Joel Stransky is confident of victory for all four South African teams in this week’s round of Vodacom United Rugby Championship matches against Welsh opposition.
The man who landed the decisive drop goal for the Springboks in the 1995 World Cup final against New Zealand was on commentary duty for SuperSport as Cardiff pulled off a remarkable 35-0 victory over the Cell C Sharks in Durban last weekend.
“I had to commentate on the game and I can tell you it was hard work. It was tough and it was sad in a way,” he said. “It’s easy to say they went in without their Springboks, but they still had a number of talented players on that field. It was a really poor performance.”Stransky commented: “I feel for Sean a little bit, but at the end of the day, when you have got that many massive big names in your squad and so much talent around and you are not winning tournaments and you are losing 35-0, something is bound to break.
“We have loved being part of it, we have loved the change, with the different time periods, the fuller rugby season,” he said.“We loved seeing the Kiwi and Aussie players come to our shores in Super Rugby, but for our players to travel 13 hours to New Zealand, with massive time differences and long tours, it was arduous and it was tough.
