Few players in world rugby have built a legacy quite like Pieter-Steph du Toit. A two-time World Rugby Men’s 15s Player of the Year, a two-time Rugby World Cup winner and one of the most respected figures in the Springbok setup, du Toit has become synonymous with commitment, resilience and consistency.

Springbok assistant coach Mzwandile Stick admits that Argentina’s looming presence in the FIFA World Cup final has crossed his mind, warning that a soccer triumph could inject dangerous momentum into Los Pumas ahead of their rugby clash in August.

Former Springbok scrumhalf Rudy Page says he is not concerned about the possibility of South Africa losing assistant coach Tony Brown to New Zealand.

Mr Mark Alexander, the President of SA Rugby, expressed immense pride and gratitude at the end of what has been a very good year for South African rugby during the General Meeting held in Cape Town on Friday.

Rassie Erasmus says he has no problem with the possibility that Springboks may face All Blacks in the quarter-finals of the 2027 Rugby World Cup — a scenario that would recreate the drama of the 2023 final.

Springbok coach Rassie Erasmus says he is satisfied with South Africa’s Rugby World Cup 2027 pool draw as the team continues building towards a historic third consecutive world title.

Springbok lock Eben Etzebeth will appear before a disciplinary committee on Tuesday afternoon, where he will hear his fate, according to News 24, following the red card he received for an alleged eye gouge during last Saturday’s Test against Wales in Cardiff.
