Rassie Erasmus and Jacques Nienaber were both delighted to welcome Elton Jantjies back into the Springbok fold, despite the flyhalf’s controversial 2022 season.
After a move to Japan fell through, the 47-Test Jantjies was offered a career lifeline by Agen, who play in France’s second division, and has started seven games since January, scoring 65 points. “He is close to 50 Test matches, and he has been in our environment. It is nice to get him in the mix for the two injured guys. In a week or two’s time, we can have all four of them.
“With a player that has been with us — like Kwagga [Smith] or Pieter-Steph du Toit — it is easy to evaluate those guys because you know them. You can look at his actions, his fitness, and how he is doing.
