The Springboks have laboured in attack in three of the four halves they played thus far in the three-Test series against Wales.
14 July 2022 - 17:35Cheslin Kolbe, who has scored 10 tries in 19 Tests, says scoring them requires huge collective effort from the team.The Springboks have laboured in attack in three of the four halves they have played thus far in the three-Test series against Wales.
Last weekend's 13-12 defeat in Bloemfontein wasn't just hard to swallow because it was Wales' first win over the Boks in SA, it was rendered unpalatable because the hosts failed to score a try. “Hopefully, we will see a few tries, but it’s not just going to happen, a lot of hard work is going to have to go into it,” said Kolbe at the team's base this week outside Hermanus.
Their time-honoured way of achieving that is to deliver unrelenting body blows up front, which leaves the opposition open to foibles and folly which are gleefully seized upon by their spring-heeled three-quarters.Kolbe has been one of the team's principal predators but he recognises the virtues of collective grunt.
