA struggling because a lot of talent has gone abroad

Noves' France are great to watch but they never score tries and always die off after 60 minutes

The teams take to the field for the anthems

I can't see Guy Noves staying as France coach if they loose today. it would mean only 4 wins in there last 11 games

Hello and welcome to Ultimate Rugby's live coverage of this international test clash between South Africa and France at Ellis Park. When these sides met last week it was the Springboks who managed to secure a comprehensive victory, beating the French by 37-15. Both sides played some breathtaking rugby last week and the respective head coaches will be looking for a similar performance level this weekend. With France out for revenge and the Boks looking to clinch the series whitewash, this promises to be a real cracker. Stay tuned for commentary and live score updates.

Warren Whiteley has withdrawn from the match with a groin injury. Jaco Kriel replaces him in the starting XV, while Jean-Luc du Preez moves to no.8. Lood de Jager has been drafted onto the bench and Eben Etzebeth will captain the side.

Raymond Rhule shouldn't be in the team at all

Coenie and Kitshoff should be starting
