Springboks downplay French ‘revenge plotline’
The Mercury
|November 04, 2025
WHILE the French will be whipping themselves into a frenzy for their rematch with the world champion Springboks, the South Africans are downplaying the “revenge” theme intrinsic to this encounter.
This Saturday in Paris marks the first match between the teams since the Boks’ dramatic 29-28 victory in the 2023 World Cup quarterfinal at the same venue. The one-point win ended the host nation’s hopes of glory, and they have complained of “robbery” ever since.
Yesterday, the Boks’ Irish assistant coach, Felix Jones, performed media duty and cut a calm figure, failing to rise to the bait offered by local journalists. Jones admitted that while there may be extra attention on this match because of the World Cup drama, the Boks’ focus is solely on ensuring they are as well prepared as possible going into the game.

South Africa’s G20 moment exposes deep cracks at home and abroad
OUR COUNTRY is not in the space it should be in. As a host of G20 we would have loved to be a shining star that had dealt poverty a blow, a place where corruption was dealt with firmly, where children have a brighter future, taps are not only running but are oozing label blue water, with smooth streets, where women feel safe, and children are assured of a meal daily.

Hooray for my English teacher who taught me satire
FOR those pupils that played hooky to catch fish while educators were teaching \"metaphors\" \"irony\", \"sarcasm\", etc, and others who missed my tongue-in-cheek take in The Mercury last week regarding the \"swarms\" of Palestinians who would soon not only invade our free country, take-over all our green fields, set up their throne in New Pretoria, and even shunt all of us \"indigenous\" Indian, White and Black people into a fenced off area in the northern Cape, after the international powers that be justified all of that, by \"just saying\" that the \"Palestinians were always here\" and were, in present-time, actually experiencing a holocaust of their own, back home, so really deserved to be freely commuted here: Excuse me!
