Late Tackle: The big Springbok coach debate
By RugbyPass
The #RugbyLateTackle team looks at the current Springbok coaching conundrum and shares their opinion on what role Rassie Erasmus will play.
Howie Kahn, Morgan Newman and Anton van Zyl discuss how Erasmus' role will affect Allister Coetzee. One revelation suggests the pair will bump heads, having already worked together at the Stormers.
The news of Duane Vermeulen's potential return to South Africa has the panel thinking that more of the top players should remain in the country and offers advice as to how to retain them.
Everyone is in agreement that Nizaam Carr's brief stint in the Premiership with Wasps is the potential solution to stop the player drain.
They are also joined by World Cup-winning Springbok wing Bryan Habana all the way from France and opens up about being kept on the sidelines due to injury as well as what the future holds for the speedster.

Even with absences we still had the cattle to make the playoffs. As it was, we nearly stumbled our way into the top 8. Which shows just how easy it was to get there. And still we failed. As for Razor, there are many instances of him patching up the Crusaders roster. Numerous. Several players Id never heard of. Also, using AB legend John Afoa was a classic.
But, some of the games we were losing were from schoolboy errors, or downright confusion. Either the players were really dumb (they weren’t) or they were poorly coached. Given the repetitive nature of errors, brain fades, poor decision making, & loose structures, this all lands with the coaching group.
With only six playoff spots now in SR, & Aussie franchises now consolidated to four, 2025 looks like a tight one. We'll have to tough it out under Penney & hope for the best.
