Boks captain says focus on clean tackling has been constantStrong All Blacks XV await in appetising Twickenham warm-up
The South Africa captain, Siya Kolisi, has revealed his team’s constant focus on tackle technique in guarding against the disciplinary trouble currently being experienced by England.
Steve Borthwick will be prevented from selecting his captain, Owen Farrell, and only specialist No 8, Billy Vunipola, for their pivotal pool opener against Argentina next month after both players were banned for dangerously high tackles during warm-up matches against Wales and Ireland respectively. Farrell is also banned for England’s second pool match, against Japan.
