Schalk Burger has reacted to Rassie Erasmus’ latest Springboks alignment camp selections and pinpoints why it’s important that youngsters get exposure to the environment.
10 uncapped players attended the camp in Cape Town this week, including Lions back-rower Sibabalwe Mahashe and Sharks teenage sensation Zekhethelo Siyaya, who received their first-ever invites.
In the SA Rugby statement announcing the invitees, it was clarified that this 40-man squad is a “purpose and goal-driven” camp with Erasmus adding that it was to expose these players to the team’s structures and systems with an eye on the next two seasons, and beyond.
