Italy beat Australia 28-27 last Saturday and will be eyeing another big scalp against the Boks, who are winless so far on tour. In a fairly unorthodox move, the Springbok coach was joined by the Director of Rugby in the team announcement press conference. “It is not having a go at the referee because if that was having a go at the referee, I don’t think Wayne Barnes will make all of those bad decisions. He is the number one referee in the world, he has more than 100 test matches. It is obviously something on our side that we have to fix and again if people think South African supporters would like to understand that and then if people put a narrative to that that I can’t control unfortunately,” says Erasmus.

Italy’s win over Australia last Saturday has surely raised the hackles of the Boks. Coach Jacques Nienaber says a loss would be a backward step.
