After a 47-12 first-test loss driven by a dominant USA first half, Hayden Groepes has overhauled his backline — six changes in total — for Friday's decider in Stellenbosch, with only right wing Siphumelele Mdlalose keeping her jersey. Julene Haas shifts to fullback, Hayley Hardneck gets the 10 jersey, and the original midfield pairing of Ronecia Gordon and Yamkela Funani — both late withdrawals last week — finally gets its first run together. Up front, two bench props earn starts and a reshuffled back row sees Yanelisa Plaatjie move to flank and Palesa Matee slot in at 8. The selection is shaped partly by injury attrition and partly by a stated commitment to expose the full training squad — including 18-year-old Denver-raised left wing Keira Snyman, flagged as part of SA Rugby's push to identify overseas-eligible talent. Groepes's message is straightforward: fix the process, apply pressure for longer periods, and be more accurate in the moments that matter.
