The selection has raised many eyebrows (and heart rates) given to the fact that the coaching staff have opted for a 7-1 split on the bench, with many questioning if the World Cup is the right time to implement this risky move.
While others may have some reservations, Koning says that we're the "only country with enormous depth" and while Ireland may bring in more backs in the second half to tire out ours, we will continue to use "blunt force".
Both Ford and Koning agree that "We're going to bulldoze Ireland into submission."
The Springboks play Ireland on Saturday at 9pm.
It's all about tactics and strategy.
