Former Springbok back Ricardo Loubscher's advice for the current Bok players is to silence the fans early on in their match against France.
A hostile environment is expected inside the Stade de France when the Boks take on France on Sunday.This titanic battle will take place at a sold-out Stade de France; the stands will be full of blue jerseys instead of the famous green and gold of the Boks. and the French supporters and ultras, whose wrath was felt in the opening game of the tournament between France and New Zealand, will be in full voice as they look to create a hostile environment for the defending champions.
“From the experience of coaching in France, if you go to a Top 14 match the teams are well supported, and the fans will travel. This one is in Paris, it will be massive.“The fans will be like the 16th man for the French team, and I think they will get a lot of energy knowing they will be supported … silencing them will be important,” he said.
