This is rugby like never before.

It was 15 October 2023 when Rugby World Cup hosts France and reigning champions South Africa went to battle in one of the most ferocious matches played in history, in front of a braying French crowd, hungry for blood and fire. With the poster boy of the rugby world Antoine Dupont at the helm, France entered their home tournament with high hopes of upsetting the apple cart and securing a first World Cup title for a Northern Hemisphere side since 2003. The indomitable Springboks, however, had mastermind Rassie Erasmus playing puppet master in the shadows - what had he cooked up for Les Bleus? Tune in for the cinematic clash between two rugby superpowers that delivered all the drama and all the physicality you could ever hope to witness. Featuring Murray Kinsella, Bernard Jackman, Rupert Cox, Daniel Gallan and Johnnie Beattie. 

The greatest rugby matches throughout history, remixed and remastered for your viewing pleasure - welcome to Tests of Time. #RugbyWorldCup #Springboks #LesBleus #FranceRugby #RugbyPass #rugbyhighlights
