Johan Ackermann has confirmed that Rohan Janse van Rensburg will not be included in the Lions squad travelling to Argentina to face the Jaguares this Saturday.

Van Rensburg’s mother passed away last week, but the Bok centre opted to play against the Waratahs, scoring a brace of tries, and dedicated his performance to her.

Ackermann said that Janse van Rensburg had suffered an injury niggle against the Waratahs, but would also be afforded time now to be with his family.
