# Rugby: Springbok coach Rassie Erasmus says they’ve learnt to accept referees’ decisions despite not always agreeing with them. He believes lock Lood de Jager’s straight red card at the end of the first half against France should’ve been a 20-minute red. Erasmus was forced to make difficult decisions during half-time, including taking captain Siya Kolisi off in his 100th Test, substituting him with lock Ruan Nortjé, and using André Esterhuizen as hybrid centre/flanker, but the Boks still went on to win 32-17.
