Tim, as a Kiwi I love your podcast, it’s great to hear a different voice to what we hear here in NZ…..you are VERY balanced in your observations, it’s great!!!!
I think your boyys will take this one. You were unlucky last time, same as 2023, and we're overdue a hiding from the old enemy. Even though I'll probably regret saying this, it's great to see the men in black being led by an elite coach again. Robertson really does know what he's doing. The changes he's made for this test alone proves that.
Tim, as I much as I absolutely love what you do for rugby, holy smokes would I enjoy a travel show with you as the host. Enjoy SA, my man, and I can’t wait to see what you do for your next trip abroad.
Look, Tim. We can tell. I think it's high time you had a conversation with your family. Come on, buddy, we _know_ you want move here. We'd be happy to have you.
Rassie names early squad with a change later on. Media goes crazy. Rassie releases team the normal release date the media goes crazy. I absolutely love how deep he gets under the media's skin🫡
Man.. as a 100% Bok man, I have to say that I love and respect the All Blacks. They are the true measuring stick for the bokke and us for them. Tim, thanks for your insights as always bud
That last 25 minutes and injuries is the reason for this selection. They want to finish strong unlike last week. Good luck to them. Excited to see what Dr Rassie will do next.
Tim, you have only scratched the surface of what SA offers. Besides the spectacular vistas, the people are really the best. You will always feel very welcome by everyone. You still owe me a golf game! That would have been another experience. Playing at one of the best golf courses in SA (De Zalze) must be on your bucket list.
Mate, make sure you get out and do the Chapmans Peak Drive while you are there. I've only been to the Western Cape a handful of times in my life, but that always stands out to me as incredible.
I've been to Wellington to watch SA vs NZ in the Cake Tin (2014). Our tour package was a NZ tour in stead of a SA tour, but even so, the people in their black jerseys welcomed us with our green jerseys and were GREAT! I can wholeheartedly recommend you go there to watch a game next year!
I'm proud of south africa we need to embrace this greatness , it's a true gift to our country , a spark was made and now there is a fire , let's push hard and gain inspiration from this . Love this channel
Hey Tim,you must be careful...not long from now you live in Cape Town. Don't know if you've seen that when it's rugby season we have Bok Fridays. We wear our Springbok jerseys to work.
Be sure to take Clarence Drive back to Cape Town, probably one of the best scenic drives in the world. Ps looking forward to the Bokke team selection video. Great job as always
This is of topic, but you seem to appreciate our country and it's landscapes and the raw beauty... That's why I would recommend going a little bit North, to the Namakwaland. It's about 380km to see the most beautiful natural phenomenon called "blommetjie tyd", which meens flower time. Only once a year, when we get enough rain, most dry and barren places explodes with flowers as far as the eye can see. Orange, purple, white, yellow... You must see that sometime in your next visit 😁👍
The world is divided into Six (6) plant kingdoms - most of those plant kingdoms cover whole continents. A part of the Western Cape has its own plant kingdom - one of the six - the Fynbos - were you are sitting.
@@dawidmaree5002 the cheapest city on Earth is Pretoria and much less violent crime than CT. Kruger and bushveld in reach and the best weather on earth.
Fantastic Tim...Rugby fever in SA at the moment. An aside the Cape is a winter rainfall area so its green in Winter. KZN and the bush up North is paradise in Summer and plenty others. For what its worth, we are near 30⁰ in Pretoria today. Seasonal touring in SA changes the landscapes completely, all are beautiful. The Drakensberg and Mpumalanga will blow your mind in summer. The West coast is underrated with its arid beauty and vast spaces. Tropical to desert to cool wet Cape winters and green bushveld summers up North, it is all the World in one country... oh, and cheap as chips with fabulous people and an ardent rugby religion. Enjoy!
Glad to see you back to your normal chippa self mate 😎🤣 this is going to be an interesting one, I'm hoping Rassie is going to start Williams at 9 to counter Cortez with moodie on the wing and psdt at flank to flatten MacKenzie and barret when he's subed, Am at center and give Jessie a rest
Love to see you here in the western Cape Tim! Enjoy your time here. Really appreciate you and your channel. I agree about the AB selection! This is very intentional! They are definitely not lying down! 😮
Blackadder and Clarke both have minor injuries. TJ and BB are coming off the bench for experience to try and counter the bomb squad. Jordan swings between the wing and 15 when playing so it isn't a big adjustment, even though he has only started one international there - He has plenty of experience for the Crusaders at full-back.
yeah, Jordan was a fumbling mess when he switched to fb in the 2nd Argie match, though, hasn't been great lately, he's going to have to step up hugely.
I'd like to recommend starting a 2nd channel, for shorter videos, maybe with less planning or editing. Maybe even with more of a focus on travel. Travel snippets or little reactions. Bloopers. Just a thought, since you spend so much time travelling. With a rugby focus, maybe you sometimes don't get enough time to talk about the sights you've seen and the things you've experienced on all your journeys. And I particularly like these elements and the way you try to bring them into the rugby conversation. Just wonder if there is more that is left unsaid at times. Peace and love, thanks for all this top quality content.
As an ABs supporter, I think the changes are a good move, more outright attack in the back three and a faster halfback, and more experience coming off the bench to help close out games. On a side note, please do come out to NZ we would love to have you, maybe the return games against SA would be good timing with the pacific nations competition as well
Hey Tim, google Johnny Clegg and African Sky Blue, Great Heart, The Crossing, Asimbonanga or any of his songs. A lot of references to the african sky. Johnny Clegg was a SA songwriter, musician, anthropologist, and story teller. An exceptional South African. Rugby is going ro be good, a little surprised with the selections. Will Jordan very talented, looked a little rusty last week and his kicking will need to be on point.
Great channel Tim, well done. Really pleased Sititi is starting and finally we get WJ at fullback, he needs to get a decent run of games there, I hope Ruben Love at least gets on the bench during the Bledisloe. Ratima starting is a sign of the future and when Roigard is back I think we'll have plenty to build on at 9. Kiwis are hard taskmasters and a loss this weekend will see Razor really cop it but I always thought his first year was going to be really tough with this schedule. I'm optimistic we're on the right track, ABs forever.
Definitely. 2 away against the world champs is tough. Looking forward to seeing them in NZ next year. This looks like Robertson is using it as a chance to blood some young players against the best team in the world. Massive game for Wallace and Ratima. Vaai still seems a bit soft to be the starting lock. I think Darry would be better to start.
@@barneyboy2008 Agree better to start with Darry, I'm just wondering if they are giving Vaai the chance to really prove himself as a starter, he's been ok off the bench though. If the ABs can play a true 80 minutes this week they can win this I reckon.
Welcome to the Cape! Will look out for you at the stadium on Saturday. In the end, to get in, I had to purchase 2 season tickets + additional for this game - cost me an arm and a leg! Will be worth it 🎉
Great to see you Tim. I thought you were shellshocked not hangover 😂 (should’ve known better) Thank you for the team break down. Enjoy your time in CT😁
I toured NZ in '94 with the Boks, loved it, especially the South Island, even they will tell you they are better people than the North Islanders. Rural vs Urban.
Great video again, Tim. Razor probably hoping to have a lead going into the last 20 again, then having TJ and Beauden close the game out. Looking forward to this game. Going to be epic!
Tim Capetonian here....if you like the Western Cape so much you are going to LOVE NZ and its people(although i have a slightly diminished view of the people of late now that i have followed their reactions as recent "losers"). NZ has to be the most beautiful country in the world...especially the south island. I spent 8 weeks there in 2011 so was priviledged to immerse myself into the way of life for a unique exposure of all things NZ. You have to make a lengthy visit your priority.
NZ has been ruined by all the immigrants. Best to stay away. Try visiting CapeTown where you'll spend most of your time looking over your shoulder like I did.
Tim are you at Arrabella Golf Course. If so could you make the stroke one in 2 shots ? NZ bench looks more dynamic. Weather Saturday 16 °C, wind SSE 24, no rain. Ref Matt Carley, also match at Twickenham. When NZ were early under heavy presure they resorted to their traditional cheating rugby. Inspite of warnings they continued and Sam Cane yellow card. Later Scott Barrett red. Doubt if NZ will again score 4 tries v Bokke. Prediction nobody really knowns.
You are one of the best rugby pundits, serving this great game. Thank you for your balanced and unemotional commentary. The NZ lot, by contrast, are contaminating the game and rugby world opinion about NZ in general.
Even as a highveld oke I have to admit, the Cape is just beautiful. I don't think people that haven't been there realises it, it is just pretty and the entire province is just the same.
I'll never forget my first festival, street parade in Auckland, the highlight was a phalanx of Masport lawn mowers. I was totally confused, I thought their sheep did that job.
Hi Tim I've been following u and ur content since last year . I love the show and a huge fan. Just wanna give you a shout out keo and zels also mentioned u great stuff ❤️🙏
I like this line-up! I reckon this is Razor going with his personal instinct to do the opposite of Rassie and play specialists in their positions. The only exception here is Sititi, who’s been playing more 8, but he is the ball-carrier they need. Barrett is more valuable off the bench than starting, I think he should own that role. Really looking forward to it. And come to the South Pacific! Fiji for a Drua match would be wild. Maybe Eden Park, then visit some of the rugby heartlands like Taranaki, Canterbury…
Thats right. The first game showed this team will be great in a couple years. I thought Narawa style of play would be perfect against the Boks unless he's unwanted or injured. I sense an upset finally happened this weekend.
World player of the year on two occasions at 10. Should never have been changed. Crusader influence to make way for Mounga. Mounga should of served his time as 2ic as Beaudie did for Carter. Did the same with Savea 7 to 8 to make way for Sam Cane who has only ever been up to Super Rugby level at best. Hopefully this will be Canes swan song and can escape costing ABs again.
Awesome that you've seen so many great places in SA - but you haven't even scratched the surface - Next trip you must try to get to some of the Transkei, Karoo, Northern Cape, Limpopo, Mpumalanga. SA is spoiled with natural riches. Even the Free State has its moments!
And he's only 21 so if he goes good he's likely to have a very long AB career. But NZ deff needs to find someone to replace Ardie I reckon they play ardie too much and ardie should be leading NZ's own bombsquad type bench off the bench.
I have always stated that there is more pressure on Razor than Rassie, that said I also think that Razor knows that he needs to expand his group and get everyone some playtime. I was expecting a change at 9 but personally I would have kept the bulk of the side from last week as they comfortably outplayed the Boks for 60 min. Good luck and looking forward to another smashing game.
Tim should have a second channel to show his travels. He’s a natural story teller and I’ll bet it’d blow up.
I agree. That would be awesome!
Agreed!
He does it's called Tim travels
I completely agree!
I just hope Tim's prediction is right......Boks to win by 12 😁
Tim just said “Those okes on the highveld”. Guys, he’s home…🇿🇦
😂😂 truly.

Welcome home Tim

What is an 'oke'? Genuine question - I'm a Kiwi.

Brilliant , unbelievable scenery, and quite close to Ctown

And the Kiwi's.
@@petes9524I don't think any Kiwis really care when he releases his team 😂😂 they're just all focused on if useless TJ is starting.

That last 25 minutes and injuries is the reason for this selection. They want to finish strong unlike last week. Good luck to them. Excited to see what Dr Rassie will do next.
Rassie is taking longer then normal. I hope you enjoying Cape Town so far my man.
Yes it lets the media talk about the loss longer and put more pressure on NZ
He is spoiled for choice that's why...
@@FloatLikeABee that's true the depth of talent in tbe Springboks team is insane.

Hey Tim love you podcast really keep up the good rugby chat
I 2nd @seanthomson's idea to drive back pre-game to Cpt via Clarence drive, if it is open and safe. It is spectacular.
Wallace sititi is a crazy choice for 6. Hes only played there once or twice in super, another savea in the making
And he's only 21 so if he goes good he's likely to have a very long AB career. But NZ deff needs to find someone to replace Ardie I reckon they play ardie too much and ardie should be leading NZ's own bombsquad type bench off the bench.
Twice at npc level
Yeah, not sure on Wallace at 6. Never liked Ardie at 8. Another fosterism.
Quite excited about Sititi. He will be a weapon if he plays like he did for the chiefs.
I have always stated that there is more pressure on Razor than Rassie, that said I also think that Razor knows that he needs to expand his group and get everyone some playtime. I was expecting a change at 9 but personally I would have kept the bulk of the side from last week as they comfortably outplayed the Boks for 60 min. Good luck and looking forward to another smashing game.
