Damian de Allende - Facing Japan in London

The veteran Springbok centre Damian de Allende is champing at the bit and raring to go ahead of Saturday’s Test against Japan in London.

Damian de Allende, part of the Springbok squad that lifted the 2019 Rugby World Cup in Japan, warned that Saturday’s clash with the Brave Blossoms would be no walk in the park.
