| book description |
No man has led the Springbok rugby team onto the field as many times as Gary Teichmann, and no man has inspired the Springboks to more successive Test victories. The record stands. Now Teichmann, the tall eighthman whose dignity and decency have earned him the respect and admiration across the rugby world, writes for the record. Here he records the 17 successive Test victories achieved by his Springboks in 1997 and 1998, equalling the All Blacks feat of the 1960s. He outlines all the circumstances of his controversial omission from the Springbok squad for the 1999 Rugby World Cup. He writes of his tenure at the helm of South Africa’s team of the 1990s, the Natal Sharks; of the people and pride at King’s Park. At all times, in triumph and disappointment, Teichmann has kept his head above the storm, maintaining his personal dignity through the disasters of defeat against the Lions and the triumph of the 1998 Tri-Nations. His tale is honest and revealing: the story of a leader, the story of a man who never lost sight of his goals, and never forgot that the only lasting path to glory is the path of honesty.
