The Bok boss hailed Pieter-Steph du Toit’s second World Player of the Year title. Seven Boks were also named in the World Rugby Dream Team while Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu missed out on the Breakthrough Player of the Year award.

“I am so proud of them,” said Erasmus, reflecting on the world champion Boks’ achievements in 2024 that included 11 wins from 13 Tests and claiming the Rugby Championship title.
