Quicks: Seven try Boks smash Wales in Cardiff

It was never going to be a contest, and in the end the inevitable happened - the Springboks finished off their tour in style with a comprehensive 45-12 victory over Wales in Cardiff on Saturday night.

The Boks scored seven tries to one, but somehow left their fans a bit disappointed as they left at least six tries on the board and weren’t as clinical as they should have been on a night where they dominated every aspect of the game.
