# Rugby: Springbok coach Rassie Erasmus has refused to make excuses for their 42-38 defeat to the Wallabies in Perth yesterday. The Boks trailed 24-17 at half-time and fell 42-17 behind after 63 minutes before a late fightback brought them within four points. However, this was not enough, despite Australia losing four players to yellow cards inside the final eleven minutes. Erasmus, who made 13 changes for this one-off Test, says they put themselves in a position from which they ultimately could not recover:
