(Reuters) - South Africa coach Rassie Erasmus said his decision to make 10 changes to the side which thrashed Australia in their Rugby Championship opener was not a sign of disrespect ahead of the second match against Joe Schmidt's side in Perth on Saturday.
World Cup winners South Africa cruised to a 33-7 win over the Wallabies in Brisbane last weekend and have rested several of their established names as Erasmus gives more experience to his wider group.
