It must have been half heart-warming, part soul-destroying to watch his Springbok teammates lift the Webb Ellis Cup after they beat England in the Rugby World Cup (RWC) final in 2019.

Having played the last two Tests and then to miss out on selection before their departure was disappointing, admits Rynhardt Elstadt, but he was stoked by the sight of the fireworks and pyrotechnics behind his teammates on the podium.

Because of the stiff competition for places Elstadt said he was surprised to be named in the match-day squad. His selection, however, is very much in line with the Springbok selection policy, which at the moment seems to revolve mainly around freezing World Cup positions, as well as the pecking order.
