These Boks unapologetically represent the best of South Africa which is a tough, tough country

The Boks have won 42 of the 50 matches they’ve played in the Rugby World Cup, won each of the four finals they’ve played.

LEADER FOR THE AGES: South Africa's Siya Kolisi lifts the Webb Ellis Cup with team-mates following victory in the Rugby World Cup 2023 final against the All Blacks.

There is no disputing the numbers when it comes to Rugby World Cups – the pinnacle of the sport. The Springboks have no peers.

They proved that with their fourth world title in only their eighth appearance at the tournament, having missed the first two when the country was still banned from international sport.
