Ronnie Rivers is their only other active running back; Zach Evans was inactivated, too.A year ago, Akers reportedly requested a trade and missed two ensuing games.

Springboks gamble by calling up flyhalf Pollard for injured hooker Marx at the Rugby World Cup

Published Fri, 27 Dec 2024 10:10:26 GMT

BORDEAUX, France (AP) — South Africa called up flyhalf Handre Pollard to replace injured hooker Malcolm Marx at the Rugby World Cup on Sunday, leaving the Springboks with a front-row gamble for their title defense in France.While Pollard’s addition gives South Africa the No. 10 who guided it to World Cup victory four years ago, there is just one specialist hooker in the squad in Bongi Mbonambi.Instead of calling another front-rower in after Marx’s tournament-ending knee injury, Springboks coach Jacques Nienaber said he was confident he would be able to lean on two loose forwards in Deon Fourie and Marco van Staden to step in as hookers for the rest of the tournament.Both of them have played in that position previously in their careers, but both came to the World Cup as flankers.Fourie came off the bench to replace Mbonambi at hooker in South Africa’s 76-0 win over underdog Romania at the World Cup earlier Sunday in Bordeaux. Van Staden, who started the game as a fl...
