captain Siya Kolisi has urged their supporters not to lose hope as the team
attempts to get their Rugby Championship campaign back on track.
The world champions started slowly and then failed to convert pressure into points against the Wallabies in Adelaide last weekend, crashing 25-17 for their second straight tournament defeat.
That makes Saturday afternoon’s clash against Australia in Sydney a must-win for the Boks.
Kolisi says they are just as frustrated as the supporters by last weekend’s performance.

"Without the people, we can't do what we love and we
hope they don't give up on us because we worked really hard this week and
this game is important to us and want to take opportunities better.
"We totally understand that people have been frustrated and we have to better this week, we have no choice. No matter how the win comes, we need to chase it."
