That grows them as a player.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Vermeulen, man-of-the-match when the Boks beat England to win the 2019 World Cup final, described watching the 13-8 defeat by the Irish from the coaches&#8217; box as &#8220;crazy&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It was nice to be up there, but it&#8217;s also daunting to be up there. I actually enjoyed it, it was good fun,&#8221; said the 37-year-old.<\/p>\n<p>The robust backrow forward said the mingling between coaches and players offered &#8220;a nice dynamic&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We learn a little bit, but they also see how we might think about the game.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>But Vermeulen, who has played club rugby for Toulon, Kubota Spears and Ulster, outside South Africa, added: &#8220;I would definitely love to be on the pitch, that&#8217;s the most important thing, that&#8217;s what it&#8217;s all about.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The worst thing was just sitting there and you can&#8217;t do anything. When you&#8217;re on the pitch you&#8217;re still part of the game, you can still make a change or change the outcome of the game.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;At the top, you give the players the info and what you want and what you see, then it&#8217;s up to the guys on the field.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I would still prefer to be on the pitch as much as I can!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b>Wealth of knowledge<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Nienaber said Vermeulen&#8217;s role within the squad offered up a great degree of versatility, comparing him to former Bok flanker Francois Louw.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Duane&#8217;s role, if you look back to 2019, the best way to describe it is a Francois Louw role,&#8221; the coach said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He&#8217;s a guy that can start, that can play a Test match for you, but he&#8217;s also a guy that&#8217;s got a lot of experience and he adds his wealth of knowledge into the group.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Not saying that he can&#8217;t start. Look at Francois Louw, the contribution he made in that semi-final (in 2019) for us, to get a penalty in the 76th minute.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Big moments, big roles, been there before &#8211; Vermeulen&#8217;s probably in that mould, but if there&#8217;s an injury and he has to start and play the whole game, he&#8217;s more than fit and good enough to do that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Nienaber was reticent to comment on a possible move into coaching for Vermeulen.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I can&#8217;t say if he&#8217;s preparing for the future,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>But Vermeulen hinted that he would be interested, although stressing that his playing days were not yet up.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Two years ago, I probably would have said no,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When you finish, you think like you want to give back to the younger guys.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If the opportunity arises and there&#8217;s a possibility, I would love to stay in the game and help the younger guys. I love this game and it&#8217;s difficult to step away once you&#8217;ve been in this long: 19 years playing as a professional.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s been a good run and it&#8217;s not the end yet. Hopefully there&#8217;s more to come.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Vermeulen dons the seven shirt for South Africa&#8217;s must-win match against Tonga on Sunday, but insisted the number was irrelevant.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m part of loose trio,&#8221; he said. &#8220;It&#8217;s not a big shift, just a change of number.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b>CHECK OUT<\/b> | News24&#8217;s Rugby World Cup Zone<\/p>\n<p>Assistant Springbok coach Mzwandile Stick said the team was under no illusion of the importance of beating the Tongans with an attacking bonus point.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If we don&#8217;t win, there are no play-offs for us,&#8221; said Stick.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If we can just make sure we win the game first, I think then destiny will be in our hands and it would be great if things go well for us to get maximum points.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/south-africa\">South-Africa<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; South-Africa.
