In a noteworthy announcement on Thursday, the Springboks and Rassie Erasmus announced the coaching team for the next cycle concluding with the Rugby World Cup 2027 in Australia.
The biggest surprise is the unexpected return of World Cup-winning Springbok assistant coach Felix Jones, who will take on this position once again from 1 March 2025.
Overall there are three new additions to the coaching and management groups, namely Jones – who was a member of the team’s triumphant 2019 and 2023 RWC campaigns – as well as Lance Lemmetjies, who will join the medical team as one of two physiotherapists from June, and Robyn Moore, as the team dietician from 1 April.
