Ashwin back as TV pundit

Former Springbok and ex-SuperSport studio presenter Ashwin Willemse is set to return to South African screens as a rugby analyst.

Willemse, who played 19 Tests from 2003 to 2007, will bring his experience and passion for the game to eExtra’s new show, BÔll & Ôll. The programme will air on Sundays at 6:30pm on Openview eExtra, with a rebroadcast on Saturdays on e.tv.

Willemse, alongside presenter JP Keyter, will host the weekly talk show with a focus on local rugby.

eExtra’s announcement comes six years after Willemse’s dramatic exit from a SuperSport broadcast, where he accused fellow analysts Nick Mallett and Naas Botha of racism.

An independent investigation found no evidence of racism, leading to Willemse and SuperSport parting ways.
