Rob Houwing’s Bok ratings: Du Toit a classy beacon of calm
Let’s be under no illusions… South Africa had to dig extremely deep to smash their three-game losing streak against a resilient Ireland at Loftus on Saturday.
The very least the visitors deserved, in the first of two Tests, was to end it within one-score distance of the Springboks at 27-20 because earlier 20-8 and 27-15 advantages in favour of the World Cup-holders during the final quarter had unjust looks about them. In a game where several borderline decisions by referee Luke Pearce and his co-officials went the way of the Boks, they were still decent enough value for the outcome as they exercised superior control for the most part.South Africans need to be in the know if we want to create a prosperous future.
