Keep the RWC gees alive and stream highlights, doccies and more

It’s a day that’s written in history. Saturday, 2 November, the day the Boks lifted the William Webb Ellis trophy for a third time, equally the All Blacks’ record and creating a new record as the only team never to lose a World Cup final.

Plenty has already been written about the match – about coach Rassie Erasmus’s response to the question about the pressure faced by the team, about captain Siya Kolisi’s acceptance speech, about the tries by Cheslin Kolbe and Makazole Mapimpi, about Faf meeting Prince Harry in that SA-flag-patterned speedo.

But if you want to relive it over and over – and who doesn’t – here are some great highlights, documentaries and even a brilliant local series to binge that’ll help you keep the smile on your face for weeks to come.

This drama series from Mzansi Magic is about two archrivals, Monwabisi and Asanda, who both hail from a small town in the Eastern Cape and whose families are embroiled in a bitter feud. When the boys compete for a rugby scholarship to attend a prominent private high school in Johannesburg, they have no idea how the game and the school will change their lives. We can’t help but compare their journeys to the incredible real-life stories of how Mapimpi and Siya got to where they are today. The whole of Season 1 is available on Showmax.
