    Former All Black Cory Jane reckons the boot-to-ball is only going to become more frequent

    Former All Black Cory Jane reckons the boot-to-ball is only going to become more frequent


    The first test between the ABs and Springboks at Eden Park produced 65 kicks ... with the modern ruling making catching a high ball tougher, as players will be penalised for protecting their jumper.

    Jane expects that number to continue rising, as teams rely more and more on kicking.



    Build-up from 6pm and live commentary from 7, on Newstalk ZB, Gold Sport and iHeart Radio.
