Unforgettable Springbok Moments With FC Smit

--:--
Brace yourself for an exciting journey back in time with Springbok flank FC Smit. In 1992 South Africa returned to international rugby. FC was one of the most exciting loose forwards in South African rugby at the time but he unfortunately missed out on selection for the first four Tests of the year. He was not to be denied in the year’s final Test against England at Twickenham. In this frank and open discussion, Smit shares what it was like to play for the Springboks, even though it was just one solitary Test match. FC also takes us behind the scenes and you’ll discover what it was really like being an amateur rugby player in those days. Smit shares the good, the bad and the funny with us in this captivating discussion.
