Rugby: Number of changes expected in Bok squad for second Test against Italy

# Rugby: Springbok coach Rassie Erasmus is expected to make several changes to his squad for Saturday’s second Test against Italy in Gqeberha. This follows a not-so-impressive display in the first Test at Loftus. South Africa did outscore the visitors with six tries to three to win 42-24, but more was expected from the hosts after a half-time lead of 28-3. Erasmus wants to give as many players as possible game-time to build the strength of the squad and says the Boks must be imposing this time around.
