| Springbok coach Heyneke Meyer named his team to play against Argentina for their Castle Lager Rugby Championship opener to be played on August 17 at the FNB Stadium. Lock Juandre Kruger will start ahead of Flip van der Merwe while Duane Vermeulen comes in for the injured Pierre Spies. Prop Gurthro Steenkamp makes a return on the bench along with Japan-based scrumhalf Fourie du Preez. Meyer said that Kruger's return to the starting line-up from the team that last played against Samoa is because Kruger is the best number five in the country and will be valuable against a strong Argentine lineout.........
