Get ready to journey through time as we lace up our boots and relive the electrifying path to glory at the 2007 Rugby World Cup, guided by none other than Springbok Team Manager Zola Yeye. Brace yourself for an immersive experience as Zola pulls back the curtain on the riveting tales that unfolded behind the scenes. Yeye dives headfirst into the heart of the matter, laying bare his challenging dynamics with coach, Jake White, and his pivotal role in the disciplinary hearings that surrounded legends like Francois Steyn and Schalk Burger. Prepare for a chuckle as Yeye spills the beans on the intriguing aftermath of the World Cup victory – from President Thabo Mbeki's astounded security detail to the playful admonishments from the president himself as he received the victorious players at his official residence. The anecdotes flow freely as Zola captures the essence of these moments with unparalleled authenticity.
