OPINION: The readers have spoken and they have told South African coach Rassie Erasmus he should go for broke in Salta next week.

Erasmus, when he sits down to select the team to face Argentina, has to decide if he should go all out to win the Rugby Championship or build for the World Cup.

The Boks head the standings on seven points, one ahead of New Zealand (six) – with Australia (on four) an outside chance, while Los Pumas (two) are out of the running.

A bonus-point win in Buenos Aires will secure the Rugby Championship title for the first time for the Springboks.

Their last win was the Tri-Nations back in 2009.

The readers’ choices include a very powerful spine.

The @rugby365com readers want to see a team that includes Handré Pollard (82 percent of the votes), Duane Vermeulen (79 percent), Pieter-Steph du Toit (75 percent), Malcolm Marx (73 percent) and Eben Etzebeth (64 percent).
