Burglars broke into the offices of the South African Rugby Union, stealing signed shirts, laptops, and whisky but leaving the William Webb Ellis Cup untouched. This comes after a female fan died during the Trophy Tour in East London. The Sharks coach expressed concerns about Bongi Mbonambi's injury sustained in the World Cup final, fearing it could rule him out for the rest of the season. Another Springboks player, Vincent Koch, also faces a lengthy spell out due to a knee injury.
A huge blow for Bongi Mbonambi & the Sharks who will also be without fellow World Cup winner Vincent Koch for the next 3 months of the season due to injury. We wish both players a full recovery 🙏🏻 https://t.co/VUGzK409EV
