Junior Springbok lock JD Hattingh, contesting for the ball against Uruguay, is one of four players who will start for the second time at the Junior World Championship as head coach Kevin Foote rotated his squad for the match against Georgia on Thursday.
Set-piece and physical dominance, coupled with their speed out wide, is what the Junior Springboks will look to use to upstage hosts Georgia in their second pool clash of the Junior World Championship.
Following a 104-7 victory over Uruguay in their opening match, head coach Kevin Foote will demand the same intensity and accuracy from his South African U20 side as they look to take another big step towards the knockout stages.
A victory on Thursday evening (6.30pm kick-off) in Tbilisi will all but secure their place in the playoffs as they look to successfully defend their world title.
Foote stuck to his word by rotating all but four players in his starting line-up as he looks to give his entire squad meaningful game time before the knockout stages.
