Eben Etzebeth opens up in his memoir
In October, the Springboks powerhouse released his tell-all memoir, Unlocked, offering fans a glimpse into his rugby journey and personal challenges. Eben addressed the 2019 Langebaan brawl allegations, reflected on tough losses against the All Blacks, and even revealed his childhood dream of joining WWE.
He also shared how former Springboks coach Heyneke Meyer’s sudden withdrawal from his role mid-tour shaped his outlook on leadership and resilience in the sport.
