Springbok coach Peter de Villiers today recalled fullback Conrad Jantjes and left wing Jongi Nokwe to the Springbok team to face the Wallabies in the vital Vodacom Tri-Nations clash at the Absa Stadium on Saturday.
Jantjes replaces veteran Percy Montgomery who made his 100th international appearance last week against the All Blacks, while Nokwe earns his second cap in place of the injured Bryan Habana. The 2007 IRB Player of the Year was ruled out of action for ten days because of a hamstring injury he sustained against New Zealand in Cape Town.
