Well done to our Rugby boys for winning their first game in France this afternoon. You have done us proud. Good luck with the next game. When you come to play England and South Africa, please remember to keep calm and be cool all the time. No punching or high tackles and if you continue to play you like did this afternoon, you will stand a good chance of progressing to the next round. God bless. - Senolita Swan
