Kolisi and Nche ‘tracking pretty well’ for Springbok return, says Jones

Looking towards the match, Jones said that it would be two very prepared teams coming up against one another, with the All Blacks having played three tour matches against the South African franchises, while the Boks got good game time into some returning players against Argentina.

Injuries Kolisi was injured before their first Test of the season against England, and went on to miss all their Nations Championship games, then returned in their one-off Test against Argentina, only to be forced off with a hamstring injury in the first half.“New Zealand have had their franchise games, and we’ve had Argentina for some players, while a group of players remained behind in South Africa to do specific work,” explained Jones.
