Earls' eight-minute hat-trick sees Munster crush Edinburgh

What you see of South African rugby, the franchises and Springboks is a tiny fraction of the game in South Africa. South Africa has four times the registered number of rugby players than Australia and New Zealand combined. The development programme (players of national interest starting at school level) began 15 years ago and over the past five years has come to fruition. South Africa left the SH because it is generally believed that SH rugby is headed down a narrowing tunnel and the future of rugby is in expanding European nations. The Island nations always played rugby and their rugby registrations are barely discernible from NZ and Aust. Go and check the number of players who left South Africa as fringe Boks spent a few seasons in the North and came back superstars going back to Percy Montgomery through Faf de Klerk, to Jean Klein and Jasper Wiese. These are just a few. My advice to the young players who I have coached is to go and spend a couple of seasons in the north where franchise rugby is much more like test rugby than the SH comps which are obsessed with high scoring end to end running rugby which is attractive if you happen to like league.
