Conquerors indeed

I don't think there's too much to be said that hasn't already been said. What a fantastic weekend it was!

I can't imagine there's anyone today who would dispute that the Springboks were the team most deserving of the title. They were calm throughout the tournament, put some excellent scores on the board, and pulled through in the tight games when it mattered. They have the bearing of true champions, and they appear as such a cohesive unit. Not one of them could be accused of having let the side down at any time - they put their heads down and worked TOGETHER to achieve a common goal. Big lessons there for the rest of us...

So the party continues, and will do at least until the Springboks conclude their cross-country tour. Let's hope this feeling stays with us a lot longer than that; we sure need it.
