LISTEN: Is Pollard the Bok silver bullet & please lay off Libbok?

In this week's edition of Talking Point, the panel discuss the return of Handre Pollard and what to make of the Springboks' World Cup form.


It’s week four of the Rugby World Cup in France – A week in which quite a significant number of the pools will be settled.

The Springboks have their fate in their own hands – although it was probably never really in doubt – when they face Tonga in Marseille this weekend.

There were very few excuses from the Bok management barring their ongoing goal-kicking dilemma after their narrow low-scoring defeat by Ireland last week.

Join host Trevor Cramer and Head of Citizen Sport Jacques van der Westhuyzen as they share the pros and cons – yes there are a few – of Handre Pollard’s selection at flyhalf, unpack the latest Bok line-up, what could Tonga potentially bring to the table and the current state of play in the tournament.

Does Manie Libbok deserve the grossly unfair criticism levelled at him on social media and going forward, could he suffer a personal confidence crisis? And…what’s up with Aussie and All Black rugby?

Plus…the weekly FLOP and GOLD STAR of the week feature and more.
