Allister Coetzee walked away with at least R1.8-million after being sacked as Springbok coach.

Coetzee was fired just two years into his four-year contract after winning just 11 of 25 Tests.

According to Rapport, SA Rugby paid Coetzee a severance package worth six months’ salary.

Coetzee is reportedly set to join Japanese club, the Canon Eagles, later in the week.
