Defiant White hits back at Boks critics

JAKE WHITE has vowed to stand firm against his critics after South Africa’s most powerful rugby province called for his resignation as Springbok coach.

White has come under increasing pressure in the wake of poor recent performances, resulting in the Blue Bulls’ call for White to stand down, a demand that has since been supported by two more provincial unions, Western Province Rugby Union and Valke Rugby Union.

The Boks have lost five games in a row away from home this year under White and won only four out of 10 in a disappointing season that included home losses against France and the All Blacks.
