Re: Springboks vs Azzurri first test Sat.5 July 2025
Both Teams are on a winning streak. Boks over the Baabaas in Cape Town and the Azzurri on tour in Southern Africa over the Welwitchias. The Springbok pack is more powerful than against the Baabaas.

Re: Springboks vs Baabaas in Cape Town 28 June 2025
The first " Springbok " hybrid switch in test rugby experiment in the Baabaas game was a huge success. Surely it’s not the first? I’ve seen Jordie Barrett on the side of a scrum. Eric Rush at 7 & wing. Hell, an AB died this week at age 77, Robbie Stuart of Hawkes Bay. He could play prop and lock an...

Re: Rugby's New Experiment of Backs replacing forwards.
The boks can now automatically switch from their 6-2 split into a 7-1 during the game if tactically required.
It will be great though if they can develop some more reversed hybrids.

Rugby's New Experiment of Backs replacing forwards.
One is used to forwards covering backs but now this is reversed with Backs covering forwards. In the Boks Baabaas game the Boks brought up a Back as a forward tactical replacement. Surely there were backs coming in for forwards before but those were mostly for injuries in an emergency. “You can have...

Normally a forward from bench will cover the backline but here a Springbok backline bench was brought in @ flank.
