We will have copies of the South African national anthem, as well as God Save the Queen. We will sing lustily to both, and have a few beers, in anticipation of a great game. Such is the beauty of Rugby, in contrast to the carping and winging of Australia and New Zealand. Both were fairly beaten, but neither seem to have inherited the sportsmanships and fair play of GB. We do not blame the players who have been exemplary in sportsmanship, but a hysterical press. Sad, in view of the fact that these are among the best Rugby nations. The whole point of all nations competed is that it promotes the game in all parts of the world. Long may it continue !
