Zinzan tells some behind-the-scenes stories about the 1995 World Cup in South Africa. Matt Burke talks about the injury situation in the Wallabies team and whether Matt Giteau will step in to help out against their quarter-final opponents, the Springboks. You can still watch Zinzan talk about how the Springboks weren’t the best side when they won the 1995 and 2007 World Cups.
Month: September 2011
The Boks won a close physical contest 13 – 5 against the Samoans to advance to the quarter-finals and a probable match against Australia.
15 Patrick Lambie – 7
Fearless under the high ball, made a try saving one-on-one tackle and regularly joined the line at pace. Excellent game from the 20 year old.
by Thomas Rooney South Africa assistant coach Dick Muir has claimed that there is no chance that the World Champions will be taking Samoa lightly tomorrow when the two teams meet in their latest World Cup match.
Will Carling, Zinzan Brooke, Matt Burke and Scott Quinnell discuss the Ireland victory over Australia, drinking between games and Zinzan comes up with another pearler: “I want New Zealand to lose”. This after stating that South Africa were not the best team at the 1995 and 2007 World Cups in the previous episode (View that one HERE).
