Rassie Erasmus signs long-term contract extension with South Africa

As director of rugby, Erasmus guided the Springboks to World Cup success in both 2019 and 2023, before his title changed to head coach last year. "This was a quick and easy conversation to reach an agreement," said the former Munster chief. "I have always said that I would find it hard to coach any other international team, and I'm very happy to continue as long as the South African public wants me."
