PSDT discusses Springboks & the Six Nations
- 1665
Springbok hard man Pieter-Steph du Toit has spoken out regarding the notion of South Africa joining the Six Nations in the future.
The Boks are contractually committed to The Rugby Championship until 2025 but, after that, are unbound.
"My personal opinion is it would be sad to leave the Rugby Championship and not play against New Zealand, Australia and Argentina, but I guess there also comes a stage where you have to move on," du Toit told the Daily Mail.
"There are definitely pros and cons in terms of moving from the Rugby Championship. Everything changes and you just have to adapt to it.
"As players we struggle to sleep when we go to New Zealand and Australia and it's the same for them when they come to South Africa. It plays a massive role. It might be a bit easier going north with the travelling. I think that would definitely be one of the positives and would definitely make it a lot better in terms of preparation.”
