Springboks boss Rassie Erasmus has opened up on criticism his side has received despite them being the game’s dominant force at international level in recent years.
Erasmus, who has been coaching South Africa since 2018, is widely regarded as one of the sport’s great thinkers and the Springboks’ attack guru Tony Brown revealed last month how his head coach pushes his assistants to be creative and come up with new ideas.
Under Erasmus‘ guidance, the Boks have won back-to-back Rugby World Cups in Japan (2019) and France (2023), while also clinching a 2-1 series victory over the British & Irish Lions
