Ralapelle: New boys have much to learn

South Africa captain Chiliboy Ralepelle admits the team’s new players will have to learn the harsh lessons of international tours after their humbling by Guinness Premiership champions Leicester.

The world champions and Tri-Nations winners were beaten 22-17 by a motivated Tigers XV spurred on by a record 24,000 attendance at Welford Road, swelled by the official opening of the new 10,000-seater Caterpillar Stand.
