In what could be seen as the biggest clue regarding what's to come after the Rugby World Cup in France, Mzwandile Stick and Deon Davids have had their contracts with the Springboks extended until the 2027 global showpiece slated for Australia.

SA Rugby have potentially given a big clue on the Springbok coaching question after announcing that Mzwandile Stick and Deon Davids' contracts have been renewed until 2027.

In what could be a huge clue as to what the Springbok coaching puzzle will look like after this year's Rugby World Cup in France, Mzwandile Stick and Deon Davids have had their contracts extended until 2027's showpiece slated for Australia. Stick, after the indignity of being made the scapegoat for the Boks' horror year under Allister Coetzee in 2016, has been back in the setup since 2018. Stick then formed part of Erasmus' 2019 World Cup-winning team, while Davids joined the world champions in 2020.

"It was our ambition to retain all the current coaching staff in recognition of the excellent work they have done over the past six years, regardless of the outcomes of the Rugby World Cup later this year, and we are pleased that most of them have agreed to continue with the team."
