Springboks prepare for attack-minded Scotland clash

Springbok winger Canan Moodie has warned that Scotland pose a major attacking threat ahead of Saturday's Nations Championship match at Loftus Versfeld in Pretoria.

Moodie, who starts on the wing after being called into the matchday 23, said the visitors are a very dangerous and attack-minded side with strong ballplayers. He noted their recent win over Argentina in Cordoba showed how they spread the ball wide.

The 26-year-old drew on his experience facing Glasgow Warriors in the United Rugby Championship to highlight Scotland's style. He said the team has good preparation and must be ready in defence and on attack.

A victory would give the Springboks a 10th consecutive Test win after their 45-21 defeat of England last weekend. Coach Rassie Erasmus has made 10 changes for the Loftus Versfeld fixture.
