When it comes to Rassie Erasmus, one thing is certain: HE NEVER DOES THINGS HALFWAY. His latest Springbok squad announcement has left rugby fans buzzing with excitement and disbelief. Sure, you’ll see familiar names like Cheslin Kolbe and Peter-Steph du Toit on the list, but it’s not the veterans who’ve got everyone talking – it’s the new kids on the block and a certain big return. Straight out of the gate, Erasmus made a BIG STATEMENT. Five uncapped players, including Junior Springbok captain Riley Norton and SA U20 fly-half Vousy Moyo, will don the iconic green-and-gold for the very first time. Add to that the triumphant return of two-time World Cup winner Faf de Klerk, who’s been sidelined since 2025, and you’ve got a squad uniting the past and the future like never before.
