Canan Moodie Warns Against Premature Celebration of the Rugby Championship

South African player Canan Moodie has urged caution, pointing out that the Rugby Championship title is not yet secured for the Springboks. His statements come after the team’s resounding victory over Argentina. The Boks secured a 67-30 victory on Saturday, demonstrating their superiority, especially in the second half of the match. This triumph positions them at the top of the championship standings, although with a minimal one-point lead over New Zealand. The next challenge will be the second match against Los Pumas, which will be played in London, at Twickenham Stadium. Moodie acknowledged the importance of travel and the preparation needed for this encounter.

The Rugby Championship is not yet won. We know that we still have work to do next week, and there is also the issue of the trip on Sunday, so we will maintain focus and continue to work hard to get the desired result next weekend. Then we will have something to celebrate.

Moodie anticipates a combative performance from Argentina, who will seek to close their participation in the tournament with an outstanding performance.

They will come out with everything because they are a nation passionate about rugby, and they will analyze Saturday’s match to fight again. That said, we must focus on ourselves and make sure we do the job, instead of looking at everything else. For us, the focus is on trying to do the job on Saturday.

Moodie also highlighted the importance of maintaining the game structure and established strategy, especially during the second half of the matches.

We try to stick to our structures and, after the break, we don’t try to go off script. It’s definitely a reason why we’re doing well, and it’s definitely a merit of that, and of trying to stick to our system. We have a good balance in the way we do things and it seems to be working for us.
