Nick Mallett | Manie Libbok's start in crunch WC opener shows all that's great about Bok setup

Manie Libbok starting for the Springboks in a crunch opening World Cup match against Scotland exemplifies the true legacy of Rassie Erasmus and Jacques Nienaber as a Springbok coaching duo: one where success and respect co-exist for a greater good, writes Nick Mallett.

When South African rugby supporters watch guys like Manie Libbok, Kurt-Lee Arendse and Willie le Roux run onto the Stade Velodrome pitch in Marseille to open their World Cup campaign against Scotland on Sunday, it will be a testament to just how progressive the Springbok setup really is.
