TOKYO: South African flanker Pieter-Steph du Toit was named World Rugby player of the year at a glitzy ceremony in Tokyo on Sunday, with Rassie Erasmus claiming the coaching award, fresh from securing the World Cup title on Saturday.

Erasmus, who will be stepping down as South Africa coach to return to his role as the country’s director of rugby, not only secured the Springboks’ third World Cup title but also led them to a first Rugby Championship win since 2009.Under Erasmus, South Africa have only lost once in 2019, in the pool stages to old rivals New Zealand.

"This has been a long journey to keep believing and trusting and not getting frustrated with each other, keeping the belief going," said Erasmus.
