The state of South Africa has become somewhat hopeless, according to Stephen Grootes.
He shares his wishes for the country, one of which is to have us host the 2023 Rugby World Cup.
Remember the Football World Cup? Remember how it felt to host the world? We as South Africans, we were united and together and special. That was only seven years ago, President Jacob Zuma had been president for a year and we still had hope that our lives were going to get better.

We don't feel like that anymore, I think we feel almost hopeless for our present and our future and it really shows you how we are at a crossroads as a country.
— Stephen Grootes, 702 anchor
I hope that we get the Rugby World Cup in 2023. That we pick a road that gives us back that hope.
