RWC Final: New Zealand And South Africa Battle For Global Supremacy

Hear from Portlaoise and Tullamore Rugby Clubs ahead of Saturday's decider.

Both New Zealand and South Africa have three Webb Ellis trophies each ahead of tomorrow's decider.

South African, Darin Classin, is the head coach of the Tullamore men's team, he tells David Hollywood he's nabbed a ticket to tomorrow's final, and says the Springboks will relish taking on familiar foes:

Kick off at the Stade de France is set for 8pm tomorrow evening.

While England and Argentina contest the bronze medal match at the World Cup from 8pm in Paris tonight.
