The heat has been cranked up a notch or two on Springbok coach Jacques Nienaber, and for once the scourge of global warming isn't in the dock.

Nienaber finds himself nudging closer to the furnace after a defeat to the Wallabies that sees his record as head coach stand at 11 wins from 19 matches.

The often-maligned Peter de Villiers had a win return of 62%, while Heyneke Meyer and Jake White both have a win ratio of 66. Nick Mallett had a 71% success rate while Kitch Christie boasts a blemish-free record in his 14 Tests in charge. “That's obviously because of the losses. We all feel pressure because you want to produce for your country.

“The external pressure will always be there. And that's on all coaches. If you lose two games there will be external pressure on you.”
