Boks showed dominance, says disappointed Kitshoff
The Mercury
|September 08, 2025
SPRINGBOK great Steven Kitshoff feels the Springboks were the more dominant team in the Eden Park showdown with the All Blacks and is convinced they will bounce back this week in Wellington.
The Boks started the Rugby Championship match in Auckland poorly but were on top in the second half, before losing 24-17.
"It was a disappointing result because the Springboks had plenty of opportunities to score points or enter into the New Zealand 22" said Kitshoff, who was a ZARbet ambassador, at Pirates Rugby Club on Saturday in Johannesburg.
"A couple of things went against them, but in my opinion, the Springboks were the more dominant team, and it makes for an exciting second Test."
Kitshoff, a veteran of 83 Tests at loosehead prop for South Africa, was a fascinated observer of the set scrum battle.
