Springboks coach Jacques Nienaber says his players would take offence to being branded a 'B' team and insists the main objective is to beat Wales on Saturday.
South Africa came out on top in a dramatic 32-29 encounter at Loftus Versfeld last Saturday, which Nienaber admits gave him the opportunity to experiment with selection this time ahead of the second Test in Bloemfontein. He's taken that chance by making 14 changes to the starting team, with lock Eben Etzebeth the only survivor.
While the Test is clearly being used to expose players with a view to the Rugby World Cup in France next year, it is still an extremely formidable challenge for Wayne Pivac's side. The 23 includes seven players that featured in the URC final, including Evan Roos who had an outstanding season, and Handre Pollard, fresh off a Top 14 success with Montpellier.
