JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) - Lions coach Swys de Bruin has returned to his post with the South African Super Rugby side after treatment for stress and says he is "ready to go" in his role as attack coach for the Springboks at the World Cup in Japan later in the year.

De Bruin left the Lions' Australasian tour four weeks ago and returned to South Africa on the advice of team doctor Rob Collins, but says he is ready to coach the side against the New South Wales Waratahs at Ellis Park on Saturday.
