#WATCH: Siya spotted at training
Springboks captain Siya Kolisi took part in a training session on Wednesday morning at the Cape Town Stadium.
Kolisi was seen stretching and conversing with Eben Etzebeth and Jesse Kriel in the middle of the field as the World Champs prepared for the crucial Rugby Championship Round Four clash against All Blacks on Saturday.
Kolisi suffered a blow to the face in a collision with All Black Sam Cane in the 31-27 win at Ellis Park last Saturday. The Bok captain attended the post-match press conference with the right side of his face severely swollen.
After the match head coach Rassie Erasmus said it might be a fractured cheekbone.

Bulls wing Canan Moodie, who hasn’t played for the Springboks this year because of a hand injury, was also present at the training.
Meanwhile, wings Kurt-Lee Arendse and Makazole Mapimpi were the noticeable absentees.
Arendse is set to miss the match after he suffered a concussion against the All Blacks and Mapimpi is in Durban after he was released from the camp to play Currie Cup for the Sharks.
The Springboks are set to announce their team to face the All Blacks on Thursday.
