On their new podcast, Kitshoff and Nyakane have come out firmly in support of Janse van Rensburg's decision to pursue international rugby with England. Both frame it simply: he wanted to test himself at the top level, South Africa never called, and England have. Kitshoff draws a direct parallel with Kyle Steyn's path to Scotland — a South African taking whatever door opens. Nyakane, with 65 Bok caps of his own, is characteristically pragmatic: the man's been playing brilliant rugby, he deserves the shot, and the nation that picks him is beside the point. The piece also canvasses fan reaction, which is broadly sympathetic from a personal standpoint even if some English supporters remain unconvinced he'll make the final squad — with Marchant, Lawrence, and Slade all cited ahead of him in the pecking order. The underlying tension for Bok fans is obvious: Erasmus has reportedly kept tabs on Janse van Rensburg, but watching and selecting are very different things, and the window is now closing.
