Some rugby moments stay with you forever, and this was one of them.
Huw Griffin never expected to be so close to history. Representing Megafoon Rugby alongside Harry Jones from the Lekker Rugby Pod, he stepped into the roar of Twickenham — a sea of green and gold Springbok supporters, cameras flashing, and the electricity of a crowd fully alive. But nothing prepared him for the moment he met Siya Kolisi. The Springbok captain’s warmth, humility, and presence left Huw completely awestruck — a moment he and viewers will never forget.
In this episode, Huw shares the full experience: from navigating the chaos of the media centre, capturing the post-match celebrations, and feeling the pride of South African rugby in every corner of the stadium. MW Welman joins to unpack the significance of the day, reflecting on how moments like these bring fans, journalists, and players closer together.
Beyond the handshake and surprise, they talk about the energy of the Springbok supporters, the atmosphere of Twickenham, and what it means to experience rugby at its highest level. You’ll hear stories about the vicarious thrill of living it through Huw’s eyes, the behind-the-scenes insights of covering an international test, and the emotions that come with being part of something bigger than yourself.
This episode is more than rugby analysis — it’s a story about pride, awe, and human connection. It’s a moment that reminds us why we love the game, why we celebrate its heroes, and why stories like this stay with us long after the final whistle.
