Kobus Wiese: Springboks career & 1995 Rugby World Cup winner
In this episode of Front Row Rugby Springboks legend Kobus Wiese discusses his incredibly successful rugby career. From his debut in 1993 against France, Wiese became a household name as a powerhouse lock forward and helped the Springboks win the 1995 Rugby World Cup. Here he talks about that tournament and challenging the All Blacks and their haka before the final in 95. Kobus also experienced tremendous domestic success with Transvaal where he won the Currie Cup, Lion Cup and Super 10 titles. Also known for his sense of humour, he always enjoys a good laugh and tells us more here about a famous prank he pulled while in camp with the Boks.

Peter says: I love the Springboks and rugby is one of my favourite sports. Although as a sports journalist I am supposed to remain neutral, I always like to point out that before I became a professional, I was just a big fan! I hold a Masters Degree in International Journalism so at least you know I should be able to ask a good question or two! My dream is to do this YouTube Channel permanently.
