So much already done, now we must beat Boks

IT WOULD be easy to fall into the trap of thinking that we have achieved all we could have hoped for by reaching the semi-finals of the Rugby World Cup.

So much already done, now we must beat Boks

We’ve become the first team to beat the host nation in a World Cup opening game, and on top of that victory over France we’ve beaten two other Six Nations teams, Ireland and Scotland to get to the last four.

Are we happy? Of course we are. Are we proud? Certainly. Should we go home now, our job done? Never. We’re determined to win every game and we won’t be happy just to reach the semi-finals.
