A short 18-month stint at Munster in Ireland gave him great insight into the workings of Irish and international rugby before moving back to SA as Springboks Assistant Coach in 2018 and eventually Springbok Head Coach from 2020 to 2023 when the team won the Rugby World Cup in France in November 2023.
His Springbok CV is impressive with back to back Rugby World Cup wins in 2019 in Japan and 2023 in France as well as a series win over the British and Irish Lions in 2020 .
