'Aussies tests make or break for Boks Rugby Championship hopes'
Australia are rebuilding under experienced Kiwi coach, Joe Schmidt, and Bok boss, Rassie Erasmus believes this will make their opponents Down Under extra dangerous.
The Boks will be en route to Australia on Wednesday, ahead of their first test in Brisbane the following week.“We would love to go and win both games there and I am sure knowing Joe really well he will be well prepared and he knows the way I coach because at Munster and I know pretty much a lot about him like he knows about me so no, I don’t think anybody has the edge on someone.”
Erasmus, on behalf on the World Champion Boks, was also quick to extend his congratulations to South Africa’s newest Olympic medalists, the solid gold performance by Siya Kolisi’s sister-in-law, Tatjana Smith and Alan Hatherley, whose bronze medal is the first by a South African in mountain biking, and the Blitzboks who repeated their bronze medal feat of Rio de Janeiro, this time against all odds.
