A wounded beast

Rupert Guinness gets the thoughts of former Wallabies coach Eddie Jones and Reds boss Ewen McKenzie about the Springboks' woes in The Sydney Morning Herald.

"Former Wallabies coach Eddie Jones has warned against writing off the world champion Springboks despite their Tri Nations form slump.

"And Reds coach and former World Cup-winning Wallabies prop Ewen McKenzie says the extent of the Springboks' ills won't be known until after they face New Zealand in Johannesburg next Saturday.

"The Springboks lost their first three away Tri Nations Tests - 32-12 and 31-17 to the All Blacks in New Zealand and 30-13 to Australia in Brisbane on July 24. Jones believes their decline is temporary and that they are more focused on the World Cup next year."
