Ever since the springboks won the Rugby World Cup in 1995, South Africans have been passionate about the tournament that is the pinnacle of sporting achievement.

Nick Mallett, who coached the Boks at the 1999 World Cup, has become a household name for his incisive and forthright commentary and analysis. Join him as he takes you into the beating heart of the tournament, which kicks off in Paris in September. He tackles the following key questions:

- How strong are the Boks going into the RWC?

- Who are the favourites to win, and why?

- How does one 'play' the referee - both on and off the field?

- What are playing conditions like in France, where Mallett coached for a decade?

- Can Rassie Erasmus do it again and pull off a double win?

Filled with keen insights, opinions and anecdotes of games past, this is a book every fan should read.
