Rupeni Caucaunibuca – The Fijian Flyer

I’ll say it. In terms of skill, Rupeni Caucaunibuca is one of the 5 greatest wings of all time. He had everything – tremendouse speed, a great step and immense power. He is an enigma and I’m sure, looking back at his career, he has some regrets, but for a brief period of time, he […]

Serge Blanco – French Flair

Serge Blanco was one of the greatest rugby players ever. He always seemed to be in the right place and the ball always bounced right for him, but that was his genius. A master of the chip and chase, solid on defense and with an all round good kicking game. He was the complete rugby […]

Sonny Bill Williams – Midfield Maestro

Sonny Bill Williams will be remembered as one of the most creative and destructive midfielders to ever play for the All Blacks. He had amazing hands and an eye for the gap. Unfortunately he had to battle with Ma’a Nonu for the All Blacks’ no. 12 jersey. If it wasn’t for Nonu’s brilliance, Williams would […]

South African Rugby Goes Pro – Louis Luyt Interview 1995

In 1995 there was a global fight for rugby and luckily the Unions won the fight. Doc Craven always said that professionalism would ruin the game.
