WHAT TO EXPECT FROM THE RUGBY WORLD CUP FINAL
The All Blacks notched a convincing 35-20 victory against the Boks in Auckland in the Rugby Championship, but the Springboks rebounded from that with a comprehensive 35-7 victory in their last outing at Twickenham before the RWC kicked off.
However the Springboks don’t believe that match will have any bearing on the Rugby World Cup final.
“This is a completely different game to the last one,” said Davids.
“Both teams would have learned lessons from our previous games, and the New Zealanders are playing much better rugby (than the last match we played against them).
“If you look at the past, you’ll fool yourself. So, the focus for us will be on what we need to do in order to be the best we can.”
