No reason to believe the Boks won't come good eventually although I suspect the politics both inside and outside of rugby in the Republic could be damaging, wait and see jobbie as far as that goes.

teams will now need to score at least three more tries than the opposition to secure a bonus point. This is the same system used in the French Top 14. For example, if their opposition scores two tries, a team would need to score five tries to earn a bonus point. http://www.supersport.com/rugby/supe...
