Big Jim, our brother from across the oceans. I just love how you get us, SAs if you don’t know us, are easy to dislike. What makes it worse is we don’t really care what others think. Imperfectly perfect, chaotically organized, bragadociously humble. I have watched this series, usually through tears, but still looked forward to every one of your reviews. Don’t pass by again without stopping anywhere you want for some wine, a chat or a braai. Our favorite voice out there along with Eggchasers. Hope your lad recovers soon and the family are well.
@martinj....Feite boetie. You nailed it on so many levels! Brilliant summation /observation etc, ... saffas are the 'rough diamonds'... we just need a bit of coordinated effort, and some polishing for us to truly shine, and da Bokke are .... need I say more😊
If a producer really want to make a true life Cinderella story it would be the Deon Fourie story. He became a Springbok at an age when nost people are retired. Years of grinding it out and disappointments. He got chosen as a backup flanker and ends up playing 78 minutes of the World cup final as a hooker and ends the match as the winning captain. You cannot script this true story. Will surely be a blockbuster.
My only criticism with the whole show is how Mostert and Kriel didn't get their moment, Mosters had huge games, vs scotland, vs NZ, the tackles he put on with PSTD. And Kriel played the best rugby of his entire career, during a time everyone was worried with AM being injured.
Big Jim , as a South African born Scot’s man , I respect you and your unbiased opinions when it comes to South Africa, it’s sad how the rest of the world doesn’t respect or recognize we are a simple nation that play rugby with our hearts, and this is a sport that , the Afrikaans people had to learn about in prison camps in the boer war
Can I tell you that Deon Fourie is also the nicest guy! His journey, everything about him as a person has shot up in my books! (Coming from a South African who just shot an ad series with him). A hero!
I need that Jacques Nienaber speech embroidered on a huge tapestry to hang in my house for motivation! What a documentary, what a game, what a world cup!
Thanks Jim, for digging deep to really understand what makes South Africans and their 'Boks be what we are. Now to stay humble and grateful ... Life is grace.
I could listen to Jim in the morning, afternoon, and evening..your work is out of this world..much appreciated big Jimmy! And a speedy recovery to your lad
this was a masterclass of a documentary even watching it now I cried at the end and that epic scene of rassie crying when they arrive back in south Africa
Love you Big Jim. From every South African viewer. You get us. You GET us! Making you an honorary Saffa and appreciate your impartiality. Keep spreading the love dude. ❤
South Africa doesn't play for glory. Don't care about the ranking. Our hopes and dreams and aspirations are symbolically engraved in the Webb Ellis cup. Since the day Mandela laid hands on that thing, South Africans became spiritually connected to it forever. Nothing matters more than winning that cup
Hey Jim! No apology necessary - family always comes first. I hope your young man is healing up well. Thanks so much for this series. I'm South African and I've thoroughly enjoyed your guided tour through what may be the crowning achievement of a Springbok golden era. We may not win them all, but we win when it really matters - and I can tell you that both the 2019 and 2023 world cups really have mattered to us as a people. We're going through a lot as a nation. Your insights and opinions are a real treat, so I think I'll be tuning in to your podcast more regularly. Tak care!
Big Jim. Imagine an evening with you, EggChasers and Wildkard together in South Africa during the test season in South Africa? It will be box office. Please consider it.
Big Jim... You are a legend!! Even when you aren't talking about SA, your insight and value you bring to the table makes you the best rugby podcaster with Tim from eggchasers winning rookie of the year. It would be great to hear if and how your perspective has changed around SA after your time with the Sharks all those years back? Wishing your son a strong and speedy recovery. We look forward to hosting you on our shores in the near future we hope. Tim is coming out for both the Ireland series and the All Blacks so both of you should collaborate and do a live show which I'm sure will sell out very easily.
Thanks much for this Big Jim! As a South African working in Yemen, watching and listening to your review means a lot! You be safe, and I trust your Youngster recuperates well!
ABs played 14 v 14 for 16 minutes in 2nd half. And seeing Deon’s shoulder injury, it’s no wonder he struggled with the throw-ins. My heart goes out to Bongi… after swallowing all that shit from English media the whole week only to get croc rolled in first few minutes.
2 years ago Pieter Steph Du Toit had a career ending ACL injury , so his dad gave a piece of his tendon to strengthen Pieter Steph's ACL....it's an amazing story.🏉🇿🇦
I think Sam Cane took the tackle upright, straight legs which makes it dangerous and there was a lot of talk around this, Siya clearly bent his legs, this is the difference between red and yellow cards. Felix was incredible, I am nervous with him no longer being with the Boks. Loved Jacques speach too, wonderful addition to the amazing series. There are few non South Africans who understood the prase "hulle weet nie wat ons weet nie", you are the only one who I have seen get it spot on. It's the heart of a South African, can't isn't in our vocabulary...very impressive, well done! Thank you Jim, what a road it has been, look forward to you visiting SA for some of the big games.
Thanks Mate. At last LOL. As a Saffa i just want to say thank you for understanding us. Your interviews are epic. Please come pop around for a beer in Cape Town.
Jim, you hit on such a significant truth at the end of this review - it is true! The Springboks DO playing for more. It is identified and articulated in our national discourse... we ARE playing for more! And it was so interesting to hear you reference Ardie Savea, one of the best in the world, reflecting upon the fact that he could not identify a similar narrative regarding the AB's.
That 'something more' is what gives SH teams the edge. Half the players in the NH teams were not born and raised in the countries they represent. To them it's just a pay cheque.
@@MN-yb2tythink he needs a bit more than a few games as attacking structures are hard to embed in. Not sure what his coaching style is like but one thing I know is that he will have to conform to the Bok culture otherwise he won’t last long, regardless of how good he is.
Totally agree, there was not 1 player in that squad that was less than great. After every game, I could not suggest a best player, the team and every member was just incredible. Best rugby I’ve every watched. Impossible to sustain that level, it will be how they deal with being beaten in games. And take nothing away from France, Ireland, England and All Blacks.
On the Cane and Kolisi tackles, even though there were only inches in it, there was a fundamental difference in technique. Cane was upright and Kolisi was leaning forward into the tackle. That's the critical difference that kept Kolisi in the game.
Im a South African living in the UK. Got all 5 episodes today and binge watched it. You are 100% correct its a master class in how to do a documentary. The emotional rollercoaster..absolutely Brilliant.
Jim, I'm not sure if you've seen it but Whistleblowers is a really good documentary as well. I know it's on Rugbypass TV but it really provides amazing insight and perspective of the referees during the 2023 World Cup. It reminded me a lot of Chasing the Sun.
Love your work Jim. Interesting reaction from Ardie as you shared. As proud as I am about being South African and this documentary, I think there is some real value for the entire rugby world in it. And maybe from an insider's perspective it isn't as clear but hearing yours and a few others, it becomes more so. Thanks and looking forward to your chats with the guys based in Japan.
Its an amazing sports documentary, and like you said Jim well done to everyone involved. I would have loved to also have access to a similar AB, Irish, English, French and Scottish documentary. It would be fascinating to see how these teams and nations approach each game.
Thanks Jim, really enjoyed all the reviews. Hope everyone get a chance to watch it globally. And then have some insight as to why we love rugby so much. And why we know what they don't...
Great wrap up on the series. Seeing Duane crying at the end got me man! Was hard hearing you mention Ardie couldn't find the 'why' behind what they do. Hopefully, they find it quickly so they dont go down like the Aussies. We need the All Blacks in top form, it keeps us on our toes!
Hi Jim, I don't have access to Chasing the sun 2 yet even though I live in SA.. So I was wondering why you had not yet sent your review out. I hope that your son recovers well. I love the sincerity of your channel. You are a legend yourself. You bring a lot of joy to many folk in South Africa.
Thanks Jim, as always thanks for the review, I was looking for this one, so when it was pulled, I was initially disappointed. abut you're back with a bang. Chasing the Sun (1 & 2), emotional and gives us Saffas immense pride, that the rest of the world gets to see what we know
Thank you Jim, another great video. You get us 👍. This documentary is just amazing!! I am very proud to be a South African. Having watch CTS 2, it's gone up a level or 2
Thank you for sharing our story. I know we have some terrible fans, but at the end of the day saffas are just a proud nation and you will find that most south africans are kind and friendly. Thank you Rassie ❤
I've been waiting for this one! Love your take on it, mate. Chasing the Sun 2 was just amazing. The last episode had me crying at various instances. Jaques' speech. Duane's words. The lack of words at the end. Bloody hell! I wish your son all the best with his recovery!
Thanks for the synopsis throughout the series Jim. It kind of takes a blokes bloke to properly understand the nuances behind this team and their psyche. You get it. All the best for your lad - I’ve got 4 boys so understand!
Hope your boy heals well. Just tell him Pieter Steph's injury story by way of inspiration. And thanks for the reviews of CtS2. Been waiting for this one all week.
Best wishes to your son on a full recovery, Jim. I know that kind of thing is hard for the whole family. And as a fan of your work, thanks for doing what you do. Really excited for the interviews from Japan.
Love your show, Jim. I've been watching you for months now and lived through rugby from the late 70's. I love your dedication/commitment & passion for the game. Your knowledge, insights, and networking make it so interesting and exciting as a subscriber and viewers. And your commentary is always factual, hands-on, and unbiased. Awesome 👌 Channel !!! Heeps more interesting and genuine than the 3 stooges (sorry, I can't help myself) and their commentary in the Breakdown show in NZ. I'm almost positive they get paid to encourage sensational commentary. But love your channel, Jim. From a Bok supporter in Cape Town
Great review! There are very few from the media that truly understand what drives the Bokke. You managed to capture it, I also liked the Eggchasers review. I absolutely loved this series, a shame I had to jump through hoops to see it in the Netherlands. Hope your son recovers fully and quickly!
You’re equally brilliant Big Jim - & have supported you & Nat Rugby Team - singing Flower of Scotland as Passionately from the Brave Heart in particular playing for & now record 4th successive Calcutta Cup vs still hypercrical auld enemy England - In RSA/Zim SpringBoks - Yes it is We /They want & believe it more & Rassie the Top Catalyst ( similar to Telffer/Geeg Scot’s coaches & Chasing the Sun is So True ( might add means even more for a Rhodesian Rugby Lion / now Zim Sable 👍😀🏉🇿🇼🏴🇿🇦🏉🏆🥇💜🙏
Big Jim, our brother from across the oceans. I just love how you get us, SAs if you don’t know us, are easy to dislike. What makes it worse is we don’t really care what others think. Imperfectly perfect, chaotically organized, bragadociously humble. I have watched this series, usually through tears, but still looked forward to every one of your reviews. Don’t pass by again without stopping anywhere you want for some wine, a chat or a braai. Our favorite voice out there along with Eggchasers. Hope your lad recovers soon and the family are well.
Great comments, well written!
@martinj....Feite boetie. You nailed it on so many levels!
Brilliant summation /observation etc, ... saffas are the 'rough diamonds'... we just need a bit of coordinated effort, and some polishing for us to truly shine, and da Bokke are .... need I say more😊
Well said bru
Bra Jakes 👌🤝👊
Couldn't agree with you more. Tim from Eggchasers is another top-class rugby pundit. Jim & Tim are the current 2 best rugby pundits out there.
If a producer really want to make a true life Cinderella story it would be the Deon Fourie story. He became a Springbok at an age when nost people are retired. Years of grinding it out and disappointments. He got chosen as a backup flanker and ends up playing 78 minutes of the World cup final as a hooker and ends the match as the winning captain. You cannot script this true story. Will surely be a blockbuster.
My only criticism with the whole show is how Mostert and Kriel didn't get their moment, Mosters had huge games, vs scotland, vs NZ, the tackles he put on with PSTD. And Kriel played the best rugby of his entire career, during a time everyone was worried with AM being injured.
Jesse kriel was in it like twice or thrice
Big Jim , as a South African born Scot’s man , I respect you and your unbiased opinions when it comes to South Africa, it’s sad how the rest of the world doesn’t respect or recognize we are a simple nation that play rugby with our hearts, and this is a sport that , the Afrikaans people had to learn about in prison camps in the boer war
Broken bones and sons are synonymous… wishing your laaitie speedy recovery.
i am a proud South African, just saying thank you, been checking every day for your review... hope your son gets well soon..
Me too..been waiting weeks for this review:)
I remember PTSD crying after beating NZ in 2018 and i realised this mountain of a man puts his heart and soul into the Springboks. What a legend.
The boys were hungry on that game you could tell that win ment alot to them
What made that win such a big thing for the Springboks' was the fact that they had lost that fixture 57-0 and came back to win the next year.
I don't think that PSDT has PTSD, but then again who knows.
That image of PSDT you mention is one that I'll never forget. What a moment.
Mr Humble
KWAGGA, the battle stat KING👑!!!!!!
All the best to your son, I hope he has a speedy recovery... and thank you for the great content on here and the Rugby Pod.
Can I tell you that Deon Fourie is also the nicest guy! His journey, everything about him as a person has shot up in my books! (Coming from a South African who just shot an ad series with him). A hero!
Just started rewatching chasing the sun season 1. This series needs to be shown in schools around the world.
It’s even better than the second installment
You means this FUCKING series? Perfect viewing for minors😂
There’ll be a lot of bleeps lol
@@willemsteyn7808 hahaha... true
Are you crazy! All that cursing!
I need that Jacques Nienaber speech embroidered on a huge tapestry to hang in my house for motivation! What a documentary, what a game, what a world cup!
You shouldn’t be here, but you are here!
My 12 year old Rugby playing son said that was his favourite part of the Doccie. And for me Rassie speech at the end about our Country.
Tell your own story!
Nienaber already turning Leinster into what looks an unbeatable* side...check out their 1st half v northampton last week
Thanks Jim, for digging deep to really understand what makes South Africans and their 'Boks be what we are. Now to stay humble and grateful ... Life is grace.
Wishing your young man a speedy recovery, Big Jim.
Pieter-Steph is the gentlest of characters off the field but on it the man turns into an absolute monster.
I could listen to Jim in the morning, afternoon, and evening..your work is out of this world..much appreciated big Jimmy! And a speedy recovery to your lad
this was a masterclass of a documentary even watching it now I cried at the end and that epic scene of rassie crying when they arrive back in south Africa
Love you Big Jim. From every South African viewer. You get us. You GET us! Making you an honorary Saffa and appreciate your impartiality. Keep spreading the love dude. ❤
Jim, you talk from the heart. Thanks! As a South African, man those ABs were magnificent. What a final!
Sublime wrap Big Jim. We Saffas appreciate you. Hope your boy is good.👊
South Africa doesn't play for glory. Don't care about the ranking. Our hopes and dreams and aspirations are symbolically engraved in the Webb Ellis cup. Since the day Mandela laid hands on that thing, South Africans became spiritually connected to it forever. Nothing matters more than winning that cup
hear! hear!
Truth
I don't care for Mandela.
The sale of yscor happened on Mandela's watch. A world-class company. Where did the billions go? Start of state capture. Don't forget that.
I doubt if Mandela cared about racist apartheid beneficiaries either
Hey Jim!
No apology necessary - family always comes first.
I hope your young man is healing up well.
Thanks so much for this series. I'm South African and I've thoroughly enjoyed your guided tour through what may be the crowning achievement of a Springbok golden era.
We may not win them all, but we win when it really matters - and I can tell you that both the 2019 and 2023 world cups really have mattered to us as a people. We're going through a lot as a nation.
Your insights and opinions are a real treat, so I think I'll be tuning in to your podcast more regularly.
Tak care!
Best sports documentary i have ever seen.. simply brilliant 👌👌
All the best to your boy, Jim🙏
Big Jim. Imagine an evening with you, EggChasers and Wildkard together in South Africa during the test season in South Africa? It will be box office. Please consider it.
Now that is a great idea! They are all class!
If these guys did this as fundraiser for grassroots rugby teams, I would pay big bucks to enjoy their company and chatter. A great idea.
We can have a braai at my place. I will provide the ice and meat.
And Alfie too! He also has a super rugby channel.
Big Jim... You are a legend!! Even when you aren't talking about SA, your insight and value you bring to the table makes you the best rugby podcaster with Tim from eggchasers winning rookie of the year.
It would be great to hear if and how your perspective has changed around SA after your time with the Sharks all those years back?
Wishing your son a strong and speedy recovery.
We look forward to hosting you on our shores in the near future we hope. Tim is coming out for both the Ireland series and the All Blacks so both of you should collaborate and do a live show which I'm sure will sell out very easily.
As a South African it makes me very teary, even when you talk about Chasing the Sun, never mind actually watching it!! Loved your commentary
I said it too: there's no coincidence that they've won two World Cups back to back.
“Poetry in motion”, sums it up perfectly 👌Thanks for a great show Jim
Thanks much for this Big Jim! As a South African working in Yemen, watching and listening to your review means a lot! You be safe, and I trust your Youngster recuperates well!
ABs played 14 v 14 for 16 minutes in 2nd half. And seeing Deon’s shoulder injury, it’s no wonder he struggled with the throw-ins. My heart goes out to Bongi… after swallowing all that shit from English media the whole week only to get croc rolled in first few minutes.
Why do people always miss Damian de Allende(12)...... ? One of the Springboks most underrated player!!!!
All the best for your boy.Great show,always watching
2 years ago Pieter Steph Du Toit had a career ending ACL injury , so his dad gave a piece of his tendon to strengthen Pieter Steph's ACL....it's an amazing story.🏉🇿🇦
Almost lost his leg also
I think Sam Cane took the tackle upright, straight legs which makes it dangerous and there was a lot of talk around this, Siya clearly bent his legs, this is the difference between red and yellow cards.

I'm so glad you highlighted Deon and Kwagga...they are everything to me. I must also sing your praises...Roy
Thanks Mate. At last LOL. As a Saffa i just want to say thank you for understanding us. Your interviews are epic. Please come pop around for a beer in Cape Town.
Hope your son is doing well. I have been waiting all week, it felt incomplete watching the episode 5 without your input. Thank you for the reviews.
Been waiting for this all week!!!
All the best with your son. I am a South African and have been checking every day for your review on episode 5 😅
Jim, you hit on such a significant truth at the end of this review - it is true! The Springboks DO playing for more. It is identified and articulated in our national discourse... we ARE playing for more! And it was so interesting to hear you reference Ardie Savea, one of the best in the world, reflecting upon the fact that he could not identify a similar narrative regarding the AB's.
The two things I loved watching: Chasing the sun 2, and you reviewing it. Great job! Keep up the good work
That 'something more' is what gives SH teams the edge. Half the players in the NH teams were not born and raised in the countries they represent. To them it's just a pay cheque.
Pls keep up the good work Jim.i definitely became a fan during the world cup❤
Losing Felix Jones is a blow, but gaining Tony Brown could take us to a whole new level.
I loved Felix, is going to make hating England slightly harder. but Brown is gonna be a game changer
can only judge Brown on the next couple of games hopefully he proves me wrong he seems allot like eddie to me
@@MN-yb2tythink he needs a bit more than a few games as attacking structures are hard to embed in. Not sure what his coaching style is like but one thing I know is that he will have to conform to the Bok culture otherwise he won’t last long, regardless of how good he is.
One of your best videos to me yet. Especially showing your understanding of what giving hope to south africans mean.
Totally agree, there was not 1 player in that squad that was less than great. After every game, I could not suggest a best player, the team and every member was just incredible. Best rugby I’ve every watched. Impossible to sustain that level, it will be how they deal with being beaten in games. And take nothing away from France, Ireland, England and All Blacks.
Big Jim, I am becoming a big fan of your work ! Love your passion, honesty and balance! You call a spade a spade! The type of guy one can trust !
As I am sure from many South Africans, We hope your Son gets better soon mate, everything else is a bonus 🙏
On the Cane and Kolisi tackles, even though there were only inches in it, there was a fundamental difference in technique. Cane was upright and Kolisi was leaning forward into the tackle. That's the critical difference that kept Kolisi in the game.
Im a South African living in the UK. Got all 5 episodes today and binge watched it. You are 100% correct its a master class in how to do a documentary. The emotional rollercoaster..absolutely Brilliant.

Jim, I'm not sure if you've seen it but Whistleblowers is a really good documentary as well. I know it's on Rugbypass TV but it really provides amazing insight and perspective of the referees during the 2023 World Cup. It reminded me a lot of Chasing the Sun.
He does mention it in his previous episodes , he has seen it
Appreciate your passion for thr game mate. Nothing beat a team playing for a bigger purpose!
Kwagga and Sous are the secret sous in this setup. Absolutely brilliant contributors.
Jim, your intro explains why you, too, are a class act. Great review as always!
Jim, your passion for the game is obvious. Great review, thank you.
Edit: All our best wishes for your son.
Love your work Jim. Interesting reaction from Ardie as you shared. As proud as I am about being South African and this documentary, I think there is some real value for the entire rugby world in it. And maybe from an insider's perspective it isn't as clear but hearing yours and a few others, it becomes more so. Thanks and looking forward to your chats with the guys based in Japan.
Jim, love your work and your honesty, I would love to see you and Tim from Eggchasers do a live stream together :)
Thanks Jim, you are an amazing story teller. Was searching for your response it was worth the wait. Thx again.
Its an amazing sports documentary, and like you said Jim well done to everyone involved. I would have loved to also have access to a similar AB, Irish, English, French and Scottish documentary. It would be fascinating to see how these teams and nations approach each game.
Respect brother, you are the leveler in rugby!
Jim as a South African I have been waiting for your podcast. Thanks for the great work. Im jealous you must have loads of South African friends.
Thanks Jim, really enjoyed all the reviews. Hope everyone get a chance to watch it globally. And then have some insight as to why we love rugby so much. And why we know what they don't...
Great wrap up on the series. Seeing Duane crying at the end got me man! Was hard hearing you mention Ardie couldn't find the 'why' behind what they do. Hopefully, they find it quickly so they dont go down like the Aussies. We need the All Blacks in top form, it keeps us on our toes!
Dankie Jim! Wonderful review. I've know it since the late 80s- the South Africans are a different breed of humans! Tremendous!
Hi Jim, I don't have access to Chasing the sun 2 yet even though I live in SA.. So I was wondering why you had not yet sent your review out. I hope that your son recovers well. I love the sincerity of your channel. You are a legend yourself. You bring a lot of joy to many folk in South Africa.
I just love watching your videos, no negatively but always honest. Thanks
Awesome intro to chasing the sun & context to the previous video! Speedy recovery at home! I am excited to watch your review 🇿🇦
Thanks Jim, as always thanks for the review, I was looking for this one, so when it was pulled, I was initially disappointed. abut you're back with a bang. Chasing the Sun (1 & 2), emotional and gives us Saffas immense pride, that the rest of the world gets to see what we know
I've been waiting for this episode for what feels like ages! Thanks for your amazing story telling and best of luck to your son
Love your breakdown Jim! As honest and real as it gets. Massive respect.
Thank you Jim, another great video. You get us 👍. This documentary is just amazing!! I am very proud to be a South African. Having watch CTS 2, it's gone up a level or 2
Thank you for sharing our story. I know we have some terrible fans, but at the end of the day saffas are just a proud nation and you will find that most south africans are kind and friendly. Thank you Rassie ❤
Excellent contribution Big Jim
Great entertainment and very informative
Much enjoyed
Thanks stax…‼️👊🔥
🥂

Hope your kid is OK, thanks for the review, can't wait to see it in uk.
Thank you for your appreciation and passion 👏👏👏
Chasing the Sun2 is more than just a rugby documentary. You actually have to watch it a couple of times to see, to get it all in. Brilliant
Hope your son gets well soon! I am going to watch the E5 again now. So awesome!
I've been waiting for this one! Love your take on it, mate. Chasing the Sun 2 was just amazing. The last episode had me crying at various instances. Jaques' speech. Duane's words. The lack of words at the end. Bloody hell! I wish your son all the best with his recovery!
Thanks for the synopsis throughout the series Jim. It kind of takes a blokes bloke to properly understand the nuances behind this team and their psyche. You get it. All the best for your lad - I’ve got 4 boys so understand!
Hope your boy heals well. Just tell him Pieter Steph's injury story by way of inspiration. And thanks for the reviews of CtS2. Been waiting for this one all week.
Original review was great. It was honest and raw.
Thanks for your honesty and integrity on the Game of Rugby Jim really enjoy your take on chasing the Sun 2
Excellent as always and I see others waiting for it too and was worth it. Thank you. In the UK so no access yet but look forward to it.
Brilliant review Jim; wishing your young man a speedy recovery
Best wishes to your son on a full recovery, Jim. I know that kind of thing is hard for the whole family. And as a fan of your work, thanks for doing what you do. Really excited for the interviews from Japan.
Jim and Tim 🤗
That collab is needed by all of sport RUclips fans
Love your show, Jim. I've been watching you for months now and lived through rugby from the late 70's. I love your dedication/commitment & passion for the game. Your knowledge, insights, and networking make it so interesting and exciting as a subscriber and viewers. And your commentary is always factual, hands-on, and unbiased. Awesome 👌 Channel !!!
Heeps more interesting and genuine than the 3 stooges (sorry, I can't help myself) and their commentary in the Breakdown show in NZ. I'm almost positive they get paid to encourage sensational commentary.
But love your channel, Jim. From a Bok supporter in Cape Town
Always appreciate your take on things. All bases covered and very considered. Thanks mate
I was waiting for this... thank you for being a lover of this wonderful game...
Felix jones 💪💪
Our loss is England’s gain but he will always be a bit ours.
Our loss and England's gain
I watch a lot of rugby (and Chasing the Sun) and you are so on point with your observations. Hope your kid recovers quickly.
I’ve been waiting a long time for this one mate!! It was a Masterclass, thank you! You’re a legend in SA, keep rocking bru🤘🏻🤘🏻
Great review! There are very few from the media that truly understand what drives the Bokke. You managed to capture it, I also liked the Eggchasers review. I absolutely loved this series, a shame I had to jump through hoops to see it in the Netherlands. Hope your son recovers fully and quickly!
Also been waiting patiently for this episode thanks Jim. Good excuse though, kids always come first❤
You’re equally brilliant Big Jim - & have supported you & Nat Rugby Team - singing Flower of Scotland as Passionately from the Brave Heart in particular playing for & now record 4th successive Calcutta Cup vs still hypercrical auld enemy England - In RSA/Zim SpringBoks - Yes it is We /They want & believe it more & Rassie the Top Catalyst ( similar to Telffer/Geeg Scot’s coaches & Chasing the Sun is So True ( might add means even more for a Rhodesian Rugby Lion / now Zim Sable 👍😀🏉🇿🇼🏴🇿🇦🏉🏆🥇💜🙏
Your boy comes first, mate. Hope he’s doing well. Great show.
Always enjoys Big Jim's expert analysis. Was looking forward to his review and it was definitely worth the wait.
Was waiting and waiting for this review...worth the wait! Thank-you!
Jim. Thank you. Albert. South Africa.
