Rating The Springboks' Excellent 2024

Loading player...
2024 will go down as one of the most successful years in the history of Springbok rugby. South Africa came into the year as the world champions and subsequently won the Rugby Championship, Mandela Plate, Freedom Cup, Qatar Airways cup, went unbeaten on an end-of-year tour for the first time since 2013 and finished the year as the world number one team. Further to that the Boks dominated the World Rugby Dream Team of the year with seven players in that side plus Pieter-Steph Du Toit won the Player of the year Award.

In this episode Peter will take you on a rollercoaster adventure looking back at a memorable year for the Springboks.
