While the Blue Bulls get ready for their 2013 rugby season, the Springboks are filling the gap with their outgoing tour. Last weekend saw a narrow defeat over Ireland in a game that most would describe as scrappy and a very lucky win for the Boks. It was a poor 1st half but they regrouped and tightened up defensively in the 2nd period which set the platform for their win. This weekend we are in for another action filled rugby weekend with multiple year-end tours being played.
