Resumen del Editor

When Rassie Erasmus took over as coach of the Springboks in 2018, few thought they had a chance of winning the Rugby World Cup. The Boks had slipped to seventh in the world rankings and lost the faith of the rugby-loving public. Less than two years later, jubilant crowds lined the streets of South Africa’s cities to welcome back the victorious team.

Sportswriter Lloyd Burnard takes the listener on the thrilling journey of a team that went from no-hopers to world champions. He examines how exactly this turnaround was achieved. Interviews with players, coaches and support staff reveal how the principles of inclusion, openness and focus, as well as careful planning and superb physical conditioning, became the basis for a winning formula. The key roles played by Rassie Erasmus and Siya Kolisi shine through.

There were ups and downs along the way: beating the All Blacks in Wellington during the Rugby Championship was a high point, but then came Kolisi’s injury, while in Japan the distractions of a volatile support base sometimes shook the players’ focus. Miracle Men is filled with marvellous anecdotes and sharp insights. It is also inspiring testimony to what can be achieved when a group of South Africans from all backgrounds come together as a team.

Biased review

Biased review for sure. A great story well told. Nothing revolutionary revealed in the book. The TV documentary "Chasing the Sun" pretty much covered the same material. A few minor factual inaccuracies but nothing too major. Captured the story and essence of the Rugby World Cup 2019 very well.

Go Bokke

Really great analysis of the Springboks rise from mediocrity to become 2019 Rugby World Cup Champions is an interesting read, and the narration by Rory Burnell really adds to this great story of Rassie Erasmus and his genius in leading South Africa to claim the holy grail of world rugby. Great book for the rugby geek in your life.

Great insight

Easy read if guys are a South African or rugby fan looking to learn about the ins and outs of winning a world cup. A lot of interesting antidotes that are not widely known about the much documented triumph.
