🤬 SCOTT STEVENSON’S LATEST INSULTS SPARK RASSIE ERASMUS' FIERY RETORT! | SPRINGBOKS NEWS
In a dramatic turn of events, South African rugby coach Rassie Erasmus has been at the center of a heated controversy following comments made by New Zealand pundit Scott Stevenson. Appearing on SENZ’s alongside former All Blacks star Israel Dagg, Stevenson made some rather unsavory comparisons, likening Erasmus to infamous movie villains Baron Vladimir Harkonnen from and Jabba the Hutt from . While Stevenson's comments were meant to criticize Erasmus' tactics and persona, they quickly took on a personal tone, sparking outrage from Springbok fans and drawing global attention.
Stevenson, known for his sharp and often provocative commentary, questioned Erasmus' handling of the Springboks' recent team selections. Referring to the last-minute inclusion of Eben Etzebeth, who was originally said to be ruled out with an injury, Stevenson remarked, “What is it with Rassie?

Unsurprisingly, these remarks went viral, with fans from both camps taking to social media platform X (formerly Twitter) to voice their outrage.
