England beats South Africa, ends 10-year winless run
Published in The Saudi Gazette on 13 - 11 - 2016

England ended its decade-long winless streak against South Africa in style by scoring four tries in a 37-21 victory at Twickenham,
maintaining the team's 100 percent record under coach Eddie Jones.

It was a sixth loss in 10 games this year for the beleaguered Springboks, who led 9-7 after 30 minutes but were overwhelmed by a 23-point blitz by England in a 15-minute period either side of halftime.

Recalled pair Jonny May and Courtney Lawes grabbed tries for the home side in the first half before George Ford and Owen Farrell added more after the interval, as England extended its winning run to 11 games — 10 of which have come since Jones took charge after the 2015 Rugby World Cup.

The English hadn't beaten South Africa in their previous 12 meetings, stretching back to 2006, and this result highlighted the direction the two teams are heading.

Replacement Johan Goosen and fullback Willie le Roux scored second-half tries for the Boks.
ALL Blacks crush Italy
Italy felt the full effect of a New Zealand backlash as the All Blacks strolled to a 68-10 win at Stadio Olimpico Saturday.

A reaction was expected from the All Blacks after a shock loss to Ireland last weekend for the first time in 111 years, ending an 18-Test winning streak.

Italy has never beaten New Zealand, and knew the best it could hope for was damage limitation.

The damage was limited to 10 tries, all but one of them converted.
The Azzurri couldn't cope with New Zealand's pace and power.
