Mitchell believes Boks can bounce back against Wallabies
July 22, 2002

All Black coach John Mitchell believes that South Africa could bounce back from their 41-20 defeat on Saturday to upset the Wallabies next weekend.

Talking after their second successive victory in this year's Tri Nations, Mitchell told reporters, "South Africa have a very good chance against Australia. I think they can be encouraged by their performance (against the All Blacks) and can take a lot out of this.

"There are a lot of young players and they are under new management and I think their approach is excellent and in the first 15 minutes they were quite outstanding."
