Corletto: arrogance Boks’ weakness

ARGENTINA winger Ignacio Corleto has lit the fuse ahead of Sunday’s World Cup semi-final by labelling South Africa arrogant — and he is determined to put the Springboks in their place.

South African centre Jaque Fourie last week insisted quarter-final opponents Fiji deserved no respect because they had never beaten the Springboks.

They were ill-advised comments which only served to fire up the Fijians — and nearly came back to bite Fourie as the Pacific islanders drew level at 20-20 midway through the second half.
