Late Tackle: Jaguares have earned their place in Super Rugby

Not too long ago, Anton 'Worms' van Zyl questioned the Jaguares' Super Rugby inclusion as they offer little value to the competition and, as recent results would have it, he accepted the backlash.

We all experience a bit of foot in mouth syndrome from time to time and maybe things are a little worse than normal when that occurs in the public eye - as Worms found out. But then again, he was justified to make those remarks at a time when the South American franchise was struggling.

Credit to him though as he took the backlash like a champ.
