Larger than usual Bok squad

Pollard and 39 other players can expect to be named in the first Springbok squad of 2018 next Saturday. Coach Rassie Erasmus will reveal his larger than usual squad after the Stormers versus the Lions meeting in Cape Town. Erasmus will name such a large group because he will leave 15 players in South Africa to prepare for the first test against England on June 9
