There's more drama in the Prem as Leicester smash Saints, Bath flex against Glos, and Bristol and Exeter set a new record with ten first-half tries.

Rassie has been ice cold with his selections this week, proving he's not a Fassi eater. Will Sacha flake on the biggest stage of his career? Will the artificially sweetened bomb squad have the desired aftertaste? Will the new lock combination melt or glisten? One thing is for sure - the action won't be vanilla as the Boks take on the All Blacks this weekend. Also, Kristen, we love your ice cream. Please can we have one on the house?

Die Springbok-hulpafrigter, Duane Vermeulen, sê daar is geen plek vir selftevredenheid terwyl die span gereedmaak om Saterdag in Perth teen Australië uit te draf nie. Die wêreldkampioene het die afgelope naweek hulle Rugbykampioenskap-veldtog teen die Wallabies in Brisbane met ʼn 33-7-sege afgeskop. Die Springbok-afrigter Rassie Erasmus kondig vandag sy wedstrydgroep aan. Vermeulen sê veranderinge aan die beginspan kan voordelig wees:

Springbok-afrigter Rassie Erasmus sê hulle gaan ʼn nuwe aanslag hê vir die uitdaging wanneer hulle Australië volgende naweek in Brisbane takel. Met Erasmus aan die stuur, kon die Bokke die Wallabies nog net een keer in Australië klop. Die groep reis vandag na die land waar die Wêreldbeker in 2027 gehou word om so gou moontlik by die klimaat aan te pas. Erasmus sê hulle wil deeglik voorberei wees teen die tyd dat die toetswedstryde begin:

Today we're delighted to be joined by current Springbok & Stormers backrower Evan Roos to discuss; his heartbreak at missing out on Rassie's squad for The Rugby Championship, his thoughts on the Boks new coaching staff and philosophy, the challenges the Boks may face against Australia and his memories of playing in the biggest school boy rugby match in the world Vs Schalk and Jeans Paarl Gim - plus much more....

Keabetswe ‘KB' Motsilanyane led her compatriots in a stirring rendition of Nkosi Sikelel' iAfrika before the Loftus clash between the Boks and Ireland. On social media, it has been described as “the greatest ever.” KB read the crowd exceptionally well, a skill that will serve her well as she pivots towards the business world where she aims to support other artists with management, direction, and advisory services. Yet, she remains committed to following the Boks wherever they compete and her seventh album, recorded with songwriters from Norway and Sweden, will soon hit the airwaves. In an interview with Biznews, KB says she draws inspiration from the courage of the Springboks, Captain Siya Kolisi's confidence, and the way Springbok coach ‘Uncle' Rassie Erasmus “does not mope” when the Boks lose a match.

Saterdag se toets tussen Suid-Afrika en Portugal in Bloemfontein sal vir meer as een rede geskiedkundig wees. Die is die eerste toets ooit tussen die wêreldkampioene en Portugal, en Hollie Davidson van Skotland word die eerste vrou wat in beheer is van 'n Bokkragmeting. Salmaan Moerat maak sy buiging as Suid-Afrikaanse kaptein in 'n groep wat sewe spelers wat in hulle eerste toets speel. Die Bokafrigter Rassie Erasmus verwag die speltempo sal hoog wees in die Vrystaatstadion, waar die wedstryd om vyfuur afskop:

Elite Rugby Banter (the podcast, not the musical) is back with a full complement of 3 (the same number of minutes Willie managed before getting concussed, again). Ireland have won back the Raeburn Shield as well as the rights to Zombie as the emerald greens got in Rassie's head. Jannie de Beer's illegitimate red-haired lovechild quelled a boisterous shark tank, much to Ant's dismay in the stands. The game is dissected along with the other notable series decider between the All Blacks and England. Music by @monstroid, 80s TV Show.

On Tuesday's Rugby Daily, Richie McCormack brings you the Springboks team news ahead of Saturday's second test in Durban. We hear from Rassie Erasmus, who claps back at Matt Williams' 6-2 criticism, plus Bongi Mbonambi hails the influence of Jerry Flannery. France's tour of South America has been mired in scandal, Richie has the latest on the pair arrested for alleged sexual assault. And we hear from Willie Faloon on a day when the rain helps Ireland into the semi-finals of the World U20 Rugby Championship.

Rugby: Die Springbok-afrigter Rassie Erasmus sê hy is verlig hulle het Ierland vir die eerste keer onder sy aanvoering ondergekry. Na drie loesings teen die Iere het die Bokke tevrede gestel met 'n 27-20 oorwinning op Loftus Versfeld. Die twee spanne pak mekaar weer Saterdag in Durban en Ierland sal alles in die stryd werp om die reeks gelykop te maak, terwyl Suid-Afrika vasberade is om skoonskip te maak. Erasmus waarsku die besoekers is oorgehaal om op Kingspark te wen.

The Friends go to the Northern Hemisphere funeral and cry over this weekend's test matches

On Thursday's Rugby Daily with Ann-Marie Donelan Andy Farrell names starting 15 for first South Africa Test, Rassie Erasmus looks speaks fondly of his time in Ireland and the U20s make it two from two with a late, late try.

Springbok-afrigter Rassie Erasmus het ʼn ervare begin-groep met 20 Wêreldbeker-wenners aangekondig wat Ierland Saterdag op ʼn stampvol Loftus Versfeld gaan takel. Daar is 15, onder wie kaptein Siya Kolisi, in die beginspan en nog vyf op die bank. Erasmus sê hulle het ʼn ses-twee-verdeling tussen voor- en agterspelers op die bank met Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu wat voor Manie Libbok is:

Neil Treacy is joined by Bernard Jackman and Jonny Holland to look ahead at Ireland's first Test against South Africa on Saturday. Neil brings the latest news from the Ireland camp in Johannesburg, while Bernard and Jonny analyse how Andy Farrell's side can go about challenging the world champions.

Craig Ray, Daily Maverick Sports Editor reacts to Saturday's line up which will see the Springboks take on Ireland at Loftus. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Die Springbok-afrigter, Rassie Erasmus, sê Pieter-Steph du Toit, Eben Etzebeth en Bongi Mbonambi is voorlopers om die span volgende naweek op Twickenham in die eenmalige toets teen Wallis aan te voer. Kaptein Siya Kolisi is nie beskikbaar nie omdat dit buite die amptelike toets-venster val en sy Franse klub, Racing 92, hoef hom nie vir internasionale diens vry te stel nie. Erasmus sê ʼn finale besluit oor die kapteinskap sal voor volgende maand se reeks van twee wedstryde teen Ierland geneem word:

Die Springbokke is besig met ‘n oefenkamp in Pretoria voor hulle eerste toets van die seisoen aanstaande Saterdag teen Wallis op Twickenham in Londen. Die wedstryd val buite die internasionale venster en klubs is nie verplig om hulle internasionale spelers te verskoon nie. Spelers in Europa, Engeland en Ierland is dus nie beskikbaar nie. Springbokafrigter, Rassie Erasmus, sê dit bied ‘n goeie geleentheid om diepte in die groep te bou:

David O'Sullivan, author of "Rassie: Stories of Life and Rugby," discusses the book with host Bruce Whitfield. In this candid memoir, Rassie Erasmus, known for his genius and unconventional methods, shares his life story. He talks about growing up with an alcoholic father in conservative Despatch, his remarkable rugby career, and his dedication to strategy. Despite his talents, he famously declined the role of Springbok captain.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Die Springbok-afrigter Rassie Erasmus sê hy is tevrede met die grondslag wat by die nasionale span se tweede belyningskamp in Kaapstad gelê is. Die eerste belyningskamp was in Maart, en die tweede wat deur 38 spelers bygewoon is, is die naweek aangebied. Die Bokke skop hul 2024 internasionale seisoen op 22 Junie af teen Wallis. Erasmus sê die kamp was uiters waardevol om die spelers bloot te stel aan gedetailleerde aspekte van die spel wat hierdie seisoen ingestel sal word:

Krieket: Die Proteas pak vanaand die Wes-Indiese Eilande in Jamaika in die eerste van drie T20's. Hierdie reeks sal as 'n belangrike opwarming dien vir die T20-Wêreldbekertoernooi wat volgende maand in die Karibiese Eilande en Amerika gespeel word. Rassie van der Dussen is die kaptein van die Proteas vir die reeks wat hulle die geleentheid bied om aan die Karibiese klimaatstoestande gewoond te raak.
