“Rassie Erasmus Anticipates Aerial Assault from Struggling England Ahead of Clash”

Rassie Erasmus, the head coach of South Africa, anticipates an aerial assault from England as they prepare for their upcoming match. He has noted the selection of England's Ollie Lawrence, which aligns with his expectations for the struggling team. The Springboks made significant changes, with 12 new players from the squad that recently triumphed over Scotland. Erasmus revealed that the team was selected three weeks ago during a training camp in Jersey, and he believes that England's performances against New Zealand and Australia have only reinforced his initial assessments. The two narrow defeats have likely intensified the pressure on England, a situation Erasmus is familiar with from his own experiences. “When you lose two games, even if it’s by a point or due to a last-minute try, the pressure begins to mount,” Erasmus explained. “I’ve been in that position before, and I understand how quickly it can affect you. In such circumstances, teams often revert to their tried-and-true strategies.”
