Experienced lock Lood de Jager will join the Springboks in London on Monday as cover for Franco Mostert, who remained behind in South Africa on Sunday due to a family bereavement. The Boks are gearing up for their closing Castle Lager Rugby Championship encounter against the Pumas at the Allianz Stadium, Twickenham, on Saturday. De Jager suffered a niggle in the team’s record 43-10 victory against the All Blacks in Wellington, but fortunately for Springbok coach Rassie Erasmus, he has made a full recovery and is available for selection. The Boks will have a recovery day on Monday and return to the training field on Tuesday to begin their preparations for Saturday’s competition decider. “Fortunately, the time zone is similar to South Africa, so the players can jump straight back into action without any challenges.
