Speaking ahead of the match, Hunter said: "We're happy with what we need to improve on after the Scotland game, the lads have been working hard to get into the right frame of mind to face South Africa.

"We've seen that the pressure of getting out of your Pool is immense and the Springboks game will be a huge test for us. They're a physical side, so we'll have to make sure we front up and play a disciplined game against them."
