Witness the rise of our Springbok Women, with Lloyd Burnard

South Africa’s Springbok Women celebrated this weekend like never before with a truly historic win: their first triumph over Italy and their very first time reaching the Women’s Rugby World Cup quarterfinals, currently under way in England. It all came down to the wire with a nail-biting 29-24 victory over the Italians in the city of York on Sunday. The Springbok Women have come a long way since their debut in 2004 and the first World Cup in 2006. Joining The Lead to reflect on their biggest success in 21 years is News24 Sport editor Lloyd Burnard. Later in the show: Pay back the money! Shula Developers returns an irregular payment of millions to the state pensions admin agency. Also, Netflix’s Wednesday season two has a new star: Gqeberha’s very own Luyanda Lewis-Nyawo. Finally, we end with ‘On This Day in History’, courtesy of SA History Online. You can send host Graeme Raubenheimer a voice note with your questions or thoughts on this episode to: +27 72 562 3179.
