“I don’t know why we were so flat‚” a perplexed Dobson said.

The home team responded positively but it was the kind of response Dobson had been preparing his team to expect and yet they were oddly passive throughout the match.“Our body language from the start was not good and we were well beaten in the kicking game. Curwin Bosch and Rhyno Smith were exceptional in pinning us back.

“Unions like ours want to host play-off games so we can’t afford another loss in this shorter campaign.” Western Province were always forced to play catch-up‚ and despite scoring two second half tries‚ they never looked like winning the match.
