Seven uncapped Boks in preliminary World Cup squad

South Africa have named seven uncapped players in a 51-man squad called up for a team planning session in Cape Town next month ahead of the World Cup and international season.

Only three of those included – winger Lionel Mapoe, scrum-half Sarel Pretorius and loose forward Duane Vermeulen – are still to have any involvement with the Springbok squad.
