Springbok Jesse Kriel the test match against the All Blacks will present a completely different challenge for the Springboks on Saturday in Johannesburg at 17:00 (SA Time).
“The back-to-back wins against Australia were great, but that’s behind us, and we now have an exciting challenge ahead against New Zealand."
“Our focus now is to train as hard as possible. This is a massive Test for both teams, so it’s important that we are well prepared and have our systems in place.”
Kriel said while they could not control the result, they could control their effort.
“The intensity with which we play, and our effort is all that we can control,” said Kriel.
“Both teams are in a similar situation with new coaching staff and players after the RWC final, so this week will be about who prepares the best and uses their opportunities on the day."
“They have unbelievable players with a great skill set, and they play a fast game, so we know what we are up against this weekend.”
