      @Ricardo.08 I agree, but you know Rassie will still keep Pollard as the number 1 flyhalf. Also, because Sacha can play multiple positions, he'll be treated like Frans Steyn who is a bench player who came on as a utility back. It would be a huge waste of potential if he remains as a sub for the boks. I think he needs to be our starting fly half for this rugby championship

    I thought this would be a blow out seeing as the B team the springboks named was actually bringing back internationals like Am, Reinack and Mapimpi. Portugal did incredibly well to get their own scores.

    Great start against the Springboks, who are the nr 1 team in world rugby for a reason... Solid game by Portugal, my Italy a couple of years ago would have lost this game without scoring a single try, ant all those were beautiful! I mean, in the last one two different Lobos have eluded Am, one of (it not the) best defender in the world

    Pretty telling boks had to resort to a maul for their early try. Brave effort from Portugal with such a massive physical difference with the size and speed of the boks. It took an average of 3 Portugal players to tackle 1 bokke.
    Kind of makes you miss the days when teams didn't have such massive humans who are also incredibly athletic.

    I normally rally for the underdog, but I find distasteful that many comments are patronizing Portugal, or Chile or Uruguay, and other Tier 2 countries. It is binary thinking! From Tier 1 countries viewpoint, these are excellent opportunities to get uncapped players to prove themselves without losing too much face if things go wrong, so these can have an excuse. Still, the score must look really good because that is all most followers will remember....

    As far as I know the Portuguese team has no professional players. This will be a very useful game for them and will hopefully see them improve. If World Rugby are serious about expanding the game then these games should be promoted. With better coaching and investment in the game in Portugal who knows how much they will improve over time?!

    • @joelmonteiro1419

      That’s no longer true. We have a few amateurs on the team (including Jose Santos, who scored 2 of our tries in this game), but over half the team is professional. Most play in the French D2.
