Jake White's Springbok coaching career has ended on a low with his world champion side crashing to a 22-5 defeat at the hands of the Barbarians today.
While the loss left a sour taste in White's mouth, it did provide a fitting finale to the career of England winger Jason Robinson. All Blacks Joe Rokocoko, Conrad Smith and Ma'a Nonu were all involved in setting up one of the Barbarians tries. Former All Black Justin Marshall was a revelation in defence.
These barbarian teams are thrown together with very little training time.. shame the team let Jake White go out like that..
This wasn't on the box here.. did anyone see it??
Nonu was my choice for AB centre afer his performance in the Junior ABs earlier.
