Jurie Roux, CEO of South African rugby: “World Rugby ran an exhaustive and transparent process for 15 months to identify the best host nation, only for the process to go entirely opaque for the past two weeks.” SA accept defeat though #RWC2023

Very disappointment but very proud of the effort that went in to #ireland2023. We left nothing on the pitch! 🤷🏻‍♂️

It’s been a dark 24 hours for Irish sport. The pubs will be busy tonight.
