VIDEO: Southern Kings score their first try as a Pro14 side... and it was fast
By RugbyPass
The Southern Kings shipped a big scoreline in their debut Pro14 match against competition Champions Scarlets.
They did however touch down early with a well-taken try that showed once again the out and out pace that both South African franchises possess.
After a promising start – the Kings held a 7-5 lead at the end of the first quarter and trailed just 10-15 at the half-time break – the Scarlets took control in the second half and scored 42 unanswered points to take the match away from the visitors.

I'd rate the brothers Hendricks a point or two lower. Jaden has really not delivered on his early promise and Jordan's kicking at posts was quite erratic. Amongst other things.
I was really surprised that DuhDuh was replaced and not Jordan. DuhDuh had a great game and just underlined his class in a backline that was not firing on all cylinders.
Damian Willemse was missed. Hopefully he'll be back to full fitness and have an injury free 2025 (and '26 and '27 and so on until he decides to retire to spend time with his grandchildren).
RG was great. What an athlete.
Very happy that Hanekom made his debut at last. He gave a good account of himself and will hopefully grow into his role on the international stage.
All things considered, this was another frustrating Bok performance. Even though it was a comfortable win, it wasn't a commanding win. This Welsh team should've been put away by a far larger margin.
But I have faith in Dr Rassie. He knows more than I do. Bring on 2027 😁
