Kevin Putt: Former Springbok previews the first clash between the All Blacks and Springboks
About this episode
A big showdown in Johannesburg this weekend.
The All Blacks are facing the Springboks for the first time on their tour of South Africa, clashing at Ellis Park at 3am Sunday.
The Kiwi side is on a winning streak against the domestic sides, but the Springboks have won four of the past five meetings.
Former Springbok Kevin Putt told Ryan Bridge the South African side is taking physicality to a whole new level.
He says if they decide to beat the All Blacks up instead of just beating them, it could be a long day at the office.
