# Rugby: Scotland’s head coach, Gregor Townsend, describes the Springboks’ pack as the best in the world before today’s Nations Championship showdown at Loftus Versfeld in Pretoria. The Scots were only able to beat South Africa five times in the two sides’ 30 previous encounters. Townsend says they are preparing for a massive physical clash against the world champion after both sides claimed good victories in the first round – the Boks against England, and Scotland against Argentina. Kick-off is at 5.40 this afternoon.
