Boks seek to end Dublin hoodoo against Ireland
The Star
|November 20, 2025
THE Springboks will return to Dublin this weekend chasing a victory that has eluded them for more than a decade.
South Africa last beat Ireland at the Aviva Stadium in 2012, and Saturday’s clash (7.40pm kickoff) offers the world champions a chance to end a 13-year wait for success in the Irish capital.
They came agonisingly close on their previous visit in 2022, falling 19-16 in a bruising Test that still sticks with Bok winger Cheslin Kolbe. Clashes between Ireland and the world champions have been tight contests in recent years, and Kolbe admits that the Boks’ inability to grab key moments during encounters proved costly.
“We came close in 2022, but we didn’t capitalise on a few opportunities and shots at goal, and that definitely cost us,” Kolbe said about that encounter.

Hope and trust keep South Africans together
IF IT WERE true that politicians without exception are corrupt; that by far most municipalities are incompetent and fail; that the series of Commissions to investigate fraud is a farce and the billions lost will never be retrieved, how do South Africans remain hopeful and forge ahead to pay their taxes and eke out a living?
