News24 | PODCAST | The Lead: Protea fire blazes bright, the Boks’ amazing year and Afcon loading

News24 Sport editor Lloyd Burnard reckons the Protea women's Laura Wolvaardt, her team and the men's side deserve SA's sporting flowers this year.

When, eventually, we peer back at the annals of South African sport in 2025, cricket will come out tops.

That’s the argument from our News24 Sport editor, Lloyd Burnard, who believes the Proteas’ fire is blazing bright for both the men’s and women’s sides.

Burnard joined The Lead in our new Cape Town studios to reflect on the sporting year that was, not just on the oval, but out on the pitch and field, too.
