Eben Etzebeth

The Springboks ended their 2025 season with a record-breaking 73-0 victory over Wales in Cardiff, scoring 11 tries to cap an unbeaten end-of-year tour. However, lock Eben Etzebeth's late red card for eye gouging overshadowed the dominant performance. The win matched the Boks' all-time try record of 81 in a season, achieved in fewer matches than the 2007 team.
