Ahead of the Rugby World Cup final between England and South Africa, Chris Jones is joined by the man who lifted the trophy for the Springboks in 2007, former captain John Smit and their ex front-rower Hanyani Shimange to discuss how big an impact winning the trophy in Tokyo would have on the country. We find out why both feel it’d even top winning on home soil in 1995, the story behind current skipper Siya Kolisi, and how John narrowly avoided missing the semi-final.
