The SAPeople website takes a look at what has happened to the heroic starting Springbok XV that memorable day at Ellis Park in Johannesburg, and here we pay tribute to lock Kobus Wiese, a who was somewhat of a cult hero among local fans.
RUGBY WORLD CUP WINNER KOBUS WIESE (LOCK)
Wiese enjoyed an 18-Test Springbok career, which includes the triumphant RWC campaign in 1995 and concluded a year later in December of 1996 in a clash against Wales at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff.
His provincial laying career only extended two years beyond his international playing days, with Wiese bowing out from an illustrious career in 1998.
Post-retirement, the Rugby World Cup winner ventured into the restaurant trade and founded Wiesenhof Coffees and Dulce Café. Combined, his businesses have 90 stores nationwide.
Not willing to leave the sport he loves entirely, Wiese moved into rugby commentary and is well known as a SuperSport commentator and host of the Afrikaans show SuperRugby.
Wiese also does public speaking and motivational talks at corporations and schools.
