Johannesburg – Springbok scrumhalf Ross Cronje will miss Saturday’s third and final Test against France at Ellis Park because of delayed concussion symptoms, Springbok team management confirmed on Tuesday.
Cronje made his Springbok debut in Pretoria two weeks ago and followed up on his impressive performance with another very good showing in the Durban Test last Saturday, where the Springboks clinched the three-match series.
“Ross showed delayed symptoms of concussion on Monday and he will not be able to get through the recovery protocols in time for him to be considered for selection. We withdrew him from training yesterday and he will rest for the duration of the week,” Springbok team doctor Konrad von Hagen said on Tuesday.
Cronje therefore joins flank Oupa Mohoje on the sidelines for the final Test, after the Cheetahs loose forward was earlier this week also ruled out with concussion.
Cronje was in line to make his third appearance for the Springboks on his home ground in Johannesburg.
Francois Hougaard and Rudy Paige provide the Springboks with sufficient cover for this coming weekend, which means that no replacement will be called up to the Bok squad.
Springbok coach, Allister Coetzee, will announce his match-day 23 on Thursday.
Pretoria, Tuesday 20 June 2017 – SARS Customs officials intercepted 10 bags and 3 boxes with counterfeit goods estimated at R4.2-million at OR Tambo International Airport over one day on the long weekend.
On Thursday 15 June, three passengers from Hong Kong via Nairobi were linked to the 10 bags and 3 boxes filled with designer wrist watches, footwear and tracksuits. They have since been handed over to the counterfeit team and brand holder attorneys.
In separate incidents on 18 June, two passengers from Sao Paolo to Johannesburg that swallowed 49 cocaine bullets each with a combined weight of 0.820kg estimated at
R235 914.00 were intercepted, while a third was linked to three abandoned parcels that weighed 3kg and estimated at R863 000.00.
The two passengers were identified as drug mules and taken for X-ray that revealed foreign objects in their abdomen while the third was found with marks of a body wrap.
All three passengers and goods were handed over to the South African Police for further investigation.
Insurer Hollard planned “significant acquisitions” on the continent in the next few years and was partnering with global health insurer Cigna to offer health insurance to companies operating in Africa, said Brooks Mparutsa, executive director of Hollard’s international business.
Brooks Mparutsa, executive director of Hollard’s international business.
Hollard, which already has offices in Zambia, Namibia, Mozambique, Botswana and Ghana, hoped to finalise the acquisition of a health insurance company in Kenya by the end of 2017, Mparutsa said. It wanted to secure a life insurance licence in Ghana by August and conclude a transaction in Nigeria in the next 18 months.
Hollard was also in discussions over a possible partnership with Resolution Insurance in East Africa and was keen to do an acquisition in West Africa, Mparutsa said.
Hollard is a privately held insurance company, majority owned by the Enthoven family, which also own Nando’s.
At the end of 2015, it was SA’s second-largest short-term insurer, with an 11% share of the industry’s total premium income and ousting Old Mutual Insure, previously Mutual & Federal, from this position.
Hollard’s partnership with New York Stock Exchange-listed Cigna, dubbed Hollard Cigna Health, could see it break into a market that rivals have struggled to crack. Hollard is the distribution partner for Cigna.
Liberty Health, which provides medical expense cover to corporate customers in 10 African countries, continues to post losses. For the year to December, the unit’s loss rose more than 100% to R45m. MMI’s health business outside SA has also reported losses, although these narrowed for the six months to December.
The Hollard-Cigna partnership would provide health insurance, approved by in-country regulators, to multinationals operating across Africa, said Jason Stadler, president of Cigna’s international market division. Companies were inadequately served, with providers such as the British United Provident Association and Allianz focusing predominantly on the corporate expatriate market, Mparutsa said.
Hollard Cigna Health would serve expatriates and local employees of multinationals, including local companies with operations outside SA.
Cigna is in a strong position on the continent, having built up a network of 2,000 healthcare providers over decades.
In terms of the agreement, Cigna would be treated as a reinsurer, with a large portion of premium income ceded to it.
Stadler would not comment on the venture’s premium targets, saying only Cigna had “high growth aspirations”. Africa had a low insurance penetration and a growing burden of noncommunicable diseases, he said.

These regulations will primarily affect those between 20 and 35 years of age. The annual Council for Medical Schemes (CMS) report shows that children up to the age of 20 usually stay on their parents’ medical aid. Then you see a significant drop in the number of dependents between the ages of 20 to 35, and then the line goes up again. This is a clear indication that the young and healthy are exercising their freedom of choice to not have medical aid cover. This is the group that, until now, has often relied on hospital cash-back plans for catastrophe cover.
As a young and healthy person, you’re mostly at risk for some sort of catastrophe – an accident, a fall while cycling downhill, having your appendix removed – and that’s why this demographic has been buying hospital cash-back plans. But if you got cancer, it wouldn’t work, so it’s been a gamble, albeit one with some validity.
Legislated limitations
From 1 April 2017, payouts on hospital cash-back plans will be limited to R3,000 a day, with a maximum of R20,000 per year per insured life. The way it’s been restructured is that you’ll get very limited benefits from this kind of cover. It places the young and healthy at serious risk and they will need to rethink their cover, as R20,000 won’t necessarily pay in full for a catastrophic event like an accident.
The hospital cash-back plan is now something you would buy as an add-on. It could help someone who has medical aid if they were in hospital for quite a while and needed some extra income for additional expenses. It’s changing its nature and a different group of people will buy it if it is cheap enough.
Future planning
But where does this leave the young and healthy? Those with a hospital cash-back plan have a few months to get themselves sorted. Their cover for 2017 will remain as is But by 1 January 2018, they need to reassess their risk and investigate the lower tier of medical aid plans that cover the primary expenses of hospitalisation and chronic medication.
Regardless of the plan you choose, it’s really important that you understand what the limitations are and that you’re happy with them. Are you perhaps restricted in your choice of GP, for example? Or can you only go to certain hospitals and pharmacies? Scrutinise the restrictions as well as the benefits and ensure you know how you would go through the system should something go wrong. Read the fine print and make very sure it suits your lifestyle and needs. As for gap cover (for medical expense shortfalls), this will be limited to a maximum of R150,000 per insured life per year. Again, existing policies will remain unchanged until 1 January 2018, when the new limits will apply.
