In contrast, South Africa’s recent effort at Murrayfield has added weight to a plethora of viewpoints that are clogging our comments section, and it now seems one would be hard-pressed to find a Bok fan expecting anything like the 42-6 result they recorded on their last trip to Twickers in 2008. If anything, that score-line could be reversed on Saturday…well maybe not to that extreme but you see where I am going. Questions need answering.
Here are biggest: Has this side even attempted to adapt to modern rugby? Do they have the right coaches? What’s going on with these substitutions?!
All valid points from fans that were treated to a frustrating affair in Edinburgh, where the Boks chose to take off a kicking ten for a running one in Patrick Lambie when conditions were deteriorating. A strange call but one that’s beginning to become the norm from the Springbok coaches. Some refereeing decisions did raise an eyebrow – Juan Smith at the breakdown for one – but in truth, South Africa just didn’t deserve to beat the Scottish.
