💨 Abstract

Springbok coach Rassie Erasmus emphasizes that selection is based on performance, not sentiment, as preparations for the 2027 World Cup begin. Key players like Cobus Reinach and Jean-Luc du Preez need to excel to secure their spots. Reinach, despite being 35, faces competition from younger talents, making this season critical for him to prove his value.
