Will see when team is announced. You will know well from watching so much rugby but looks like too many Sharks and not enough Lions and surely must be some Cheetahs in with a chance. Is this your team for first test where no players from English Premiership allowed? Think Willie le Roux and Faf de Klerk must have a chance. Werner Kruger from Scarlets could be a surprise pick…
