South Africa hope to finish poor tour on a high against All Blacks

South Africa captain Siya Kolisi has promised maximum effort from his side in their final Rugby Championship clash with old foes New Zealand on the Gold Coast today as they look to end a disappointing tour Down Under with a victory.

The world champions have endured an arduous four months of COVID-19 bubble life, with many of the players having been in restricted camps since the start of June ahead of their victorious British & Irish Lions series.

The Springboks season does not end with today’s game as they will head to Britain to face Wales, Scotland and England, starting with the first test in Cardiff on Nov. 6.
