Ireland forwards coach Paul O’Connell praised former Springbok coach Jacques Nienaber's work with Irish players.

Nienaber was head coach when the Boks won Rugby World Cup 2023 and has since joined Leinster where his work has been roundly applauded, even though the club came up short of silverware this season.
