Loftus Versfeld could be packed to capacity for Saturday’s Nations Championship Test between the Springboks and Scotland.
SARugbymag.co.za was reliably informed that by Thursday afternoon only 3,500 tickets remained, ranging from R750 to R2,500. The Pretoria venue holds 50,000.
This after SA Rugby was last week forced to slash ticket prices for the Ellis Park Test between the Boks and England after slow sales, resulting in a crowd of 52,790 at the 62,000-capacity stadium.

However, only 100 of Loftus Versfeld’s 400 private suites will reportedly be occupied for Saturday’s Test due to an ongoing dispute between suite holders and SA Rugby.
Suite holders who already pay annual rental fees must then pay SA Rugby again if they want to use their boxes for Test matches.
