It’s finally time for a rematch.

Back in 1995 the All Blacks faced South Africa in the Rugby World Cup Final and will be doing the same this Sunday morning.

Hennie Le Roux was a member of the Springboks when they took the cup in ‘95 and told Kate Hawkesby that they’re preparing themselves for an enormous battle this time.

He said that New Zealand has shown that they’re a power to reckon with and are probably consistently the best team in the world over a long period of time.

Le Roux said that if the Springboks are going to lose, they’d rather lose to New Zealand than anyone else.
