Sports psychologist Henning Gericke divulges his 10-point plan for the Springboks on iol.co.za.
"There are a number of rugby supporters who don’t hold much hope of the Springboks winning the World Cup in New Zealand next year. The criticism of coach Peter de Villiers and several players has been harsh, to say the least, but it has also been justified: The Boks have not enjoyed a good 2010 season, losing five of their six matches in the Tri-Nations.
"But more than the poor results, several senior players lost form, poor selections were made and more recently De Villiers went behind the backs of his two assistant coaches Gary Gold and Dick Muir seeking new lieutenants.
"And now, a week out from the kickoff to the Grand Slam tour – which includes Tests against Ireland, Wales, Scotland, England and the Barbarians – the Boks have it all to do."
