  • Unappreciated Achiever: Springbok Coach Heyneke Meyer’s Story

    Unappreciated Achiever: Springbok Coach Heyneke Meyer’s Story
    Jul 29 2024
    After missing out on the Springbok coaching job in 2008, Heyneke Meyer fulfilled a lifelong ambition of becoming the Bok boss four years later. In this fascinating discussion Meyer opens up about what really happened during an exciting period in South African rugby. Heyneke led the Springboks to consecutive unbeaten end-of-year tours – something not achieved since 1996/97 and not again since. Meyer also led the Boks to record wins over Argentina and Australia but fell short against an all-powerful All Blacks side. In this video he explains why that was the case. Unfortunately, Heyneke also came under pressure for a first-ever defeat to Japan but here he sheds light on what really happened behind the scenes. Perhaps in years to come he will be appreciated for overseeing a relatively successful period in Bok rugby. And maybe this video can go some way towards helping give Meyer the credit he deserves.

  • Nerves Of Steel: Louis Koen's Springbok Story

    Nerves Of Steel: Louis Koen's Springbok Story
    Jul 22 2024
    Louis Koen was one of the most accurate goalkickers in South African rugby in the late 90s but he had to wait until 2000 for his first Springbok Test cap. And then after just one appearance he was out of the picture for nearly 18 months before another short stint. Finally in 2003 he was given his due and played in most of the Tests as South Africa prepared for the World Cup and then took on the world in Australia later that year with Louis as the Springbok 10. Koen was a solid and reliable performer with a deadly accurate boot. In this candid discussion he discusses the highs and lows of his Bok career. From his nerves-of-steel last minute winning penalty against Argentina to the disappointment of a World Cup quarter-final exit, and everything in between, Louis shares it all here in this exclusive Front Row Rugby interview.
