A win is a win......

is a win and winning breeds much needed confidence but it's early days and so it's hard to get excited until it's clear whether the French are rabble or the Boks were just plain good. I think the score belies the fact that the French threatened the Bok line on numerous occasions and that they looked impressive with ball in hand creating gaps in the Bok defence but then stopped just short of the tryline by the last line of defence. The Boks won't have that kind of luck against better teams like NZ and England.I agree that Marx was impressive, he looked and played like a Bok, Kolisi also had a fine game but as a cohesive unit, nope, it's early days.

 Congrats to the wee Bokke !Damn good to see you chaps stick it to those stinky French gits .So much for NH gap closing .
