Two years out from the 2019 Rugby World Cup the Springboks were in tatters. They had suffered two 50-point hidings to New Zealand, including a record 57-0 annihilation as well as a 38-3 demolition job from Ireland, not to mention a first ever loss to Italy.

Enter Rassie Erasmus.

The new Springbok coach turned things around immediately and set about building a winning team with a winning culture. The rest is history. South Africa battled their way to the 2019 Rugby World Cup final before putting in their best performance in many a year to slay England 32-12 and win the Webb Ellis Cup for a third time.
In this video Peter looks back at a period that started in tumultuous fashion but ultimately ended in glorious triumph!

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.
