This week in NZ Sporting history we go back to 1995 when a 36 strong All Black team is in South Africa for the World Cup. It was the first major sporting event in the country since the end of apartheid. Nelson Mandela was president.
But things didn't goes as planned for planned for the All Blacks...nothing like it had happened before, and nothing has happened since.
To talk us through the bizarre events of the final, rugby legend Laurie Mains, who was coaching that side, talks to Jesse.
