Allister Coetzee wants Springboks to have high standards, like the All Blacks

A resurgent and confident Springboks have arrived in Auckland, armed with the game and the belief to beat the All Blacks in Saturday's Rugby Championship Test at Albany.

The class of 2017 has a very different look to the one who was here 12 months ago.

In six games during last year's Rugby Championship, the Springboks had two wins - compared to this year after three games they have two wins, and a draw.

"The big thing is the environment has changed completely," said Coetzee.

"In any high performance team sport you have to have a great team environment and I'm pleased to say that you can see how the players play for each other.

"They're enjoying it and we're growing and learning at every test match."

Coetzee believes the change in the Springboks is similar to what the All Blacks went through before they won the 2011 World Cup.

He also thinks the All Blacks are 'vulnerable' and backs his side to claim their first win in New Zealand since 2009.

"These are two teams that know each other very well.

"The big thing about this test coming up is that you've got to make sure you can execute on the day.

"Whether you've got weaknesses, somehow you can hang yourself up if you don't get it right.

"I don't see any weaknesses in the All Blacks side. I think they are vulnerable, but you still have to be at your best to exploit that."
