Munster's Jean Kleyn and RG Snyman have made South Africa's final 33-man squad for the upcoming World Cup. Kleyn is a former Ireland international and was part of the Irish side which travelled to the 2019 World Cup in Japan.
Due to new eligibility rules, he was picked for the Rugby Championship squad, and ultimately made the cut for the World Cup.
Kleyn and Snyman both played key roles in Munster's United Rugby Championship triumph last season. South Africa are in Pool B, alongside Ireland, Scotland, Tonga and Romania.
The Springboks will take on Ireland on September 23rd in Paris. The reigning World Champions will go into the tournament missing a number of key players, with centre Lukhanyo Am ruled out due to a knee injury.
