Le XV de Sakura, qui a commencé sa défense de titre en battant Hongkong China mercredi 22 mai, a planté 10 essais lors d’une performance ultra dominante au King’s Park Sports Ground, s’adjugeant ainsi une sixième couronne asiatique.

Grâce à cette victoire, le Japon décroche à la fois son billet pour le WXV 2 2024 en Afrique du Sud mais aussi pour la Coupe du Monde en Angleterre en 2025, rejoignant les Red Roses, la Nouvelle-Zélande, la France, le Canada, l’Irlande, l’Afrique du Sud et les États-Unis pour le tournoi majeur de l’année prochaine.

Le Asia Rugby Women’s Championship se conclura samedi 1er juin avec le match entre Hongkong China et le Kazakhstan (coup d’envoi à 18h30 heure locale). Le gagnant de ce match se qualifiera pour le WXV 3 à Dubaï en tant que vice-champion, gardant ainsi l’espoir de rejoindre le Japon à la Coupe du Monde de Rugby Féminin 2025.

The Springboks have something you don't have

Rassie has done very well with the Boks. The well will certainly not dry up soon. The amount of young talent coming through, that don't even stand a chance of making it in before 2027, is just absolutely amazing.


However, Rassie has proven to be a rugby genius. He will never rest on his laurels. It's why he keeps evolving tactics, keeping everyone on their toes. He doesn't underestimate any team. He is very aware of just how close the top teams is.


There will be no complacency not will he relax with his main stars. He is very astute, knowing that his team is getting older and thus giving the younger players much more playtime than what any other coach would do.


By the time the 2027 WC comes around, he will be prepared to defend his title and he knows one bad day will end a triple WC crown. Competition is that close. The Boks are in transition, even though it doesn't look like it.


After the 2027 WC, most of the double (possible triple) WC champs players will become unavailable due to retirement from international rugby. Rassie is already preparing the replacements, getting caps under their belts.


The top teams is just too close to underestimate and no Bok will be allowed to get complacent. Although they are by far the current most successful team and clearly the best by miles, they are not undefeatable.


Very tough to beat yes, but they can lose on the day. I am not worried. The youngsters by 2027 WC will be experienced with lots of years ahead and that should be a warning to the rest of the pack biting at their heels. Love them or hate them, but you have to admire the Boks. They truely deserve to be top dogs currently.
