"I am glad the review process is done and want to thank the Exco (Executive Committee) for reaffirming their support in me as Springbok coach," Coetzee said in statement from SA Rugby. SA Rugby have retained Coetzee despite the side winning only four of their 12 tests in 2016, his first season at the helm of the team. The Boks are next in action in June when they host France for three test matches at home.
