The Springboks fullback is readying himself for the World Cup final against New Zealand.
Murray Kinsella Reports from Paris THERE SEEMS TO be a running theme with celebrations at the final whistle upsetting people at this World Cup.
Then, after last weekend’s semi-final between South Africa and England, Springboks fullback Willie le Roux raced forward to celebrate wildly in front of some of the crestfallen English players. “There was no disrespect to any of the English players. I think they thought there was and I immediately told them there wasn’t and then it stopped. There was nothing, nothing about that.”
Billy Stickland / INPHO Le Roux has come off the bench in the past two weekends. Billy Stickland / INPHO / INPHO“There’s always respect,” said le Roux. “The rivalry goes back a long time. The games that have been played against each other, it’s always hard-fought and after the game you can see the guys, they gave it their all.“I don’t think you can ever write the All Blacks off. It’s no surprise at all for them to be in the final.
