Fassi for Bok fullback in 2022

Published

on

Aphelele Fassi is deserving of the opportunity to claim the Springbok number 15 jersey, and it is one of my sporting wishes in 2022 that the coaches honour his talent and form with consistent selection, writes Mark Keohane.

As someone who just loves playing sport, watching sport and writing about sport as a career, here’s my five-strong wish list for 2022. There is no order of preference as if any one of these five things happen, it will make for one heck of a sporting year.

And if all five happen … Well, then I will forever be indebted to the sporting gods.

If you have followed my writing for the last year or 30 years, you will know that cricket is my first love, rugby is the main sport I write about, soccer is another I follow intensely, but there isn’t a sport I don’t enjoy and over the years I have come to understand North American sports more and appreciate the magnificent athletes that determine the popularity of each of these codes.

I am privileged to write about sport and to tell the story of those sporting people we idolize, condemn, love and loathe but ultimately respect.

I was first published as a 15 year-old in my local community newspaper writing about sport, and it has been one incredible journey over the last 38 years in getting to travel to 40-plus countries and report from some of the most iconic sporting stadia and arenas.

When it comes to soccer, there is Lionel Messi and then there are the rest, so it is only appropriate that I start my wish list with the magical Messi.

  1. Aphelele Fassi to start at fullback for the Springboks

This surely has to be the season where the Springbok coach Jacques Nienaber and the National Director of Rugby Rassie Erasmus give Fassi the opportunity to translate his domestic potency onto the international stage. Fassi in 2021 played two Test matches for the Springboks. He started on the wing in both and scored two sensational tries. He has so much quality and it was one of the biggest surprises and – for me – disappointments – that Fassi did not play in the Rugby Championship against Australia or New Zealand and did not get a place in the Test 23 in any of the three end of year Test matches. Fassi has something very special about him and 2022 is the year that the Bok coaching leadership must unleash his talent on the world.

   2. Lionel Messi doing the club and country double

It would be the ultimate double for me as a Messi disciple for the magician to win the Champions League with Paris St-Germain and then go to Qatar and win the World Cup with Argentina. It is more probable that Messi could achieve champion status with PSG than with his country, given Argentina’s international record at World Cups since Messi turned professional. Argentina haven’t won a World Cup with Messi, but the fact that they have come so close is because of Messi, who earlier this year was named the planet’s best footballer for a record seventh time. Messi has had an indifferent start to his PSG career, which I believe will be short-lived, both the indifference and his time at PSG. He has been fantastic in the Champions League and a spectator in what foreigners call the farmers league, which is the French top league. He was brilliant for Argentina in ensuring they won the Copa America for the first time in 28 years.

  1. Tyson Fury to knock out Anthony Joshua

I love the Gypsy King and he has been brilliant for heavyweight boxing. His trilogy against Deontay Wilder was WILD, WICKED and BRUTAL. The third fight had it all and the manner in which Fury destroyed Wilder was emphatic. He is the best heavyweight champion of his time and among the best to ever wear the most prized belts in boxing. Anthony Joshua has been more pretender than contender, but the romantic in me wants the fight to happen where Fury shows up every one of Joshua’s inadequacies as a boxer. My wish is for the fight to happen before the end of 2022 and for Fury to knock him out, as he did with Wilder.

  1. Temba Bavuma to score more Test hundreds

Few cricketers in this country get it as tough as Temba Bavuma and his haters always default to the fact that he still has scored just the one Test century, which is one more than they all have. Bavuma, in the first two Tests against India, was South Africa’s best batsman and he showed such composure and presence at Centurion and at the Wanderers. I have followed Bavuma’s career since he was a schoolboy, having worked alongside his father Vuyo Bavuma in our early days at the Cape Argus in Cape Town. If my wish on (Tyson) Fury can only come to fruition at the end of the year, then Temba getting a hundred could happen in Cape Town as early as next year. He scored a beauty of a century against England at Newlands and at what is very much his spiritual cricketing home, it would be joyous for him to add another hundred to his Test resume.

  1. Rafa Nadal to be the first men’s player to get to 21 Grand Slam single titles

If you love tennis, as I do, then you have to be awed by Roger Feder, Rafa Nadal and Novak Djokovic and what each of these on-court geniuses have achieved in winning 20 Grand Slam men’s single’s titles each. For a decade it was Roger v Rafa and then it became Roger v Novak and Novak v Rafa. All three are brilliant, but with the Fed Express now 40 years-old and injured and Djokovic not guaranteed playing in the Australian Open because of his refusal to get vaccinated, I’d so want to see the street fighter and clay-court master Rafa Nadal conquer all-comers in Melbourne. Nadal’s knees threatened to give way a decade ago, but he keeps on going, with such passion, so precision and such humility. This is another of my sporting wishes that could come to fruition within the first week of February.

Stormers make it 10 wins from 12 vs Bulls in URC derby

Published

By

Stormers Bulls URC Loftus 2026 Gallo Images

The Stormers 32-19 win against the Bulls at Loftus on Saturday, 14 March extended their remarkable United Rugby Championship derby record to 10 wins from 12 matches. It was also their fourth win in five URC visits to Pretoria since the competition started in 2021.

Stormers and Springboks utility back Damian Willemse was Saturday’s official Player of the Match. The Paul Roos Gimnasium product is a fan favourite and an exceptional rugby player. He is the youngest double winner in the history of Rugby World Cup, having been just 25 when he won his second successive Rugby World Cup gold medal.

Willemse, on Saturday afternoon, scored a try and created the Stormers fourth try with a 50 metre kick through. Among his stats were seven tackles and seven carries, but those are tangibles. What isn’t is his off-the-ball work, his on-field presence and what he offers as a support and guide to flyhalf Sacha Feinberg-Mnogomezulu.

Willemse, just 27 years-old, has played in excess of 8000 minutes of rugby since making his debut for the Stormers in Super Rugby in 2016. He was 18 years-old. He is a Stormers centurion and has gone past 50 Tests for the Springboks.

Europe reacts to France’s dramatic Six Nations title

France players lift the Six Nations trophy after beating England in Paris Photo: Shaun Botterill Getty Images

France claimed the 2026 Six Nations title in extraordinary fashion, beating England 48-46 in Paris after Thomas Ramos landed a penalty with the final kick of the match.

The Stade de France thriller produced 94 points and 13 tries, making it one of the highest-scoring Tests in the history of the rivalry.

For France it was their 10th Six Nations title in the professional era, while England’s defeat denied Ireland the championship after a weekend that had swung wildly between contenders.

Across Europe the reaction was dramatic – French media celebrated the spectacle, English outlets lamented the heartbreak and Irish newspapers reflected on a title that slipped away in the final seconds.

France media reaction: ‘A victory of nerve and spectacle’

L’Équipe

Headline: “Ramos au bout du suspense: la France championne!”
(Ramos at the death: France champions!)

France’s leading sports daily focused on the composure of Ramos and the brilliance of winger Louis Bielle-Biarrey, who scored four tries in a match that will be remembered as one of the greatest “Crunch” encounters.

The paper called the final moments “pure theatre in front of a roaring Stade de France.”


Midi Olympique

Headline: “Un Crunch de folie: les Bleus sacrés au bout du pied de Ramos.”

The rugby weekly described the match as one of the wildest finales in Six Nations history, praising France’s attacking intent but warning that conceding 46 points to England exposed defensive vulnerabilities.


Rugbyrama

Headline: “Un final historique: Ramos offre le Tournoi aux Bleus.”

Rugbyrama highlighted the emergence of Bielle-Biarrey as the star of the tournament, noting his try-scoring feats while praising the resilience of Fabien Galthié’s side.


Le Figaro

Headline: “Les Bleus arrachent le Tournoi dans un Crunch irrespirable.”

Le Figaro framed the victory as a triumph of nerve, describing the contest as an instant classic of French attacking rugby.


England media reaction: ‘Heartbreak in a Paris epic’

The Guardian

Headline: “France win Six Nations with last kick as England fall just short.”

The Guardian described the match as an epic finale, praising England’s attacking ambition but noting discipline and key moments ultimately cost Steve Borthwick’s side.


The Times

Headline: “England heartbreak as Ramos penalty steals Six Nations title.”

The Times focused on England’s inability to close out the match after taking the lead late in the contest, questioning game management in the final minutes.


BBC Sport

Headline: “Last-gasp Ramos penalty denies England in Paris thriller.”

BBC analysis praised England’s seven tries but said the defeat would haunt the players after producing their most attacking display of the championship.


The Telegraph

Headline: “Brave England fall short in 94-point Paris epic.”

The Telegraph labelled the match one of the most extraordinary attacking Tests between the nations, highlighting the spectacle despite the defeat.


Ireland media reaction: ‘Title dreams shattered at the death’

Ireland began the final day of the championship still in the hunt for the title and, for several minutes late in the Paris match, looked set to benefit from an English victory.

Ramos’ penalty changed everything.


Irish Times

Headline: “Ireland denied as France snatch Six Nations in Paris drama.”

The Irish Times described the closing minutes as “a cruel twist” for Ireland, who had earlier completed their own victory but were forced to watch events unfold in Paris.


Irish Independent

Headline: “France break Irish hearts with last-kick title win.”

The paper wrote that Ireland’s title hopes were alive until the final whistle, only to be extinguished by Ramos’ decisive kick.


The42.ie

Headline: “Ireland’s title hopes dashed by Ramos’ dramatic penalty.”

Ireland’s leading rugby platform described the finish as “a brutal reminder of the margins that define championship rugby.”


One of the greatest Six Nations finales

Across Europe there was a rare consensus.

The match will be remembered as one of the greatest Six Nations finales ever played a contest that combined relentless attacking rugby, scoreboard chaos and a title decided with the final kick.

Bulls v Stormers. South African rugby's biggest derby.

The Bulls v Stormers is South African rugby’s biggest derby. The clash is north v south and historically it has never gotten bigger in any South African domestic or international provincial or club competition, as will be the case in Saturday’s United Rugby Championship match at Loftus, Pretoria.

The most recent match-up played out in front of 52 000 fans at Cape Town’s DHL Stadium and the Stormers needed a 78th minute try to win the URC league fixture 13-8.

Bulls v Stormers: The Complete Record of South Africa’s North–South Rugby Rivalry

Few rivalries in world rugby stretch across three centuries of competition and identity.

The battle between the Bulls and Stormers is the modern face of a rivalry that began long before professionalism when Northern Transvaal and Western Province first met in 1891.

From Currie Cup wars at Newlands and Loftus Versfeld to modern URC derby clashes, the North–South rivalry remains one of the defining fixtures in South African rugby.

Today the Stormers brand represents Western Province professionally, while the Bulls remain the professional flagship of the old Northern Transvaal union.

This is the complete statistical breakdown of Bulls v Stormers and the historic Western Province rivalry that created it.

Bulls v Stormers Head-to-Head Record

The Stormers and Bulls first met in Super Rugby in 1998, marking the professional chapter of the rivalry.

Bulls vs Stormers Record (1998–2025)

Matches Bulls Wins Stormers Wins Draws
44 27 17 0

The Bulls dominated much of the early professional era, particularly during the Heyneke Meyer and Frans Ludeke years, when Pretoria became the powerhouse of Super Rugby.

The Stormers have been more competitive in the URC era, winning seven successive matches with John Dobson as coach.

Bulls v Western Province: The Rivalry Before Professional Rugby

Before the creation of the Stormers franchise, the rivalry existed as Western Province v Northern Transvaal in the Currie Cup.

These matches built the mythology of North vs South rugby.

What It Means To Be A Franchise Centurion

Reaching 100 appearances for a South African franchise is a rare milestone.

Several factors limit player totals:

  • Springbok duty removes players for long periods

  • Overseas contracts reduce long-term continuity

  • Squad rotation in Super Rugby and the URC

This makes the Stormers and Bulls centurions clubs among the most exclusive groups in South African professional rugby.

The Rivalry Enters a New Era

With Stormers now replacing Western Province in the Currie Cup from 2026, the professional identity of the rivalry is clearer than ever.

What began as Western Province v Northern Transvaal has evolved into the modern Bulls v Stormers derby but the essence remains unchanged.

Cape Town versus Pretoria.

Newlands tradition versus Loftus power is now Cape Town buzz at the youthful DHL Stadium versus the endearing beauty of the old lady Loftus.

North versus South.

And in South African rugby, no internal showdown carries the same history or significance as Bulls v Stormers.

FAQ

What is the Bulls v Stormers record?
The Bulls lead the Stormers 27 wins to 17 since 1998.

The Springboks and All Blacks have played 110 Tests and produced the fiercest contest in rugby. Here is the full Springboks vs All Blacks record, rivalry history and why it remains rugby’s greatest rivalry.

LATEST NEWS ON RUGBY’S GREATEST RIVALRY

This is the one.

It is rugby’s most loaded rivalry, the one with the deepest history, the greatest tension, and the strongest claim to excellence. Between them, South Africa and New Zealand have set the standard for what Test rugby should look like: hard, clever, physical, unrelenting. They don’t just play for points. They play for hierarchy.

As of the end of the 2025 Rugby Championship meetings, the teams had met 110 times in Test rugby. The All Blacks lead the all-time series with 63 wins, the Springboks have 43, and there have been 4 draws.

That number matters, but it only tells part of the story.

Every era has had its own version of South Africa versus New Zealand. The early tours gave it its edge, but the apartheid years also gave it political charge. Professionalism gave it speed and scale, and the rivalry, in the Rassie Erasmus era, is at its most intense.

ALL BLACKS COACH DAVE RENNIE IS A RED FLAG FOR RASSIE’S BOKS

What is the Springboks vs All Blacks record?

The raw record is straightforward enough.

The Springboks and All Blacks have played 110 Tests. New Zealand have won 63, South Africa 43, with 4 draws. That makes New Zealand the only major nation with a positive all-time record against South Africa, which is why every Springbok win over the All Blacks carries outsized value.

The recent trend, however, tells a sharper story.

South Africa beat New Zealand twice in 2024 31-27 at Ellis Park and 18-12 in Cape Town to reclaim the Freedom Cup. In 2025, the All Blacks won 24-17 at Eden Park, but the Springboks answered a week later with a seismic 43-10 win in Wellington, a result SA Rugby described as the biggest defeat ever inflicted on the All Blacks.

So while New Zealand still lead the century-long rivalry overall, the modern contest is tighter, nastier and far less predictable than the old numbers suggest.

The biggest Springbok win over the All Blacks

South Africa’s biggest win, 35-7 at Twickenham a month before the 2023 World Cup, was the Boks benchmark 100-plus years in the making, but within two years that record was broken.

The new high-water mark came in Wellington on 13 September 2025, when the Springboks demolished the All Blacks 43-10. SA Rugby explicitly called it the All Blacks’ biggest defeat ever, and noted that it surpassed the 35-7 margin from London in 2023.

That matters historically and psychologically.

South Africa have always believed they can beat New Zealand. But there is a difference between belief and force. The 43-10 result was force. It was a reminder that when the Springboks got their collision game, bench impact and tactical pressure exactly right, they could break even the All Blacks in New Zealand.

The biggest All Blacks win over the Springboks

New Zealand’s biggest win in the rivalry remains the brutal 57-0 victory in 2017, still South Africa’s heaviest defeat in Test history. SA Rugby itself referred to it in retrospect as a record defeat by New Zealand.

That result remains one of the rivalry’s most important reference points because it sits at the opposite end of the emotional scale from the Springboks’ recent resurgence. It was humiliation then. The modern Bok revival has been built, in part, on making sure that kind of capitulation never happens again.

Why this is rugby’s greatest rivalry

The phrase is not marketing fluff.

South Africa and New Zealand have been the sport’s two most imposing rugby nations across generations. They have the tradition, the depth, the public pressure, the tactical intelligence and the expectation. More than that, each has usually been measured most accurately by how it performs against the other.

SA Rugby itself now brands the fixture as Rugby’s Greatest Rivalry, and the 2026 tour has been designed around that idea, with four Tests scheduled between the Springboks and All Blacks, including a Test in Baltimore, USA. That commercial packaging works because it is built on a truth rugby people already understand: no fixture carries more historical weight.

There are bigger sporting events globally, but in rugby, nothing feels more final than Springboks versus All Blacks.

The latest chapter in the rivalry

The latest sequence of matches has added another layer to the story.

In 2024, South Africa beat New Zealand twice in one Rugby Championship campaign, first at Ellis Park and then in Cape Town. The second win secured the Freedom Cup and kept the Springboks unbeaten in that championship stretch.

In 2025, the All Blacks protected Eden Park with a 24-17 win in Auckland, before South Africa hit back with the 43-10statement in Wellington. The official Springbok record published before the Auckland match was 108 played, 42 won, 62 lost, 4 drawn; after Auckland it became 109 played, 42 won, 63 lost, 4 drawn; and after Wellington the all-time tally moved to 110 played, 43 won, 63 lost, 4 drawn.

Springboks vs All Blacks: the verdict

The All Blacks still lead the rivalry on total wins.

But the modern Springboks have changed the feel of the contest. They have beaten New Zealand in World Cup finals, beaten them back-to-back in South Africa, and in 2025 handed them the heaviest defeat in their history in their own country.

That is why the Springboks versus All Blacks fixture remains unmatched. It is not just the best rivalry because of the past. It is the best rivalry because the next chapter still matters.

And in this rivalry, more than any other in rugby, history is never finished.

Andre Esterhuizen is the STECO hybrid power tools hero

Published

on

By

Andre Esterhuizen, Springboks, Sharks, STECO

Andre Esterhuizen and his hybrid rugby qualities have reaped reward off the field. He is the STECO Hybrid Power Tools Hero and Hybrid Craftsman for South Africa’s hottest new power tool brand, with 40 years of RYOBI credibility.

RUGBY’S FIRST HYBRID TEST PLAYER

Esterhuizen, recently on the cover of SA Rugby Magazine, has been outstanding for the Springboks and the Sharks, whom he captained in his 100th match and continues to lead in the United Rugby Championship.

John Stevens, RYOBI Africa and STECO CEO, in confirming the alignment with Andre ‘the Giant’ and the Hybrid Craftsman campaign, said it was a giant step into the rugby landscape for them as a business, but one that made for a perfect fit, given Esterhuizen’s role as Test rugby’s first proper hybrid player and the power of STECO’s hybrid tools.

‘The Shark’s captain and Springbok utility back has been moulded by coach Rassie Erasmus into the world’s first hybrid player; essentially he is versatile enough to perform at the highest level, globally, as both a back and a forward. This is a perfect metaphor for our STECO offering.’

‘Most power tools are walled gardens, but we have designed STECO batteries to work on RYOBI products and vice versa. Our industry-leading 20v batteries last longer, perform better, and offer the performance and power needed for residential and commercial building projects.’

Esterhuizen says, ‘It’s an absolutely synergistic partnership that just makes sense. The STECO team is proudly South African with several decades worth of credibiity. The Stevens and co team have built one of the most envious power tools offerings on the continent but their after sales, hands on approach, puts the customer at the heart of everything that they do. I’m honoured to represent my country, when given the opportunity. I am relishing the hybrid role that was created for me, and I’m excited to get to work with STECO as the hybrid craftsman, with the hybrid tools that I have at my disposal.’

STECO has been a partner of Keo.co.za and the Keo & Zels show for the past 18 months, with Keo & Zels dedicating a section of the show to the STECO Power Play of the weekend.

France: Rugby’s Most Seductive Illusion

Published

on

By

France are rugby’s great illusion: Celebrated as royalty at home, but on the road they have too often travelled as peasants, as witnessed with the Murrayfield massacre in Scotland scoring 50 points.

The Six Nations match ended 50-40 to Scotland, but don’t be fooled. The story is Scotland scoring 40 unanswered points in the 20 minutes before half time and the 20 after the break.

Charitable tries to France in the final five minutes was never going to change the result, and it should not change the reflection of the match.

Rugby has always been seduced by France. The jerseys, the flair, the romance, the idea that somewhere inside the chaos lies genius. But the professional record, since 1996, tells a colder story.

Four wins from 40 Tests in New Zealand, Australia and South Africa.
No World Cup gold in 8 tournaments over 30 years
No southern hemisphere series victories.
Nine European titles in three decades.

I am among those always seduced by the folklore of the French, by the celebrated one-off World Cup wins against the All Blacks at Twickenham in the 1999 RWC semi-final and the 20-18 win against the All Blacks at the 2007 RWC quarter-final in Cardiff.

What followed was France losing the next match, one in a final and one in a semi-final.

France, when they hosted the 2007 World Cup, lost the opening match to Argentina and they lost the play-off for third and fourth place to Argentina.

France, in hosting the 2023 World Cup, lost to the defending champion Springboks in the quarter-final.

No Test rugby nation has ever enjoyed such continued hype and delivered such consistent failures.

Tests in the southern hemisphere against the Big Three:

  • Played: 40

  • Won: 4

  • Lost: 35

  • Drawn: 1
  • Win rate: 10%

The Breakdown:

  • New Zealand in New Zealand: 1 win from 18 Tests

  • Australia in Australia: 1 wins from 14 Tests

  • South Africa in South Africa: 2 wins from 8 Tests

France have not won a Test series in New Zealand, Australia or South Africa since the game turned professional in 1996.

At home against the same three nations:

  • Played: 40 Tests

  • Won: 17

  • Lost: 22

  • Drawn: 1

The All Blacks between 2004 and 2017 won seven times in succession in France.

  • 27 Nov 2004, Stade de France New Zealand 45-6 France

  • 11 Nov 2006, Stade de Gerland New Zealand 47-3 France

  • 18 Nov 2006, Stade de France New Zealand 23-11 France

  • 28 Nov 2009, Stade Vélodrome New Zealand 39-12 France

  • 9 Nov 2013, Stade de France New Zealand 26-19 France

  • 26 Nov 2016, Stade de France New Zealand 24-19 France

  • 11 Nov 2017, Stade de France New Zealand 38-18 France

The Springboks, between 2013 and 2025, have won five from six

  • 23 Nov 2013, Stade de France South Africa 19-10 France

  • 18 Nov 2017, Stade de France South Africa 18-17 France

  • 10 Nov 2018, Stade de France South Africa 29-26 France

  • 12 Nov 2022, Stade Vélodrome France 30-26 South Africa

  • 15 Oct 2023, Stade de France South Africa 29-28 France

  • 8 Nov 2025, Stade de France South Africa 32-17 France

Even in Paris, Marseille, Lyon and Toulouse, France lose more than they win against the southern hemisphere trio of South Africa, New Zealand and Australia.

Six Nations / Five Nations (1996–2025):

  • Tournaments: 30

  • Titles: 9

  • Runner-up: 7

  • Third: 4

  • Fourth: 7

  • Fifth: 2

France, under Fabien Galthié, between 2020 and 2025, have finished second, second, first, second, second and first in the Six Nations. They should add a 10th Six Nations title (in 31 attempts) this weekend when they play England in Paris.

But even that renaissance came with its defining moment on home soil in the 2023 World Cup quarter-final in Paris, when France lost to the Springboks in the quarter-final in Paris.

The margin was just that one point, but one point was as powerful at 20 on the night.

The Boks, defending the World Cup title, won the tournament in beating England in the semi-final and New Zealand in the final, each play-off win being with a point.

France felt they had been a dirty but one year later, hyped again, they fell once more to the Springboks, who won 32-17 in Paris, despite playing 14-15 for 30 of the 80 minutes.

The Boks, in their last 11 matches against France, six in France and five in South Africa, have won five in France and five in South Africa. They have lost one, 30-26 in Marseilles in 2022.

Saturday’s visit to Murrayfield was significant in the assessment of a French team that had been dominant against Ireland in Paris, Wales in Cardiff and Italy in Lille.

Scotland, at Murrayfield, would be as good a measure as any to the mental resolve of a French squad that must travel further than the flight to Edinburgh when challenging for the 2027 World Cup in Australia.

Scotland, at Murrayfield, was a reinforcement of the fragility of the French player psyche when not playing at home.

The defeat, given the hype around France, shocked many, but the manner in which they fell apart was consistent with the past 30 years of professionalism.

FRENCH MEDIA REACTION TO MURRAYFIELD MAYHEM

The World Cup myth

France’s World Cup record since professionalism:

World Cup Result
1999 Finalists
2003 Semi-final
2007 Semi-final
2011 Finalists
2015 Quarter-final
2019 Quarter-final

2027 TBD

World Cups since 1996: 8
Titles: 0

France, on those big rugby days when expectation leads them into battle, are not the aristocrats rugby imagines them to be.

They are the sport’s most celebrated illusion, so magnificent in the telling, but far less imposing in the reckoning.

Dave Rennie is a red flag for Rassie and his world champion Boks

Dave Rennie, the new All Blacks coach, is a red flag for Rassie & his world champions Boks. Here is why as the Boks prepare for Rugby’s Greatest Rivalry four-Test series against the All Blacks, three in South Africa and the final Test in Baltimore, USA.

Rennie’s record against the Springboks, when coach of the Wallabies between 2020 and 2022, is a powerful statement.

Rennie’s Wallabies beat the Springboks three times in four Tests

Against the Springboks coached by Rassie Erasmus and Jacques Nienaber, Rennie’s Australia team went:

  • 3 wins

  • 1 loss

Victories came in:

  • Gold Coast (2021)

  • Brisbane (2021)

  • Adelaide (2022)

The Boks won 24-8 in Sydney a week after the Adelaide defeat. It marked Canan Moodie’s Test debut as a 19 year-old.

Even more powerful is Rennie’s record, as Chiefs coach between 2012 and 2017, against South African Super Rugby Teams.

Rennie’s tenure at the Chiefs (2012-2017):

How the French & Scottish rugby media told the story of Murrayfield’s madness

Published

on

By

The French rugby media called it Murrayfield’s madness. The Scottish rugby media called it Murrayfield’s magical night. Scotland’s 50-40 Six Nations win crushed France’s Grand Slam and turned the tournament’s last round into a three-horse race for the title.

France, Scotland or Ireland can win the title.

France hosts England and Ireland is at home to Scotland.

Ireland have beaten Scotland 11 successive times, but this season’s Six Nations has been about rewriting history.

How French Media Reported the Scotland Win

Shock and disbelief France’s Grand Slam hopes destroyed.

Typical framing in L’Équipe-style coverage:

  • “La France renversée à Murrayfield”

  • “La gifle écossaise”

  • “Un match fou”

Meaning:

  • France overturned in Edinburgh

  • A Scottish slap

  • A crazy match

Narrative themes

  1. Defensive collapse – France conceding 50 points was central to the coverage.

  2. Discipline problems – yellow cards and loss of control.

  3. Scottish attacking brilliance – especially Finn Russell’s orchestration.

French outlets emphasised the humiliation of conceding a half-century rather than Scotland’s title credentials.


🇫🇷 Midi Olympique

Editorial tone

Rugby analysis rather than emotional headlines.

Midi-Olympique focused on:

  • France’s defensive structure breaking down

  • Scotland’s tempo and width

  • The tactical battle between Gregor Townsend and Fabien Galthié

Typical angle:

France lost the collision battle and could not control Scotland’s attacking rhythm.

They also highlighted the fact that Scotland scored seven tries, one of the biggest attacking displays against France in modern Six Nations rugby.


🇫🇷 Rugbyrama

Editorial tone

“Match de folie” match of madness

Rugbyrama leaned heavily into the spectacle of the game.

Typical themes:

  • 13 tries

  • chaotic momentum swings

  • Scotland blowing the title race open

The site emphasised that Scotland were 40-14 up before France mounted a late comeback, reinforcing the idea that the damage had already been done.

KEO: SIX NATIONS STUNNER


How Scottish Media Reported the Match

🏴 The Rugby Paper

One of Scotland’s greatest modern performances.

Themes highlighted:

  • Scotland scoring seven tries

  • Scotland blowing open the Six Nations title race

  • Finn Russell masterclass

Scottish media leaned heavily on the idea that this was Townsend’s best Scotland performance.


🏴 The Scotsman

Typical narrative:

“A Murrayfield classic.”

Focus points:

  • Scotland’s attacking brilliance

  • Darcy Graham becoming Scotland’s record try scorer

  • belief that Scotland can challenge for the title

The tone was celebratory but also analytical about Scotland’s development under Gregor Townsend.


🏴 Scottish Sun

Tabloid framing:

  • “FRENCH FRIED”

  • “MURRAYFIELD MAYHEM”

The tabloids leaned heavily into the spectacle of 50 points against France, something rarely seen in the Six Nations era.

How the English and Italian rugby media told the story of Rome

Published

on

By

The English rugby media treated Rome – and England’s first ever defeat to Italy – as a national embarrassment. The Italian rugby media media treated Rome as a national coming-of-age. In England, the theme was blame. In Italy, it was belief.

Here’s your summary of Italy’s 23-18 win against England in the Six Nations. It was the first time Italy had beaten England in their 33rd match-up over 35 years.

The English media line

1) The broad English newspaper angle: crisis, collapse, pressure on Borthwick
The dominant English framing was not “Italy were lucky”; it was England hit a new low. The Guardian called it a historic first victory for Italy and linked it directly to England’s worsening form and a potential crisis under Steve Borthwick. The Telegraph’s line was even harsher: England’s Six Nations is “in ruins” and the defeat was “shattering.” The Independent pushed the same direction, focusing on the “horror half-hour,” the squandered lead, and the pressure now building on Borthwick’s future.

2) The rugby specialist English angle: self-destruction and indiscipline
The rugby-first English platforms were even more forensic. RugbyPass framed it as a historic defeat that piles pressure on Borthwick, while Planet Rugby went bigger: a history-making Italy result that leaves Borthwick’s job “on the line.” Reuters, reporting the post-match reaction, zeroed in on Borthwick’s own explanation: ill-discipline. Across those outlets, the common English diagnosis was clear: England were in control, then lost composure, bled penalties/cards, and handed Italy the game.

3) The key English match narrative
Across Sky Sports, Reuters, the Independent and the Guardian, the repeated turning points were the same: England built a lead, then yellow cards to Sam Underhill and Maro Itoje swung the match, Italy attacked the space and momentum, and Leonardo Marin’s late try finished it. So the English press consensus is: this was less an accident than an England implosion under pressure.

4) The official England Rugby tone: controlled, stripped of drama
England Rugby’s own match report was the least emotional of the English sources. It acknowledged the “first-ever” Italy win and the late try, but the wording was institutional rather than alarmist. That contrast matters: where newspapers saw embarrassment and political heat, the RFU house style presented it as a narrow defeat decided late.

The Italian media line

1) The dominant Italian framing: history, taboo broken, national step forward
Italian coverage was almost unanimous in tone: historic breakthrough. Gazzetta dello Sport said Italy “made history” and broke the last taboo in the Six Nations. The FIR official site called it an “heroic” Italy that beat England for the first time. Corriere dello Sport led with “storica impresa,” while Corriere della Sera called it the first historic win over the English and the end of an era of chasing.

2) The rugby specialist Italian angle: Italy are now a real team
OnRugby’s tone was especially revealing. Their post-match report and ratings were not just celebratory; they argued this was proof that Italy is now a proper, dangerous side. Their language around the team being “una squadra vera” was important because it moved the story beyond one upset and into a larger idea: Gonzalo Quesada has built a side with belief, cohesion and edge.

3) The Italian narrative emphasis: courage, crowd, growth, Quesada
Italian outlets kept returning to four ideas: the crowd at the Olimpico, the emotional significance of finally beating England, the character of the comeback, and Quesada’s long-build project. FIR explicitly described Italy as courageous in a messy, difficult match that had seemed to be slipping away. Gazzetta and Corriere framed it not as a freak day but as the latest step in an upward curve.

KEO: SIX NATIONS STUNNER

The real split between England and Italy

The English press mostly wrote the match as an England failure.
The Italian press mostly wrote it as an Italy arrival.

That is the essential media divide.

England’s outlets asked:

  • How bad is this for Borthwick?

  • Why is England so ill-disciplined?

  • How do you lose from there?

  • Is this the tournament hitting rock bottom?

Italy’s outlets asked:

  • How big is this moment for Italian rugby?

  • What does it say about Quesada’s team?

  • Has the final Six Nations taboo now been removed?

  • Can this side go on and make more history?

Outlet-by-outlet quick breakdown

England

  • Guardian: historic Italy win, England crisis, discipline and drift.

  • Telegraph: England implosion, campaign in ruins, serious pressure on Borthwick.

  • Independent: tactical collapse, yellow cards, Borthwick future now a live issue.

  • Sky Sports: historic first Italy win, England misery, inquest mode.

  • RugbyPass: humiliation and heat on Borthwick.

  • Planet Rugby: history made, pressure severe, job-on-the-line framing.

  • Reuters: cleanest straight-news read England lost control through indiscipline.

  • England Rugby: sober official language, late loss, no emotional panic.

Italy

  • Gazzetta dello Sport: history, last taboo broken, emotional national milestone.

  • Corriere della Sera: historic first, comeback, national significance.

  • Corriere dello Sport: “storica impresa,” celebratory and big-picture.

  • OnRugby: detailed rugby reading Italy are now a genuine side, not a novelty winner.

  • FIR / Federugby: heroic, historic, proof of growth under Quesada.

Six Nations stunner as Scotland fry France & Italy shock England

Published

on

By

The romance of the Six Nations reached a peak in Rome when Italy beat England for the first time & in Edinburgh Scotland fried France’s Grand Slam.

What joy for the Italians, the biggest movers in world rugby in the past three seasons.

They won 23-18, having led 10-5 in the 39th minute, then trailed 18-10, only to find something out of the ordinary in 23 year-old midfielder Tommaso Menoncello who scored a spectacular try and made an equally imposing break as the try-assist for the winner in the 73rd minute.

England had beaten Italy 32 times in succession, gone past 50 on nine occasions and blanked the Italians twice in the past 35 years, but in Rome history was there to be written, given England’s Six Nations slump, and Italy duly rewrote history.

It was glorious for the Italians and equally mesmerising for the rugby neutral. This was a win that has been building for a bit. Italy, this season, won against Scotland in Rome, were in touching distance of toppling Ireland in Dublin and trailed France 19-11 with 10 minutes to go in Lille.

France, in scoring three late tries, won more comfortably than the first 70 minutes played out, and Italy took those painful lessons and applied them in Rome. They played until the 81st minute, refusing to cave to expectation or implode in what is among their biggest wins in history.

Italy have won against the Springboks once and Australia a couple of times. They have beaten France, Ireland, Scotland and Wales, but never England and the All Blacks. Now that list is down to just the All Blacks.

England, in the last month, have gone from a team unbeaten in 12 matches, to one shell-shocked with three successive defeats, hammerings to Scotland (away) and Ireland (home).

Now this result in Rome and France in Paris still to come next weekend.

Their next Test is on the 4th July against the world champion Springboks in Pretoria.

A month ago the English were pleading to play the Boks the next weekend. The ‘Bring on the Boks’ chorus is now on mute.

Scotland, beaten in the opening round in Rome, responded with a comprehensive home win against England before a late seven pointer in the 75th minute downed Wales in Cardiff.

On Saturday, at Murrayfield, Scotland were irresistible in scoring 40 unanswered points in as many minutes in the last 20 of the first half and the first 20 of the second half to turn a 14-7 deficit into a 47-14 lead. France scored two tries in the back end to bring it back to 47-26 with less than 10 minutes to go. Finn Russell kicked a penalty to bring up the 50 and in a bizarre finish to the Test, France scored two more tries in the last three minutes to force a scoreline of 50-40, which was everything but how the match had played out for 65 minutes.

Scotland travel to Dublin in next weekend’s final round with the hopes of winning the title, should France stumble at home to England.

Ireland can also win the title if they beat Scotland and France lose to England.

SA teams flex their muscle as URC heats up

Published

on

By

South Africa’s URC franchises continue to make their presence felt across the competition’s statistical landscape, with Round 12 offering another reminder of the attacking firepower and individual quality spread across the Vodacom Bulls, DHL Stormers, Hollywoodbets Sharks and Fidelity SecureDrive Lions.

From the Bulls’ scoring spree to the Stormers’ territorial dominance and several standout individual performances, the numbers from the latest round – and the season as a whole – underline just how influential the South African sides remain.

Bulls lead the attacking charge

If there was one South African side that truly lit up Round 12, it was the Vodacom Bulls.

Jake White’s men finished the round top of the tries scored chart with seven, while also leading the competition for points scored with 41. 

Those numbers reflect a Bulls side that has increasingly leaned into its attacking weapons. With players such as Canan Moodie, Sebastian de Klerk and Embrose Papier capable of breaking games open, the Pretoria outfit continues to show why it remains one of the competition’s most dangerous attacking teams.

Over the course of the season, that attacking consistency has also paid dividends. The Bulls sit third overall for tries scored with 45, trailing only Glasgow Warriors and Leinster. 

Individually, Bulls players also featured strongly in the Round 12 metrics. Centre Harold Vorster topped the round’s line-break statistics with four, while scrumhalf Embrose Papier was among the leaders for metres gained. 

Stormers creating pressure

The DHL Stormers may not have dominated the Round 12 scoreboard, but the numbers show they still spent plenty of time on the front foot.

John Dobson’s side finished first for visits to the opposition 22 with 15, highlighting the territorial pressure they were able to apply. 

That ability to create opportunities remains one of the Stormers’ biggest strengths. Even when finishing proves difficult, the Cape side consistently generates attacking platforms.

Among the individual standouts, Evan Roos once again showed his influence with 15 carries in the round, placing him among the most active ball carriers in the competition. 

Roos’ work rate and dynamism have been a hallmark of the Stormers’ pack all season.

Lions continue to deliver attacking output

The Fidelity SecureDrive Lions have quietly built one of the more productive attacking records in the competition.

In Round 12 they finished joint second for points scored with 24, underlining their ability to convert opportunities when they present themselves. 

Across the season the Johannesburg side has maintained that attacking momentum, ranking among the top teams for points scored with 325. 

Players like Henco van Wyk and Quan Horn continue to provide attacking spark, with Horn also featuring prominently in the season-long kicking metrics.

Sharks battling in the physical exchanges

For the Hollywoodbets Sharks, Round 12 highlighted the defensive demands they faced.

The Durban side recorded 92 tackles during the round, reflecting the physical workload they had to absorb. 

The Sharks’ attacking threats remain clear, however, with players such as Andre Esterhuizen continuing to feature among the competition’s most effective ball carriers. 

As the season progresses, converting pressure into points will be key to ensuring the Durban side climbs further up the standings.

SA influence remains strong

Zooming out across the full season statistics, South Africa’s presence across the URC remains significant.

The Bulls are among the competition’s leading attacking sides, the Lions continue to accumulate points, the Stormers remain dangerous in opposition territory and the Sharks continue to bring their physical edge.

On the individual front, players like Sebastian de Klerk, Evan Roos, Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu and Quan Horn all feature prominently across the competition’s attacking metrics.

With the URC season entering its decisive stretch, the numbers suggest South Africa’s franchises will continue to play a major role in shaping the race for the playoffs.

Markus Muller will play for the Springboks in 2026

Published

on

By

Markus Muller 2 16 August 2025 Grant Pitcher Gallo Images

Markus Muller will play for the Springboks in 2026. Good enough is old enough, and Springboks coach Rassie Erasmus has never had an issue picking a young one or an old one.

Muller and SA under 20 captain Riley Norton are experiencing the Springboks culture in Cape Town this week as part of Erasmus’s first national alignment camp for the season as the Boks coach counts down the 21 matches (20 Tests and the Barbarians season opener) before the start of the 2027 Rugby World Cup in Australia.

The Boks, their four World Cup golds the most in the 10 tournament history, would make history in winning a third successive World Cup. They won the 2019 and 2023 World Cups, a back-to-back feat only achieved once before by Richie McCaw’s All Blacks in 2011 and 2015.

Here’s a piece I did on Muller for the Sunday Times.

Markus Muller, the schoolboy sensation from Paarl Gimnasium, needs backing more than protection from the hype.

And that is exactly the endorsement he got from Springboks coach Rassie Erasmus earlier this week with inclusion in the Springboks alignment camp, in Cape Town, next week.

Muller, 18 years-old, signed with the Stormers in 2026 and has already trained with the senior squad. He played for the SA under 20s against Georgia last weekend.

He is an exceptional talent, and age has never been a consideration for talents of his ilk. They transition straight onto the biggest stages

Canan Moodie made his Springboks Test debut in 2022 as a 19-year-old winger against Australia in Sydney. He was superb. A year later he was a World Cup winner.

Frans Steyn made his Test debut against Ireland in 2006 as a 19 year-old winger and was South Africa’s Player of the Match. A year later he was a World Cup winner.

Muller has the potential and pedigree to write a similar script, given the next World Cup is in Australia in 2027.

Erasmus has never referenced age as a negative in his selections. He picked hooker Schalk Brits (38) for World Cup duty in 2019 and entrusted the then 37 year-old Deon Fourie with a multi-faceted role at the 2023 World Cup. Brits and Fourie are World Cup winners.

Some of the sport’s iconic backs were playing Test rugby in their teens. John Kirwan, Jeff Wilson and Jonah Lomu were all All Blacks wingers as 19 year-olds. James O’Connor played wing for the Wallabies as an 18 year-old and the midfield duo of Tim Horan and Jason Little were Wallabies as 19 year-olds.

Muller, comfortable wearing No 12 and No 13, scored more than 50 tries in his Grade 11 and 12 years playing for Paarl Gim, Western Province and SA Schools.

He also kicked many points and in 2025 he scored 43 points in one match.

Having watched him through SuperSport’s Schools broadcasts and seen several of his matches live, his point of difference is not in size, but in a rugby IQ that complements a physical presence.

He is a back, who in his final schools’ year, relished joining the forwards in a lineout maul, as much as he did running a try-scoring support line as a midfield back.

I can see him developing into a hybrid player as he physically evolves.

His try-scoring headlined most of his school matches, but his assists were even more impressive. He is not a one-trick pony who dominated schools rugby because of superior size.

He is a player with an understanding of the nuances of the sport and a natural appreciation that rugby is a team sport.

Erasmus has recognised his on-field quality and will get to experience the youngster’s energy up close. Culture is the essence of Erasmus’s World Cup-winning Springboks.

If a player doesn’t fit in, no matter his pedigree, he won’t get selected.

Muller will fit in and there is no ‘if’ about him playing for the Springboks; the only question is when he plays for the Springboks.

KEO ON THE BULLS RESURGENCE

 

A recap of the Fidelity Secure Drive Lions winning the South Africa Shield, courtesy of the URC official communications team.

Their trophy triumph was confirmed when their 24-10 victory over the DHL Stormers was followed by the Hollywoodbets Sharks losing 41-12 to the Vodacom Bulls.

The Lions won four of their six domestic derbies to finish three points ahead of the Sharks, with the Bulls and Stormers – who meet in Pretoria later this month – now unable to catch them.

As well as topping the South African table, they are also looking good in the overall Vodacom URC log as they set their sights on the play-offs. They have moved into seventh spot following back-to-back Ellis Park victories over the Sharks and now the Stormers.

Skipper Francke Horn said: “It’s been a fantastic last two weeks. Two really good wins, local derbies that in previous seasons could have gone the other way.”

Head coach Ivan van Rooyen added: “I think we’ve grown a lot over the last month. The experienced leaders are driving hard and pushing what’s needed.

“We spoke during pre-season about needing to be better and more consistent against South African teams, as that’s where we felt we lost points in the past. So I’m incredibly proud.”

Playing their first game since the announcement of their new sponsored branding, the Lions built a solid lead against the Stormers in Johannesburg with tries from flanker Sibabalwe Mahashe, centre Henco van Wyk and wing Erich Cronje.

They then defended heroically, keeping their opponents out even when they were down to 13 men following two yellow cards in quick succession, one of which – to prop Conrad van Vuuren – was upgraded to a 20 minute red card.

The defeat for the Stormers came on a weekend when the league table was turned on its head with the top three going into the Origin round of matches all being beaten.

Leaders Glasgow Warriors suffered a dramatic last minute loss to Connacht Rugby in Galway with Kiwi No 8 Sean Jansen scoring a lineout maul try in the final play to secure a 15-10 triumph.

Second-placed Leinster Rugby saw their seven game winning run in the league come to an end as they were defeated 8-7 by Cardiff Rugby in monsoon-like conditions at the Arms Park.

That result sees Cardiff move up to third, overtaking the Stormers who have now lost their last three Vodacom URC matches having won their first eight.

Munster Rugby have advanced into fourth spot thanks to a hard-fought 21-7 win over Zebre Parma at Thomond Park where it was 7-7 at half-time.

The Stormers are down to fifth, while Ulster Rugby have dropped to sixth after losing 21-10 to the Ospreys in Bridgend.

Below the celebrating Lions, the top eight is completed by the Bulls who ran in seven tries in beating the Sharks at Loftus Versfeld, with two apiece from scrum-half Embrose Papier and centre Harold Vorster.

The weekend’s other games saw Edinburgh Rugby beat the Scarlets 24-19, while Dragons RFC and Benetton Rugby drew 15-15 amid more late drama at Rodney Parade.

Ospreys On The Play-Off Hunt

Ospreys coach Mark Jones believes his team can make the play-offs having moved within a point of the top eight by extending their unbeaten league run to five matches with a 21-10 win over Ulster.

They secured the spoils with late tries from Player of the Match James Ratti and winger Dan Kasende in front of their delighted fans at Bridgend’s Brewery Field.

Reflecting on his team’s hopes of qualifying for the knock-out stages, Jones said: “There are six rounds left. We have got to go on the road a little bit in the next few weeks, but we’ve also got some derbies in there.

“There’s a lot of rugby to be played. It is tight. Anybody at any time can get in that top eight at the moment, right down to about 14th.

“One bonus point win, one loss can shift you up and down the table three or four places.

“So we are going to have to string some games together. But that’s five now we are undefeated in the league, so that’s a bit of momentum.

“I do think we can make the top eight. I really believe in the group.”

Trailing 10-7 at the break, the Ospreys hammered away through the second half, but couldn’t turn pressure into points until flanker Ratti went over from a tap penalty 12 minutes from time, with winger Kasende then pouncing to seal the victory late on.

“We made very hard work of it in patches, particularly the second half,” said Jones.

“I think with about 15 minutes to go, it was 70 per cent territory and not a lot to show for it.

“Our conversion rate in the red zone was well below what it normally is.

“But we found a way. We went away from the lineout and went after a tap strike. It was smart from the boys there just to mix it up.

“We have got it up our sleeve. It’s another way of us trying to convert in that area of the pitch.

“We showed some good leadership on the field there to identify it and adjust well. I was really pleased with the composure and just pleased for the boys overall.”

Adding his assessment, blindside Ratti said: “It was a big physical battle.

“Ulster are having a good season and we knew they were going to bring it physically, so it was up to us to match it and try and go beyond.

“We back ourselves against anyone here at the Brewery Field. It’s always a good occasion down here. You can hear the fans all the time. When you are blowing, you hear the crowd. They get behind you and it gives you that little extra bit in your legs to keep fighting.

“Even after we went behind quite early, we were confident we were still going to be in the game. We stuck to our process, fought back and I thought we deserved it in the end.”

Saturday evening’s other game in Wales saw a dramatic ending at Rodney Parade where the Dragons and Benetton drew 15-15.

It looked as though the Italian visitors were going to claim the spoils with Player of the Match Onisi Ratave having crossed twice to put them in front.

But, in the final play of the game, the Dragons’ centre Fine Inise touched down to level the scores.

That gave Angus O’Brien the chance to secure a fifth successive home win for his team, but the full-back’s touchline conversion just drifted wide.

His coach Filo Tiatia said: “What I said to the group is the silver lining is we’ve got two points out of it.

“I was very proud of the performance. The character, the grit, the scrap and the fight wanting to stay in it was excellent.”

Giving the view from the Benetton camp, their skipper Andy Uren said: “We let that one go. We should have won the game. I think we were the better team. We are very, very disappointed.”

Belcher Blown Away By His Team’s Fighting Spirit

Cardiff captain Liam Belcher has paid tribute to the “unbelievable fight” from his team in the wake of their victory over league champions Leinster.

Belcher’s boys triumphed 8-7 at a rainswept Arms Park as they held firm in the tense closing stages to end their opponents’ 11-match winning run in all competitions and move up to third in the Vodacom URC table.

The way they saw the game out was all the more impressive given they were down to 14 men for the final 15 minutes with winger Jacob Beetham unable to get back on the field following his yellow card as his team ran down the clock in a protracted final play.

“From the boys’ point of view, the fight they showed in that weather was unbelievable,” said Wales hooker Belcher.

“It was sopping out there. It was like a monsoon in the first half, so fair credit to them.

“We did the last 15 minutes with 14 men because we didn’t get Jacob back on quick enough. That’s just a credit to the squad.”

Reflecting on the win, he added: “For the table, it’s quite big. It hopefully puts us in a better position than we were last year.”

Beetham was understandably relieved, with Leinster having crossed straight after his 65th minute sin binning for a deliberate knock-on to cut the deficit to just a point.

“When they scored that try, I was thinking the worst and thinking ‘Oh no’ because it feels like it comes back on you if you are the one that has got the yellow,” he said.

“I wanted to get back on and I was a little bit nervous at the end. I was just so happy when we managed to keep them out and come away with the win. It was really cool.

“A win against Leinster is amazing. They are such a great outfit, so whenever we get a chance to play a team like that you are licking your lips thinking this could be an amazing win if we get it. To be fair, we stuck to our game plan and it worked.”

Head coach Corniel van Zyl picked out one area of his team’s performance for particular praise.

“Our discipline was the best it has been this season and potentially what I can remember in my coaching experience because we only conceded three penalties which was massive,” he said.

“It’s always nice to get on the right side of the result. I thought we adapted well to the conditions. Obviously the kicking came into play and I was pleased with how the plan unfolded.

“We pride ourselves on performing at home. We want to make this place a fortress and be as good as we can at the Arms Park in front of our friends and families. That was the biggest focus.”

Cardiff’s try came from scrum-half Aled Davies who claimed his first touchdown for the club.

“It was great. The weather was tough, but we played some good rugby,” he said.

“We have got big games coming up and we know that, so it’s important for us to really crack on with the end of the season.”

Leinster coach Leo Cullen said: “I thought Cardiff deserved to win. They were better in terms of their kicking strategy and they were incredibly disciplined with everything that they did.”

In Friday night’s other game, Edinburgh played some sparkling rugby as they came from 14-0 down to beat the Scarlets 24-19 at the Hive Stadium, with full-back Harry Paterson claiming the winning try 11 minutes from time.

Their coach Sean Everitt commented: “My nerves were shot after that! It must have been enjoyable to watch from the side, I’m sure.

“I didn’t think it would be perfect, but I didn’t expect to have conceded 15 turnovers by half-time. So that put us under the pump.

“It was then just about looking after the ball and tidying up the breakdown. We put together the first 10 minutes in the second half really well and that set the foundation for us.”

Scarlets director of rugby Nigel Davies said: “We were on top in the main in the first half, but Edinburgh played some great rugby in the second half and we couldn’t contain them. We had opportunities, but we just weren’t clinical enough.”

What’s Coming Next?

There’s a break from league action next week as the focus switches back to the Guinness Six Nations.

But there are three rearranged fixtures on the eve of the Super Saturday finale to the Championship, with Connacht hosting the Scarlets and Edinburgh entertaining Ulster on Friday, March 13. The Bulls are at home to the Stormers on Saturday, March 14.

Then there’s a full programme on the weekend of March 20-21.

Brutal Bulls. Beautiful rugby. Bumper crowd.

Published

on

By

The Bulls were brutal in their slaughter of the Sharks, but the rugby they played was beautiful.

And 33 000 made it to Loftus for the celebration.

This was another statement made by Johan Ackermann’s Bulls. A few weeks ago they were as imposing in scoring 52 points against the Lions at Ellis Park.

They won 41-12 against the Sharks at Loftus on Saturday, but with more accurate goal kicking, they would have passed 50 points.

The Sharks, but for a brief period in the second half, were never in this game. They were shut out defensively in the opening quarter and when the Bulls got a chance to strike, they did so through the Midas touch of Canan Moodie.

Moodie is a special player, whether playing right wing or outside centre.

On Saturday, he played in the No 13 jersey, and defensively he produced a masterclass to contain the dangerous Jurenzo Julius. On attack, he was even better. Moodie glides, but there is an acceleration that is a differentiator. He showed this in scoring his try after inside centre Harold Vorster had made the initial running.

Vorster was outstanding against the Lions and he was influential against the Sharks. He was up against the in-form Andre Esterhuizen, the Sharks captain and bulldozer.  He stood his ground and provided pivotal attacking moments.

Esterhuizen is a beast and he is always going to keep three defenders busy, but on Saturday even he was powerless to halt a Bulls stampede that yielded four tries within 35 minutes.

Vorster made two tries and scored the final one of the match.

Bulls scrumhalf Embrose Paper benefitted from accuracy in his support line running, but his all-round game was impressive. He kicked with authority and he played with balance. His partnership with veteran World Cup-winning flyhalf Handre Pollard will be significant in the Bulls charge for the play-offs.

The Bulls forwards, collectively, were united and in sync. Individually, Elrigh Louw, Nizaam Carr and Ruan Nortje were prominent, and it took replacement prop Wilco Louw just one scrum to stabilise the Bulls scrum when introduced in the 55th minute and just a second scrum to win the Bulls a penalty.

The Bulls, transformed in playing style, discipline, conviction, attacking shape and defensive mongrel from the side that lost seven successive matches in all competitions earlier in the season, made it four wins on the bounce in the URC, with three of them being away from home.

I was at Loftus for the Bulls Investec Champions Cup defeat to Bordeaux when they conceded 21 unanswered points in the second half and failed to score a point in the last 40 minutes after scoring 33 points in the first half.

I watched them disintegrate against Bristol in conceding four tries within 15 minutes and 61 points.

Ackermann was at a loss to explain the ineptness of such quality players, the lack of care for the ball when in possession, the ease with which they raised the white flag defensively and the lack of appetite for the jersey.

They were a shambles.

URC ORIGIN WEEKEND: SA SCHOOLS SYSTEM WORKS

Ackermann had inherited support staff coaches in Andries Bekker and Chris Rossouw, who had been long-time assistants to the departed head coach and Director of Rugby Jake White.

Ackermann had to make a change and get his own assistants into the coach’s box, take charge of the forwards and lay down the law that this was his team and that they would play his way, which has always been a convincing mixture of power and pizzaz.

What I saw at Loftus against the Sharks was a team coached by Johan Ackermann, playing with the balance he preaches as a coaching philosophy and with the heart that he has always demanded from players.

They cared.

They defended their try line when leading 36-12 as if they were leading 13-12.

There has been a cultural shift for the Bulls, led by Ackermann, who in the seven successive defeats in all competitions earlier in the season, insisted that things would change for the better.

They have and the wins against the Lions and Sharks are confirmation that the Bulls are back and that alone is a thing of beauty in the context of South African rugby.

As for the Sharks, to borrow from their coach JP Pietersen, the past fortnight has been a case of one step forward and three back, especially after the back-to-back wins against the Stormers.

Clarity beats clutter as lethal Lions outthink and outplay the Stormers

Published

on

By

The difference at Ellis Park was clarity of thought and a respect for ball possession. The Lions had it and the Stormers didn’t.

Heroic defence in the final quarter complemented an on-field rugby intelligence the Stormers could not match as the Lions won 24-10 in their Vodacom United Rugby Championship derby.

It was a match they never looked like losing as a double strike within a few minutes took them to 14-0 after the first 20 minutes had been scoreless.

Morné van den Berg controlled the derby from the first quarter and never loosened his grip. The Springbok scrumhalf was decisive, accurate and composed.

Van den Berg’s kicking game turned the Stormers repeatedly and his contestable kick led to winger Angelo Davids’ chase and offload for Siba Mahashe’s opening try. Minutes later, a clever short bounce kick from Van den Berg created indecision and Henco van Wyk profited. Two moments. Two correct decisions. Fourteen points.

The Lions kept it simple: catch, pass and kick when required. They attacked from the right areas and forced the Stormers to play from deep. They needed just 24 tackles in the first half because they owned territory and possession.

The Stormers looked like a side that had not played for a month. Their aerial work was poor. Their handling was loose and their decision-making was muddled. When they had the ball, they forced offloads and when they required patience, they rushed most things.

This is a team that in the last month has sought the sensational in execution when the situation screamed simplicity.

The Stormers improved at scrum time after the break and gained territory. The Lions conceded penalties and lost two players to head-contact cards, playing with 13 for a decisive period and 14 v 15 in the final five minutes.

That should have been the Stormers’ moment, when having 15 versus 13, but it wasn’t because of poor decision-making and a disregard for the preciousness of the ball in the contact.

Held up three times over the line, they failed to score a single point in the final half hour despite the numerical advantage. The Lions defended with determination, but also structure in the final quarter, and attacked with potency when transitioning. The Stormers, who self-destructed often in their own half, attacked without precision when given so many try-scoring opportunities in the second half.

URC ORIGIN WEEKEND:  SA’S SCHOOLS SYSTEM WORKS

The win was the Lions fourth from their six derby matches and it secured them the SA Shield, with the winner determined exclusively from the derby matches. The Lions also consolidated a top eight URC league position.

The Stormers, unbeaten and top a month ago, have now lost three straight league matches and four of their last five in all competitions.

South Africa’s State of Origin – our Schools system works

Published

on

By

The elite layer is concentrated but across the Bulls, Lions, Sharks and Stormers there are 64 schools represented. That tells you the base of the South African game is broad and that the state of Origin on this celebratory United Rugby Championship Origin weekend is healthy.

The natural feeder system is in Paarl and Stellenbosch. It has always been the case with Paarl Boys High, Paarl Gim, Paul Roos and Boland Landbou producing elite professional players with each matric cycle.

Grey College, in the past 30 years, has owned the title of a Springboks and professional rugby player factory more than any other school in the country. Others, like Boshaai, Gim and Paul Roos are always present, but over this period Grey College has produced the greatest number.

In this URC season, Grey College and Boshaai share the top spot of providing 18 players, split across all four South African URC clubs.

Krugersdorp’s Monument (Lions) and Bishops (Stormers) are a celebration of home grown talent graduating from schoolboy to professional rugby without having to relocate, while the traditional rugby powerhouses in Kwazulu-Natal (Glenwood, Hilton, Westville and Maritzburg College) continue to make a statement that local is lekker in KZN.

The Bulls, of the four SA clubs, have the most extensive recruitment drive, and have over the years consistently been leaders in securing the most sought after talent, be it out of school or at a later stage.

Bloemfontein, by way of Grey College, and Paarl, are greater feeders for the Bulls, who have not relied exclusively on the Schools Big Five. Many a player from local schools has proven good enough to be contracted.

The Stormers will also feel they’ve been true to realism in their recruitment because there are only so many players who can be signed and the core of the country’s elite talent comes out of the Western Cape.

The fact that these players are willing to relocate and are so sought after is what ensures a balance in domestic strength, which is illustrated in this season’s URC SA Shield. With two rounds to play, any one of the four teams could win the Shield. The final SA derby is played at Loftus between the Bulls and Stormers, and the Shield winner could come down to this match.

There could also be a situation where all four teams end on three wins from six.

BULLS v SHARKS: WIN WITH AFRICA PICKS

A post shared by SA Rugby magazine (@sarugbymag)

The elite layer is concentrated, with Grey College and Boshaai the most prominent producers of professional players, but the good news story is a reach that extends to another 62 schools.

What it says to me is that if you are good enough you will make it, regardless of the school you attended.

One only has to look at the composition of the back to back World Cup-winning Springboks to have this point reinforced. So many of those gold medal winners did not come through the elite and premier rugby schooling institutions.

The URC’s Origin weekend is a celebration of a player’s roots, and an acknowledgement of where it all started, but it is also a statement of what is good in the schools system in South African rugby.

TOP 10 SCHOOL PRODUCERS OF SA-BASED URC PLAYERS IN 2025/26

1. Grey College 18 players

  • Bulls: 8

  • Sharks: 4

  • Stormers: 4

  • Lions: 2

1. Paarl Boys’ High School 18 players

  • Lions: 6

  • Sharks: 5

  • Stormers: 4

  • Bulls: 3

Behind them:

3. Paul Roos Gymnasium 12

  • Stormers: 5

  • Sharks: 4

  • Bulls: 2

  • Lions: 1

4. Paarl Gimnasium 10

  • Bulls: 4

  • Stormers: 4

  • Sharks: 2

5. Hoërskool Monument 9

  • Lions: 7

  • Sharks: 2

Those five schools alone account for 67 contracted players across the four South African URC franchises.

That is the spine of the professional game.

Then comes the second tier:

Glenwood High School 8

  • Sharks: 4

  • Lions: 2

  • Bulls: 2

Bishops Diocesan College 8

  • Stormers: 6

  • Bulls: 1

  • Lions: 1

Westville Boys’ High School 5

  • Sharks: 3

  • Bulls: 1

  • Lions: 1

Maritzburg College 5

  • Sharks: 3

  • Stormers: 2

Afrikaanse Hoër Seunskool (Affies) 4

  • Bulls: 1

  • Sharks: 1

  • Lions: 1

  • Stormers: 1

The deeper story is:

  • 64 schools represented

  • 37 schools with one player

  • 11 schools with two players

  • The rest clustered at three and above

So what does it tell us?

First, the elite rugby factories still dominate the professional pipeline. Grey and Paarl Boys are not historical brands they are current production leaders. Paarl Boys High, Paul Roos, Paarl Gim, Bishops and Grey College remain structurally embedded in the Stormers and Bulls pathways. Monument underpins the Lions and Glenwood, Westville and Maritzburg sustain the Sharks.

Second, recruitment has shifted. The Bulls are the most nationally constructed squad: eight from Grey, four from Paarl Gim, three from Paarl Boys, two from Paul Roos. Pretoria contracts beyond provincial borders better than any other franchise.

Third, accessibility remains real. Thirty-seven schools have one representative. That is opportunity and shows that the pathway is not closed but very competitive.

What the numbers from Origin weekend confirm is that the factor model works and that the professional door remains open to any player who is good enough.
