Jake White resigns

Jake White has resigned as the Springbok coach and the end of year tour to Wales will be his last as coach. The game against the Barbarians on the 1st of December will be his last game in charge.
At a news conference in Cape Town White thanked the players and staff that he has been involved with over the last 4 years and he said that his time in charge has been ‘a wonderfull honour’.
White has been unhappy with the way SARU handled the situation surrounding the coaching position and at the press conference he again stated that his contract contains a clause that stipulates that SARU was supposed to talk to him first before any applications was considered. White went on to say that “I walk away with no regrets, but plenty of sadness.”














Boycott South African rugby and its sponsors. I will never go to a rugby match. I will also not watch any match on television and will be canceling my vodacom contract. If you want to play politics you can do so in empty stadiums. You are a lot of fools for allowing Jake White to go. Rugby will die in South Africa. Johan Prinsloo should be ashame of himself. Forget about Stofile. He is just there because he is black and we all know that. He cannot make any contribution to SA Rugby. How can you defend something so wrong. Anyway bye-bye Rugby.
it is so sad when politics, race and jealousy begin to interfere with the pride of a nation! Jake you have made us all proud and we are al so thankful. Bokke! Bokke! Bokke! Nkosi sikelel’ iAfrika!
