Stormers rugby boss John Dobson and his Bristol equivalent Pat Lam will guide the Barbarians against Jamie Joseph’s All Blacks XV and 17 South African-born players feature among the match 23, with six Stormers players, including hooker Andre-Hugo Venter.
But it is big Bongi, a larger than life presence in the Boks journey to back to back World Cups, who will want to make a statement against the men in black.
