Bobo on Bok history, future and a Perth win

Loading player...

Our hosts this week corner former Bok centre and television pundit Gcobani Bobo. They look ahead to this weekend's Rugby Championship Test between the Springboks and the Wallabies in Perth. Bobo is thoroughly enthused by the much-changed Bok line-up, arguing the World Champions now boast depth that other teams cannot match.

Bobo is also pushed down memory lane about his time Perth, the city where he regrettably, never played a Test.
