I do not want to say much about the newspaper article, except that it contains many untruths and half-truths.

We’d love to be able to assess him in comparison to other flyhalves, but unfortunately we couldn’t do road maps (on his progress) because we haven’t seen him play. I have no doubt this decision will benefit me personally, my rugby career, my family, and SA’s faithful rugby supporters. She is a good friend and nothing more.

There should be intervention and there should be support. “Jantjies has not officially been tested positive for anything and faces no ban from the sport. “Recreational drug use is a reality in life and elite sports people are a part of this life.
