The second Chasing the Sun documentary will chronicle the Springboks' run to their second straight World Cup title in France last year.

The Boks will have a chance to get a bit of revenge against the Irish when they welcome them to the country for a two Test series in July.

“That’s something that I haven’t really thought about, but I heard Damian Willemse say earlier that the week after the Ireland game changed the World Cup for us and I have to agree,” said Etzebeth. The Boks will now have a chance to get a bit of revenge against the Irish when they welcome them to the country for a two Test series in July, where they will be hoping to break a three-game losing run against them that stretches back to 2016.“We are well aware Ireland are a proper Test team. They are one of the best teams in the world. They have been performing really well in the Six Nations and we haven’t beaten them since 2016,” said Etzebeth.
