And and they dominated the World Cup.

Uh so they won the World Cup, even though they lose into Ireland and they've won back to back World Cups and

Yeah, but the notion that there is the second fifteen could be the best in the top five teams in the world, I think this series tested that theory a little bit, and the jury is largely out on a lot of on a lot of players.

So I think South Africa are coming to the end of their cycle with this team.

Nine is the interesting one.

So I think Razzie is just going to try and squeeze every last ounce out of this team and try and get a World Cup out of it.
