France dragged Boks into the gutter and unwittingly brought out the dog that made SA double world champs.
Pure and utter resilience worthy of Siya's milestone and a reminder of the peerless power of SA forwards who eroded France's will to resist.
@thepaulwilliams I think regardless of coach and plan they should be able resort to basics and do it well. Most of these players have been in boks squad together. It surprising older boks arenโt putting their hands up as there positions are been questioned by younger guys in last few tests.
@mark_keohane@Springboks@AllBlacks Every game has option to improve and find the balance. We need to be a bit tighter and smack them upfront. Canโt wait!
@Oom_Rugby ๐ฏ - yes Leinster are class outfit and seriously good squad depth but is what it is. Any team is beatable as proven last year in semis and then Northampton. Want international squad, like the Sharks but coaching, culture and developemnt is key. Iโm sure the squad are chuffed now.
Our coaching team were invited to Dublin this morning to watch the @wallabies train ahead of their match vs Ireland on Saturday.
This was possible through Instonian Gary Mitchell who currently works as the Australian Team Doctor!
Thanks Gary and Australian Rugby for the invite!
@thepaulwilliams I know South Africa is different but it's what they have done. Let the big names go abroad and get the bills paid. With this there is complexity for fielding competitive teams that win and bring the home crowds. ๐

@thepaulwilliams They were outstanding, showed really grunt and guts especially in the last 20 mins. The play making from Russel and then Kinghorn in the outside channels. ๐ It is going to be interesting to see how their depth is challenged in the pool stages.
