Bok Women taught a lesson by slick French
The Star
|September 08, 2025
THE Springbok Women received a sobering dose of reality at the World Cup in the form of the fleet-footed French, who ran up a 57-10 score in the final match of Pool D in Northampton on Sunday evening.
The Springbok Women have been arevelation at the tournament, starting with a 66-6 win over flyweights Brazil, followed by a 29-24 victory against middleweights Italy, but heavyweights France pulled the South African challenge back down to earth. South Africa finished second in Pool D and will play New Zealand in the quarterfinals.
The French, ranked the fourth-best team in the world, outclassed the Bok Women, who were hamstrung by a red card to centre Chumisa Qawe. With both teams already qualified for the playoffs, coach Swys Bruin gave opportunities to players who had not yet featured at the World Cup.
Cleverly, he told his squad that the jerseys were open for the quarterfinals, but few had the chance to impress as they were on the back foot from first whistle to last.
