In a very special interview, Springboks legend John Smit joins Lachlan Waugh on the DSPN, in between the two All Blacks-South Africa rugby tests. Smit talks about both teams and where they're at, the Springboks constant rotation under coach Rassie Erasmus, and whether or not that could be detrimental to their 2027 World Cup build-up. Smit also touches on his own illustrious career - including his 2007 World Cup win, whitewashing the All Blacks 3-0 in 2009, and playing both hooker and tighthead prop at a high level.
