Springboks Lead, All Blacks Follow: Scott Robertson’s Bold Plan

Loading player...
All Blacks coach Scott Robertson has shocked the world by announcing he is going to ask his bosses to copy the Rugby World Cup champions South Africa's recipe for success. The Springboks select overseas-based players in a sport where many countries only choose domestic-based players. This strategy has proved very successful for the Boks, who have won the last two Rugby World Cup titles. They say imitation is the best form of flattery and in this episode, Peter looks at what the Kiwis are planning to do next and explains why the Springboks approach is undoubtedly the way to go.
