All Blacks flanker Sam Cane admits that South Africa would push his side to the limit in this week’s Rugby Championship clash.

The All Blacks have won all their matches but only after frights against Australia and Argentina and struggling with their skill execution.

Coach Steve Hansen confirmed Aaron Smith would return to the Test No.9 jumper with his bullet passing a major asset.

The likes of Sam Whitelock, Ryan Crotty and Sam Cane, who started on the bench against Argentina are also near‑certainties to slot back into the fifteen.

Hansen says South Africa are playing really well where they seem to be incredibly tight with each other, so they're building something from a cultural point of view that will make them more dangerous.

The All Blacks will take on South Africa at 7.35pm this Saturday.
