Bryan Habana cleared all doubts regarding the Bok’s performance on Saturday’s test against England at Twickenham by bouncing back from an injury.
Arriving in London with a knee niggle on Monday, the 33-year-old veteran player gave Springbok’s head coach Allister Coetzee doubts on whether to select him for the upcoming game or not.
Thanks to Tuesday’s training session behind closed doors at the Latymer Upper School grounds in Northwest London and a thumbs-up from assistant coach Matt Proudfoot, Habana is more than ready for the game.
“He participated in full training today‚” Proudfoot said.
“We have a full squad to choose from.”
Judging from England’s record of winning all of their nine tests in 2016 under coach Eddie Jones, the Boks seriously do need a boost from the 123-test veteran.
Having Habana in the back three alongside JP Pietersen and perhaps fullback Willie le Roux‚ would add much needed experience in a crucial part of the pitch.
The trio have a combined 231 test caps.
Coetzee foreshadows England launching an aerial assault on the Boks at Twickenham on Saturday, hence the experienced trio would do some good for the Boks‚ especially since rain is predicted.
We at Entertainment_SA wish the Boks all the best of luck on Saturday’s test, we hope to see you bring it back home boys!
