WATCH: Rassie Erasmus shares hilarious story about using women's bathroom
Springboks coach Rassie Erasmus shared the hilarious moment he had to use the women's bathroom and got "stage fright".
Saturday saw the Springboks winning their fourth consecutive Rugby Championship match in 2024 and their second consecutive victory against the All Blacks in the competition.
The Springboks' 18-12 victory at the Cape Town Stadium against the All Blacks was also the national team's fourth straight win against their biggest rivals.
With just two games left to go, the national team is on its way to claiming the Rugby Championship title and once again proving they are the best in the world.

After the match, the Boks did, however, pick up the Freedom Cup for the first time since 2009.
During the post-match press conference, coach Rassie Erasmus opened up about a hilarious incident where he had to use the women's bathroom at the stadium.
Sitting with captain Siya Kolisi, Eramsus told the media how he had to rush to the bathroom due to medication he is taking.

"I don't know if this is appropriate, but our coaches box is up there (towards the top of the stadium), and I am taking this medication that makes you go to the toilet quite often. And as I got into the coaches box I thought I won’t make it (through) the first half if I don’t go to the toilet now," said a smiling Erasmus.
"To get to the toilet, you have to walk through the public area, and there is a men's and women's toilet, but the men's queue was long, so the lady (waiting to use the women's restroom) said, I can go in.
"In the bathroom there was another lady, she was obviously dressed, and everything was fine, and I said I really need to get back to the coach's box. She said it was fine and she would just turn around, but then I got stage fright.

"But that's the vibe. The people just carried on. The one guy acted like a police officer, rushing me back to the coaches box, so the crowd was lovely. Even when things weren't going well, they would keep on singing.
"That's the difference between Cape Town crowds and some others. They are still singing when you are losing, and that's nice. But Ellis Park was also amazing last week."
