The Springboks and Ireland clash in a monstrous second Test of the Incoming Series at Kings Park in Durban on Saturday evening (kick-off 5pm), with the series firmly on the line.
The Boks clinched an exciting 27-20 win in the opening Test at Loftus in Pretoria a week ago and they will be eager to seal the series win, while Ireland will be desperate to level things up.
Another tight tussle is expected in Durban and the game could come down to how either sides game breakers influence the contest. Here are three from each side:
Springboks Handre PollardThe Springbok flyhalf produced a rather underwhelming performance in the first Test, missing a number of shots at goal, which could have made the win a lot easier, while he also wasnt as prevalent on attack as he usually is.
Whether it was just an off day, or if he is taking a bit of time to adjust to new attack coach Tony Browns system, Pollard is undeniably a game changer. He will be desperate to bounce back from his average performance in the opening Test with a big showing in the second, just to remind people how important a cog he is in the Bok system.
