    Epitome of Sport Documentaries

    I started watching this with no expectations, and having seen no trailers or promo content. A few minutes into the first episode, I could feel a lump in my throat starting to form. Throughout the series - which i binged watched in one afternoon, its that good - there was never a dull or boring moment. By the last episode I was in tears, overwhelmed by joy, and sorrow and hope. It takes a special production crew to make something as provoking as this.

    Even if you are not into Rugby, this documentary delves deep into some individual Springbok's stories, which serve to remind us all where we come from, where we are, and where we could be, if we worked together. There are lessons for all South Africans in this documentary.

    Incredible

    Best sports documentary I have seen. Such a feel good series, especially as a proud South African.

    Winning isn't everything, it's the only thing

    I'm a proud Scot and passionate supporter of Scotland's rugby team (and the British & Irish Lions!!), but I can honestly say that I have a deep, deep respect and admiration for the South African team having watched this documentary.

    Over and above the superb production values of the documentary, to see and gain a little more understanding of where this team (players, management and support staff) comes from is truly inspiring. It's a fascinating, heartfelt watch that brings a tear to the eye whilst uplifting the soul.

    I know what South Africa is like having travelled and lived there a few years back and this gives me more hope than anything else that there's a better future ahead than what appears in the news sections. It's even more inspiring to see the build up to the RWC2019 victory when offered a peak behind at the people involved.

    This is one of the best sports documentaries ever - it's powerful and rewarding.
