A massively disappointing performance from the Springboks on Saturday made one thing painfully clear - OPINION
It made it very clear that this Bok team will never be able to dominate world rugby like some of the All Blacks sides have during the professional era.
The current Springbok team is incredibly talented and if you were to match them up against the New Zealand sides over that time, they would be able to challenge them. They started their season well, proving their worth by beating the British and Irish Lions 2-1 and then comfortably brushed aside Argentina in two games.
The start of this season has been no different, and the Boks should be enjoying a perfect win record of five out of five, having had the benefit of playing all five games so far on home soil.
