Springbok legend Bryan Habana joins Christina and Jamie Roberts this week to preview the upcoming Lions Tour. Bryan tells us which Lion player he would swap into the Springboks and who South Africans would be most intimated by in the Lions squad. Bryan names his starting XV for the first test for SA - both him and Jamie make their predictions - discuss how the coin toss in the first test in 2009 spooked Paul O’Connell and the lions and gave SA the psychological Edge – explain how the brutal physicality of the games and rivalry meant the teams never socialised with each other, which both Jamie and Bryan massively regret. We also hear the real story about Bryan being terrified of racing that cheetah, his top 3 players he faced and much more. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
