The Lions toppled the Springboks 22 points to 17 on Saturday at Cape Town but a lot of Lions fans weren’t happy with seeing the ‘Director of rugby’ Rassie Erasmus coming on with the water bottles throughout the game.
Next Saturday is going to be explosive as the Springboks look to pull it back and make it one all to go into the third test. This does look odd and a bit unfair to see the former ‘coach’ on the pitch with the players in every stop in the game. I’m sure the win made it even sweater for Warren Gatland when he saw what Erasmus was doing.

So strange to see Rassie Erasmus as the water boy. It’s like the time Blackadder and Prince George swapped roles.
