What might an England XV with Rassie Erasmus look like? The South African coach has stated that if the appropriate situation arose, he would love to coach the men in white.
After being found guilty of misconduct for criticising authorities during last year’s British and Irish Lions tour, the outspoken Springboks boss only recently completed a two-month punishment.
“I don’t think the English people would ever want me there now,”
“Maybe I am wrong. I hope I am wrong. Would I coach another country? If my own people were cool with it and the other country’s people were cool with it then why not?”
