We can't compare Lions to Springboks says Whiteley
from Rugby Hosted by SABC Sport
Springbok eighthman Warren Whiteley says there is a difference between the Lions and Springboks and that no comparison should be made about the national team playing the same brand of rugby as the Lions did in Super Rugby. Whiteley, though, said there were similarities in how the Springboks want to play but that playing at international level was a big step up from playing provincial rugby. Whiteley has warned against taking Argentina lightly ahead of their Castle Lager Rugby Championship Test at Mbombela Stadium in Nelspruit on the 20th of August (17:05) and says that the South Americans will be tough to beat. Whiteley doesn’t think that the Jaguares Super Rugby campaign is a reflection of Argentinean rugby and says that their maiden foray into Super Rugby was typical of a team that was entering the unknown. However, Whiteley believes that Argentina will be a different beast to the Jaguares.
