Kicking this time letting the Bokke down… 10 points left on the table

Three loses out of four matches coming up for the bokke.
The problem with so-called ‘winning rugby’ is that your overall game and generic skill levels does not develop.
While SA media has been bragging and talking the Springboks up the AB teams have been quietly working intensly on their breakdown skills. They have developed state of the art equipment to help with that process and it showed against Argentina. They started using the new equipment in the week just before the first Bledisloe cup match against Aussie.
You could see how they improved in that aspect game by game in the three Bledisloe cup matches.
This weekend against Argie they finally got it right and held on to the ball for 70% of the match.
They are going to play the bokkies of the park, is my prediction.
