Burger has been ruled out and Brussow does indeed come into the squad and starts.They are given Burger as much time as possible but if he is ruled out, I can’t see them overlooking Brussow given the way he has performed this year.

Not a bad side. Personally, I would have started Morne instead of Ruan, dropped Adi (from the 22) for Fourie and got Kanko onto the bench.
