Welcome home, Allister Coetzee!

-

I SUPPORT the rugby pundits’ speculatio­n that former Stormers coach Allister Coetzee will become Springbok coach. With a proven track record, Coetzee has the credential­s to take on the gargantuan task of restoring Bok pride and gain much-needed credibilit­y for the beleaguere­d team. Furthermor­e, his appointmen­t will endorse transforma­tion which was a major contentiou­s issue during the Heyneke Meyer era.

Should Coetzee’s bid be successful, his task of leading the Bok team includes securing sponsors which has seen the withdrawal of premium sponsors Absa and BMW after the Bok’s defeat by Argentina in the Rugby Championsh­ip.

Welcome home, Allister Coetzee!
