Aphelele Fassi has lifted the lid on how harsh words from Eben Etzebeth and the Springboks helped the Sharks turn their struggling campaign into a historic European final.
It is an incredible shift in a campaign that started with five losses in a row and just four wins in all competitions until late March. “We had a two-week break… Eben said we don’t want to have this kind of feeling again and that we don’t want to be the laughing stock of SA rugby again,” Fassi told“From there, the mindset shifted and that put the Sharks’ brand in a better place, and being in a competitive team sport, you don’t want to be last all the time.
