BELHAR was the place to be on Wednesday, with the Springbok players strutting their stuff in front of a vrag local rugby fans. 

With the likes of Cheslin Kolbe, Manie Libbok and Handre Pollard signing autographs, mense from all walks of life were treated to a royal day at Erica Park, where the Boks were getting ready for Saturday’s Rugby Championship match against Australia at Cape Town Stadium. 

Jesse Kriel will lead the team in the absence of regular captain Siya Kolisi, who is out injured, as the world champions look to bounce back from last weekend’s disappointing 38-22 defeat to the Wallabies at Ellis Park. 

South Africa led 22-0 at one stage, before allowing the visitors back into the game. 

Will they return to winning ways innie Kaap this weekend?
