Updated | By Breakfast with Martin Bester
Did this video of Andre Esterhuizen’s tackle training just leak from the Springbok camp?
Springbok coach Rassie Erasmus’ comments dripped with sarcasm after Owen Farrell's armless, unpunished 'tackle' from Saturday's clash at Twickenham.
After the game, Erasmus said, “Nothing upset me, because if it was legal we just have to latch on a little bit and tackle the same. If it was legal, we should do it because it’s very effective. To tackle a guy like Andre Esterhuizen like that and stop him in his tracks, that’s unbelievable, so we’ll have to try and practice that.”
