  • It was not a pretty sight for SA teams in the Champions Cup this season, and none of them have reached the playoffs - but there is hope for next season, writes Ashfak Mohamed.

The article from MSN Sports discusses the anticipated competitiveness of South African teams in the upcoming Champions Cup season. It highlights that following their initial participation in the European competition, South African teams have gained valuable experience which should translate into better performance. The article points out several reasons for this optimism: firstly, the teams have now adapted to the travel and logistical challenges associated with playing in Europe. Secondly, there's an increased understanding of the competition's intensity and style of play, which differs from what they are accustomed to in Super Rugby. Additionally, the article mentions the strategic signings of players and coaches with European experience, which should enhance their tactical acumen. The piece also notes the psychological boost from their previous performances, where they showed they could compete with Europe's best, suggesting that with these improvements, South African teams are poised to be much more competitive in the next season's Champions Cup.
