Rassie Erasmus is set to return to the international stage with a bang in the coming weeks as the release of the documentary filmed over the course of the last year will coincide with the return of the South Africa director of rugby to match days with the Springboks following the expiry of his World Rugby ban.

Erasmus was banned last November by World Rugby after a disciplinary committee found that his behaviour towards match officials during the 2021 South Africa Test series against the British and Irish Lions constituted misconduct.
The six charges brought by World Rugby resulted in him being suspended with immediate effect from all rugby activities for two months and also banned from all match day activities (including coaching, contact with match officials, and media engagement) with immediate effect until September 30, 2022.
That ban has now expired and Erasmus will be involved with the Springboks on their upcoming tour, which begins against Ireland in Dublin on November 5. His new documentary will also soon be broadcast.
It was November 28, just eleven days after Erasmus lost his case against World Rugby, that he first took to Twitter to reveal he would be making a documentary. At the time he wrote, “So excited! Part of a documentary that we are working on (I do have some time at hand) with SuperSport I will be able to share my side of the story!! Thank you, SuperSport TV.”
The way I see it, there are two kinds of ??’s – the ones trying to break the country and the ones trying to build it.

Erasmus has now followed up on that text eleven months later, priming South African fans that the documentary will soon be broadcast and also issuing a warning for those who don’t like him. “The way I see it, there are two kinds of South Africans – the ones trying to break the country and the ones trying to build it. The official Rassie documentary is coming soon on SuperSport TV. I suggest flawless people give it a skip!”
The previous SuperSport documentary that Erasmus was involved in was the award-winning Chasing the Sun which captured the journey of the then-head coach and his South Africa team to World Cup glory in Japan in 2019.
