A decision on the Springboks' participation in the 2020 Rugby Championship has not been finalised yet, and SA Rugby has been given more time to weigh up their options.
SANZAAR announced overnight that following a chief executives’ teleconference call on Tuesday 13 October, the SANZAAR member unions have agreed to provide SA Rugby with an additional 48 hours to finalise its internal stakeholder discussions on participation.
This will now delay the scheduled departure of the Springboks from South Africa to Australia.
SANZAAR said it would provide an update on the resolution of these discussions and a timetable for the Springboks participation in the Rugby Championship when available in the coming days.
