Unraveling the Springboks' Historic Victory: Twice The Glory by Lloyd Burnard and Khanyiso Tshwaku

🏉 New Episode Alert! 🎙️ On this episode of Pagecast, sports broadcaster Cato Louw chats with authors Lloyd Burnard and Khanyiso Tshwaku about Twice the Glory—the definitive account of the Springboks' epic journey to becoming four-time Rugby World Cup champions.

"You only need to win a game by one point." – These words from Jacques Nienaber after South Africa’s 2023 RWC opener against Scotland became the defining mantra of a tournament filled with nail-biting drama.

From the lows of 2017, when the Boks were overpowered by Ireland, to the incredible rise under Nienaber and Rassie Erasmus, Twice the Glory takes you inside the squad’s most intense moments—Covid disruptions, Siya Kolisi’s leadership, tactical masterstrokes, injuries, and the unforgettable final in the Stade de France.

Relive the journey. Feel the tension. Celebrate the triumph. 🏆🇿🇦
