Perth – Unbeaten South Africa has made just one enforced change to its starting team to play the Wallabies at Suncorp Stadium on Saturday when it will aim to wrap up the 2009 Tri Nations series title.
Odwa Ndungane replaces injured winger JP Pietersen, who has returned home after injuring his hamstring in the 32-25 win over the Wallabies in Perth last Saturday.
There is also a change on the bench with Danie Rossouw coming in for injured lock Andries Bekker..
South Africa: Ruan Pienaar, Odwa Ndungane, Jaque Fourie, Jean de Villiers, Bryan Habana, Morne Steyn, Fourie du Preez; Pierre Spies, Juan Smith, Heinrich Brussow, Victor Matfield, Bakkies Botha, John Smit (capt), Bismarck du Plessis, Tendai Mtawarira. Reserves: Chiliboy Ralepelle, Jannie du Plessis, Danie Rossouw, Schalk Burger, Ricky Januarie, Adi Jacobs, Frans Steyn.
Well done Odwa!!
Wouldn’t it be AWESOME if we win the next two tests to stay unbeaten??
I’m sure no other team have won 6 from 6.
Go PDV’s Boks!!!
good luck Odders! Make us proud
It was the best move without unsettling the whole backline or playing someone out of position. So kudus to PdV.

Sharks are really thin on the ground Interesting article here in CT press only hope for WP to qualify for semis is to beat bulls and sharks when boks are away
looks like Oom is going to take the captancy again back to winning ways!!!
