Here's the final instalment of Jean De Villiers' inspirational Road to Recovery doc

‘People are saying it’s this massive high mountain. Then you go through it and for me it’s a kind of a biggish little hill.’

JEAN DE VILLIERS thought his career was over when he injured his ACL in the November Test meeting with Wales last year.

Today, the former Munster centre is leading South Africa into his third Rugby World Cup. And if he can bring the ‘Boks as far as the final, he could bow out of Test rugby at 34 with 114 caps to his name.

In July, we brought you the first two instalments of DeVilliers’ harrowing yet inspirational road to recovery. Here, thanks to Shoestring Productions, is part three of the centre’s gruelling road to the Rugby World Cup.
