The England Legends' team will be led by former captain and British and Irish Lion Martin Corry, and will include several members of the 2003 World Cup winning team.

England's most-capped player, Jason Leonard, will return to his former home ground, to take part. Other heroes of 2003 include Jason Robinson, Paul Grayson, Mark Regan and Josh Lewsey. They'll be joined by other recent internationals: Richard Cockerill, Tim Stimpson, Matt Perry, Gareth Archer, Dan Luger and Ben Clarke.

The South African Rugby Legends will be led by John Allan, the ex Scottish and Springbok hooker and their Coach (former Sharks and Springbok Coach) Ian McIntosh.

Ten pounds buys you a boerewors roll and Windhoek Lager, as well as an opportunity to view the game on screen if you were unable to get your hands on a ticket.

South African and England legends will also be in attendance at the event.

There is also a Springbok Legends Dinner at the Shaka Zulu Restaurant on 24 November.
