Rugby: Erasmus sticks to players that faced Australia to do the job against All Blacks

# Rugby: Springbok coach Rassie Erasmus stuck to the players who did duty in their opening two Rugby Championship matches against Australia for next month’s tour to New Zealand. With wingers Kurt-Lee Arendse and Edwill van der Merwe injured, Makazole Mapimpi will make the trip down under. The only forward that faced Australia to miss out on selection was utility forward Cobus Wiese, who has been placed on standby. Jasper Wiese is still serving a suspension and will only be eligible for the second encounter in Wellington.
