5. Food poisoning All Blacks
A former top South African police commander involved with All Blacks security at the 1995 Rugby World Cup says the team was deliberately poisoned before the final against the Springboks.
Rory Steyn – chief bodyguard to President Nelson Mandela – believes betting syndicates were behind the poisoning. The All Blacks lost the Johannesburg final 15-12.
This is a rugby conspiracy theory that will go on for the rest of time.
