Great video but it really leaves out the most dramatic and exciting details of the match in Durban. The Boks were trailing 23-5 with 14 minutes remaining and scored 19 unanswered points with the last try coming on full time for the win. Additionally my boss at the time (I worked in a cocktail bar in Durban close to the stadium) was a Kiwi and went to the post-match function. He ended up chatting to James Dalton who, with great pride, told him he never grounded the ball. My Kiwi Boss was so pissed it was hilarious. I will never know if Dalton was telling the truth or just trying to wind up a Kiwi which is really his style.
If you look at the class of the opposition this was our best Bok season. Australia best team ever and AB were immense as well.
I couldn’t agree more with that.

Nick Mallett's 'Boks 97-98 were one of the best teams ever.
Ja and then he dropped Teighman and stuffed up the team. Very unprofessional coach that cant work out how important a solid captain is
I've been looking for this. Thanks.
5:11 and in the end The Springboks put the pressure beyond doubt and they would go on to win their first ever Tri Nations Title
