A further positive Covid-19 test hit the South Africa squad on Monday as the Springboks suspended training four days out from their Test against Georgia.

Boks forward Lood de Jager returned a positive result during scheduled testing and his close contact with team-mates was such that the entire squad was forced into isolation.
