Boks ready to avenge 1996 All Blacks series defeat: Teichmann
1996 Springbok captain Gary Teichman believes the current squad is in best condition possible to avenge his team’s series defeat against the All Blacks 30 years ago.
Teichman and his opposite captain from that historic loss, New Zealand’s Sean Fitzpatrick unveiled the new trophy at stake for the upcoming Greatest Rivalry tests.
The trophy is a world first made of by two halves and drawn together by magnetism.
Its aim is to capture the unique bond between the Springboks and All Blacks, where the rivalry has become a binding factor and Teichman says it was the same when he played.
