First starts for Van den Berg, Nortje as Boks make 10 changes

Morne van den Berg (scrumhalf) and Ruan Nortje (lock) will earn their first Test starts in a Springbok team that shows 10 changes to the starting line-up for the Castle Lager Rugby Championship clash with the Wallabies at the Optus Stadium in Perth on Saturday.

Salmaan Moerat will captain the team from lock while regular captain Siya Kolisi is one of nine players from Saturday’s 33-7 victory who is rotated.

Marco van Staden (loose forward) is promoted from the bench to take Kolisi’s No 6 jersey, while the only players retaining starting places are Cheslin Kolbe (wing), Jesse Kriel (centre), Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu (flyhalf), Elrigh Louw (No 😎 and Pieter-Steph du Toit, who moves from lock to flanker).

The changes to the team were motivated by Springbok coach Rassie Erasmus’ desire to continue finding the balance between building momentum and expanding squad depth.
