Watch Wales vs South Africa live streams, as the bulldozing world champions take their digger to the hosts' rock bottom. Below we have all the information on how to watch Wales vs South Africa from anywhere with details on worldwide TV channels, broadcasters, live streams and start times.
This is Wales' last chance to avoid going winless through the entire calendar year for the first time since 1937. It may also be the end of the road for Warren Gatland, who looks done with shielding the WRU, which should bear much of the responsibility for Welsh rugby's desperate current state.
Rassie Erasmus has expressed sympathy for his great sparring partner of old and opted to rest some of his big guns, Eben Etzebeth included, but there'll be no mercy from the Springboks' starters. Might they emulate the 96-13 trouncing of 1998?
