Springbok Women eye complete 80-minute display ahead of US rematch at Loftus

In a recent rugby match at Ellis Park, the Springbok Women initially performed strongly against the US Women's Eagles, leading 29-0 at halftime with dominant set pieces and confident attacking play. However, the US team regrouped in the second half to score three tries, highlighting areas the Springbok Women need to improve. Coach Swys de Bruin emphasized that the match provided valuable insights for upcoming challenges, including a rematch at Loftus Versfeld. The team aims to build toward the 2029 Women's Rugby World Cup, with upcoming matches against the Black Ferns and Ireland. Despite the loss in the second half, emerging players like Logan Welman and Alichia Arries showed promise, and the absence of injured key players highlighted the team's growing depth.
