SA Rugby have promised that 'constructive talks' are taking place between Rassie Erasmus and World Rugby as the director of rugby hinted at releasing another social media video.
The former Springbok head coach is currently serving a second matchday ban from World Rugby for criticising match officials after he used his Twitter account to highlight debatable calls made in the losses to Ireland and France on the outgoing tour.
While Erasmus’ latest Twitter post had fans baffled as to what it could be, SA Rugby said in a press release that there are ongoing talks taking place between Erasmus and World Rugby. “World Rugby CEO Alan Gilpin, and World Rugby Director of Rugby, Phil Davies, met with South Africa Director of Rugby Rassie Erasmus on Thursday and held positive discussions regarding recent events and match official communications in general.ALSO: Rassie puts refs on guard against Boks – report
