30 years ago the All Blacks won their first test series on South
African soil. Andy Rowe sits down with two men who were there:
Frank Bunce and Justin Marshall. They relive the 1992 return tour
after apartheid, the intimidation of Ellis Park, Jonah Lomu's 1995
World Cup, and the week in Pretoria where Sean Fitzpatrick told the
team: "There's no way we're going to Ellis Park with the series on
the line." Plus: the Michael Brial fight, the famous "too old, too
slow, two tries" headline, Bunce's legendary partnership with
Walter Little, why the All Blacks haven't settled a midfield since
Ma'a Nonu and Conrad Smith, and whether this All Blacks side can
win the series again. Subscribe for weekly rugby chat from Justin
