South Africa have confirmed fly-half Elton Jantjies and dietician Zeenat Simjee have been sent home ahead of Saturday's clash with Argentina amid reports the pair have been having an affair.
Both Jantjies and Simjee have returned to the Rainbow Nation, with South Africa gearing up to face Los Puma in the Rugby Championship, with the Springboks urging them to ‘attend to these personal reports’.
The pair aren't believed to have broken any team protocols, but SA Rugby says their absence will help to minimise any potential distractions as they continue their preparations for the showdown in Buenos Aires.
