GAME DAY I Springbok boss Rassie Erasmus eyes All Blacks scalp for 100th Test milestone
Rassie Erasmus marks a century of Tests involved in the Springbok setup as South Africa aim to clinch a historic series victory over the All Blacks in Baltimore.
Rassie Erasmus, the Springbok boss, is poised to make history as he approaches his 100th Test in charge of the national team. The opportunity to mark this milestone in style could not be better than on Saturday, when the Springboks face off against their historic rivals, the All Blacks, at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore. With the Boks having already taken a 2-1 lead in the Rugby’s Greatest Rivalry series, a win on this pivotal stage would cement Erasmus’s legacy as one of South Africa's most successful rugby coaches.
Erasmus took over the Springboks in 2018 and has led them to unprecedented heights, including two Rugby World Cup triumphs and a British & Irish Lions series victory. The stage is set for a historic showdown, with the emotional support of South African fans and the electric atmosphere expected at the stadium.
