💨 Abstract

Former British & Irish Lions coach Warren Gatland praised Springboks coach Rassie Erasmus for his success, despite their past rivalries. Gatland acknowledged Erasmus's ability to "wind up" opponents and the media, attributing it to his success with South Africa. He predicted South Africa as favorites for the 2027 World Cup and the upcoming Nations Championship, citing their strong set piece, attacking flair, and physicality.
