So glad that AA hire is finally gone. He was a disaster, same as stick and Davids. That said, can't say they didn't get a chance.
Our next junior bok coach should be someone with the potential to coach the boks in the future. We need coaches we deep ties in our player development eco system.
Meyer built his team out of the best age group players for the bulls and it showed, not so much for the boks.
Rassie, was the director of Rugby at WP for many years and most of his squad are players that has Stormers ties.
Jake White was U/21 coach and then 10 years later won the rugby world cup.
Any person taking over the u21 rugby should have the potential to be the next springbok coach.
Bafoona didn't

?? FOOTE FITTED FOR JUNIOR BOKS JOB ??
Former Rebels and UCT Ikeys head coach Kevin Foote is reportedly tipped to take charge of the Junior Springboks.
According to Sunday newspaper Rapport, Foote is favoured to replace Bafana Nhleko, pending approval from SA Rugby Union’s executive committee on Wednesday.
Nhleko, who is highly regarded within SARU, is set to co-coach the Springbok Women’s team alongside Swys de Bruin, both awaiting final approval. De Bruin and Nhleko will succeed Louis Koen, who remains with SARU.
Meanwhile, Philip Snyman is expected to be confirmed as the permanent Blitzboks head coach.
Foote, a former Varsity Cup-winning coach with Ikeys, has a rich coaching background, including stints with the Force and Rebels.
If approved, the 45-year-old could also mentor a future Junior Boks coach. Rapport indicates that this could be part of SARU’s broader strategy to strengthen its high-performance teams.
Thank bloody goodness - that useless Bafana was an insult - sold a talented group of players down the river this year. They had no direction but worse than that was his persistent need to play players out of position.
In one match he had all 5 squad centres starting in the backs - 15, 14, 13, 12 and 10 were all centres
Then he played a flank at lock and our best lock in JF v Heerden at flank
It was a complete shambles
