Springbok Player Ratings vs Samoa

Best of the Bench

Rugby365: 8/10 Frans Malherbe
Turned the Springboks’ fortunes around in the scrum when he came on in the second half and looked like a man possessed with ball in hand.

Sport24: 7.5/10 Lood de Jager
You just can’t seem to keep the spring-heeled young athlete out of the fulcrum of the action this year, whether he is starting or making an impact off the bench for the national cause. Took over the baton from a firing Matfield with ease – and no lack of venom — after 55 minutes.

OuGrote: 7.5/10 Lood de Jager
Carried on where Matfield left off in the lineouts and was a constant menace on attack with his powerful running.
