The mind games began on Sunday night pvp
South Africa had just booked their place in the last four of the Rugby World Cup, pipping France in an instant classic in Paris, and the Springboks’ director of rugby, Rassie Erasmus, was straight on social media to start his game week stirring pvp
As Erasmus searched for England Rugby’s account on X, formerly Twitter, and clicked the follow button, he knew he would be noticed pvp
At the time of writing, South Africa’s opponents on Saturday are the only account that Erasmus follows pvp
The 50-year-old has form – before Ireland and Scotland’s decisive Pool B encounter, the two Celtic nations were the sole occupiers of the coach’s ‘following’ feed pvp
Such social media tomfoolery will matter little come Saturday but speaks to Erasmus’s unique approach to life and rugby pvp
The architect of South Africa’s World Cup triumph four years ago as head coach, Erasmus has since stepped up into a directorial role, with former assistant Jacques Nienaber taking on head coach duties pvp

It is testament to their willingness to innovate: be it by using seven/one bench splits, trusting two part-time hookers or refining a traffic light system first employed by Erasmus the best part of two decades ago pvp
There is a perception of Erasmus in certain corners as a sort of villain, a narrative most prominent during the 2021 British & Irish Lions tour, when the leaking of a video critiquing referee Nic Berry saw World Rugby levy a two-month ban against South Africa’s director of rugby pvp
He continues to use social media spin as a tactic, calling out Irish journalists during the course of this tournament and poking at New Zealand counterpart Ian Foster when the All Blacks head coach suggested that he had found the Springboks’ “stop-start” defeat to Ireland dull pvp
Certainly, at times, it can seem like he craves attention pvp
The former Munster coach refutes the portrait oft painted of him pvp
In his book, Rassie Erasmus: Stories of Life and Rugby, he describes himself as “quiet” and “uncomplicated”: “I may come across as a loudmouth, opinionated, arrogant, unrepentant … people think I’m extroverted, but I’m not pvp
I find social occasions difficult pvp
”So which is the true Erasmus: the Machiavellian mastermind making the marionette dance with a win-at-all-costs mentality? Or the reserved big-stage manager hidden in the wings, using his natural coaching intuition and attention to detail to get the best out of his group?The truth probably falls somewhere pvp between the two pvp
Previous Springboks players have described he and Nienaber as a bad cop, good cop pair, with the director of rugby a stern taskmaster pvp
Despite that, Erasmus is able to remain popular, knowing when to show a gooey centre beneath the tough exoskeleton pvp
A group of senior leaders within the squad have been given significant responsibility during this tournament; the trust extends both ways pvp

Perhaps that enables him to connect with a playing group drawn from very different backgrounds pvp
In the moments after their win in Yokohama, captain Siya Kolisi tried to get Erasmus to take hold of the trophy, a mark of their bond pvp
The then head coach declined, insisting it was his skipper’s moment pvp
The installation of Kolisi, the Springboks’ first Black test captain, came just a few months after Erasmus replaced Allister Coetzee pvp
“People outside of South Africa might not understand this fully but having a Black Springbok captain is a flammable situation in our country,” the coach recalled to the Daily Mail of the appointment pvp
"I lost a lot of friends when I made Siya captain pvp
There was a lot of nastiness pvp
“Before the World Cup, my daughters’ friends’ parents would say, ‘Tell that f*****g father of yours to stop sucking up for a pay cheque pvp
’ People said it was political pvp
The fight to get people to believe in Siya was a real struggle pvp
” Six years on, Kolisi could surpass Francois Pienaar and John Smit as indisputably the Springboks’ greatest captain – like so many of his bold calls, Erasmus got it right pvp
Like all good leaders, it is clear that there has been learning from the mistakes pvp
While his remorseless initial reactions to the unedifying Berry incident still sit uneasily, there has been a necessary mellowing pvp
South Africa now enjoy a closer relationship with the officials; though former test referee Nigel Owens declined an invitation to join South Africa at this World Cup, the Welshman has been in contact with Springboks camp pvp

“It works both ways pvp
He’s going to make mistakes, we’re going to make mistakes pvp
And the frustration we had in the past, and the lack of communication because of various things with Covid pvp
pvp
pvp
that is in the past pvp
There’s a nice protocol in place, it’s easy to communicate to them pvp
”Nienaber will depart after this tournament for Leinster, with Bath coach Johann van Graan, who succeeded Erasmus at Munster, thought to be among the contenders to take over pvp
His boss was also connected with a move to Ireland, linked with the performance director role left vacant by David Nucifora’s exit pvp
“There’s no truth in that,” Erasmus emphatically stated at the start of the World Cup pvp
“I’m not sure where it’s come from but I definitely haven’t chatted to the IRFU pvp
I’m definitely not following Jacques pvp
” In the shadows or the spotlight, the Springboks’ puppet master continues to pull the strings pvp

Sir Alex Ferguson has described Sir Bobby Charlton as a “tower of strength” for him in a heartfelt tribute to the Manchester United great pvp
Charlton, one of the finest players the English game has ever produced, died last weekend at the age of 86 pvp
After an illustrious career in which he won the World Cup with England and helped United win the European Cup, Charlton went on to serve the club as a director and ambassador pvp
He remained a prominent figure at Old Trafford throughout Ferguson’s glittering 26-year reign as manager, which began in 1986 pvp
In a eulogy to be published in the matchday programme for Sunday’s derby fixture against Manchester City, Ferguson reflected on his appointment and the “personal connection” he had with Charlton pvp
He wrote: “The directors came to meet me in Glasgow and asked what my vision was for the job pvp
I said I would take the same approach I had at Aberdeen, by looking to build up the whole club, not just the team, and that I would do that by developing young players pvp
“As I was explaining this, I saw Bobby nudge one of the other directors and he said, ‘that’s what we want’ pvp
He’d made his mind up pvp
From that moment on he was a tower of strength for me pvp
“It’s no surprise to me that we’ve seen tributes to Sir Bobby from everywhere in the world, on every TV channel and in every newspaper, because he was without question the greatest English player of all time pvp
“People loved him because of all those thunderbolt goals, but it was more than that pvp
My dad used to say that humility in success is a sign of greatness, and that was Bobby pvp
“He never used to boast about his own achievements; it was always about the team and the club pvp
”Charlton’s death came soon after that of Ferguson’s wife, Lady Cathy pvp
He added: “I am so sorry for Lady Norma (Charlton), who was always by Bobby’s side, especially as his health declined, and my thoughts have been with the whole family these past few days pvp
“Unfortunately, I have also suffered the painful loss of my beloved wife, Cathy, this month, and I want to thank the club, the fans, and everyone who has sent me their condolences pvp
