- For what it's worth, John Williams was recently (last week?) replaced as
- Springbok coach by Gerrie Sonnekus. Johan Heunis (ex-Northern Transvaal
- full-back) is assistant coach. Both held those positions in the Orange Free
- State last year.
-
- Sonnekus is, I believe, the only player ever to play both in the pack (eighth
- man) and at the back (scrum-half I think) in a Springbok team. Can't remember
- for which provincial team Sonnekus played - Free State?
