Rugby: Erasmus says none of the Under 20s will play for the Boks this year

# Rugby: Springbok head coach Rassie Erasmus says none of the Junior Springboks who recently won the World Rugby Under-20 championship will play for the senior Boks this year. He invited Junior Boks Bathobele Hlekani, Cheswill Jooste and Haashim Pead to the national training camp in Johannesburg. But Erasmus says he only did that because his goal is to build a player base consisting of at least three players for each position, and getting young players involved before the next World Cup in Australia.
