ETZEBETH CLEARED TO PLAY AND ADDED TO THE BOK BENCH
Springbok eighthman Jasper Wiese was a relieved man to finally see his mammoth six game ban from rugby come to an end, just in time to take on the All Blacks in a massive Rugby Championship match at Ellis Park on Saturday (5pm).
Wiese received a red card playing for his franchise side Leicester Tigers in their final game of the season, for picking a player up at a ruck and dumping him on his head, which led to the six game suspension.
Due to his club not having any franchise games since then, his suspension was served during the initial Boks internationals, missing the first six Tests of the season."
