Description: Two men sit in a pub drinking and reading the newspaper. The first man says 'The SAS is coming back from Afghanistan to help out at next year's Rugby World Cup!' and the second man reading an article headed 'Boks arrive to extend All Blacks battering' wonders if there is any chance they could be back next Saturday?' The little Evans man says 'Burger Botha and the beast!' Context: On 4th May 2010 Prime Minister John Key said 'Security around next year's Rugby World Cup could limit the Government's ability to keep elite troops in Afghanistan'. The Springboks secured the season crown for the 2009 Tri-Nations series in their final match on 12 September, defeating the defending series champion All Blacks 32-29 in Hamilton; in fact the All Blacks lost all three of their games against the Springboks. However in July 2010 the All Blacks beat the Springboks 31-17. Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).
