Boks: Is there still space?
The Citizen|November 27, 2024
Now that the 2024 Springbok season is over, you can be sure several players who didn't feature regularly for the Boks this season, as well as a number of rising stars in the game, will already be thinking of the next six months and what they need to do to break into Rassie Erasmus' squad.
with Jacques van der Westhuyzen

The big question though is: Is there still place in the current Bok set-up for more players?

Erasmus used 51 players in 13 Tests this season, with 12 men making their debuts in 2024.

It is a lot of players and the depth that Erasmus has built is impressive, so one's got to wonder how anyone who didn't feature this year will break into the squad and stay there.
