The Springboks’ recent stumble has us asking the question no other pod dares: did they get in their own heads? Episode 103 of The Lekker Rugby Pod dives into the Boks’ mindset, leadership, and selection choices, blending sharp rugby analysis with our signature humour. Harry checks in from Cape Town after swimming, hiking, and a pilgrimage up Table Mountain — possibly to exorcise some post-mortem demons — while MW presses him on what he saw inside the Stormers’ high-performance centre in Bellville, where John Dobson and Duncan Cruikshank are turning players into rugby brainiacs.We cover everything from Siya Kolisi’s leadership, injury management, and team selection drama, to the cultural quirks of Pretoria, Johannesburg, and Cape Town stadiums. Body language, captain’s runs, and subtle signs of self-doubt are unpacked, along with a cheeky nod to Rassie’s Zombie anthem echoing in the squad’s psyche. Funny, fearless, and deeper than any rugby podcast out there, this is The Lekker Rugby Pod — the only pod brave enough to go inside the heads of the Springboks.
