The Springboks secured another historic Rugby World Cup title last October, with their journey to glory once again uniting South Africa behind a common cause, with the subsequent trophy tour across the country also serving as a stark reminder about the power of sport as fans from all walks of life came out in their thousands to show their support for the team.
