The Springboks are set to return to naming their team today, as they look to bounce back from their 24-17 loss to the All Blacks at Eden Park on Saturday.

Stuff.co stated that the two teams meet again at Sky Stadium in Wellington this Saturday, a venue where South Africa’s last two visits resulted in a draw in 2019 and a win in 2018.

They say another Springboks win this weekend will mean they retain the Freedom Cup for another year.

The All Blacks need another win to reclaim a trophy they won in 2023, but gave up with two defeats against their greatest rival in 2024.

The All Blacks will take on South Africa at 7.05pm Saturday at the Sky Stadium in Wellington.
