Pride and prejudice lace New Zealand, South Africa World Cup opener by nicksaid
TOKYO - New Zealand’s encounter with South Africa in Yokohama on Saturday may have little influence on the progression of the heavyweight pair to the knockout stages of the Rugby World Cup, but is a chance for both to lay down a major marker in Japan.
“If South Africa or ourselves get beaten, you can either roll over and say, ‘We can’t win it ’, or you say, ‘We have to win all our games from here on in’. It’s a long tournament, a marathon and not a sprint,” he told reporters in Tokyo on Thursday. Hansen provided few selection surprises, with Richie Mo’unga retaining the number 10 jersey and Ardie Savea moving to across the scrum to blindside flank.
That is part of a tight recent run between the sides that has seen just two points separating them on aggregate in their last four meetings.
