Why Libbok is out and Feinberg-Mngomezulu is in

For the 1st test against Ireland, the Springboks went with a 6-2 split which means they only have two backs on the bench.


In a interview with the media, Rassie Erasmus explained why they went with Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu on the bench and not Manie Libbok.

"Sacha certainly brings something to the party and that is where Manie missed out. If your 12 goes down, Sacha can go to 12 because he played there for the Stormers. If your 15 goes down, he can cover that. The same with flyhalf. Manie is not so comfortable at 12 so that just makes more sence why we went with Sacha"
