President Cyril Ramaphosa says he will support the Springboks on behalf of the 57 million South Africans to give them “woema” for the Rugby World Cup final.
Ramaphosa was speaking yesterday just before he boarded a plane to Japan.
The Springboks also shared their final team photo on social media this morning and say they are stronger when they stand together.
The President says he expects the Webb Ellis trophy to come “home” where it belongs
Go bokke!
