Springboks Split Squad for Argentina Tests

Springbok coach Rassie Erasmus has confirmed a split-squad strategy for the upcoming Rugby Championship matches against Argentina, allowing for rest and rotation of players after their recent victory over New Zealand. The Springboks are on track for Championship glory, needing just three log points in their remaining matches to secure the title. Erasmus noted that the split will enable the integration of fringe players while also giving first-choice members a break. The first match will be held in Argentina, followed by a home game against the same team, with the Springboks aiming to build depth and maintain their unbeaten record. Players like Malcolm Marx highlighted the need for improvement in their game performance, especially regarding breakdown accuracy. With Argentina's recent strong showing against Australia, the upcoming clashes are anticipated to be competitive.
