This was the first AB match I ever watched, I was 11! I remember watching rugby with my dad, but never happened to see NZ play until then, oh my God, I was hooked...!
Great game New Zealand are still the best team in the World. Just saying as a die hard Bok fan. Always an honor to play the AB and beat them at home. Boks still catching up after Isolation but one of the few teams who can go to NZ and win!
As a trained RFU ref feel I can disagree as a couch potatoe but if you have actually refereed a tough game please just understand that it’s impossible to get it right every time. I respect the referee every time because these guys give it 100% every game. I did. I have talked to captains after a game and said sorry but they all just said it’s OK. Off to the bar, beers on me. It’s the game we love so much. This is rugby not soccer. Despite all the junk you hear if you see a bunch of Kiwis and Saffas post game you will see the huge respect we have for each other. I wish I had the $ to go to New Zealand every year to fish for trout in their incredible rivers. Our rugby traditions are in our blood.
If you care about our nature and our rivers don't support the trout fishery. Trout a very destructive invasive species in this country spread purposefully by sports fishermen. Almost all native fish and amphibian species being out-competed and going extinct, industry lobbying too powerful to overcome because of the money made off of foreigners on trout fishing holidays
@@rohanvangraan5663 Yes, but Boks struggled to a 2-1 home win against an awful Wales side (Wales even lost to Italy in the last Six Nations round). So, unless we see a big improvement from the Boks in the Rugby Tornament, it's pretty easy to infer that Ireland and France lead the world right now.
@@rohanvangraan5663 Wales are awful, they lost to Italy! Do you think scraping a dodgy 2-1 home win against the worst Welsh team for 20 years is a great achievment? Bwahahahahahaha!
Hate seeing a guy like Ali leaving field. Clearly hurt. I know it’s a tough game but do not want to see someone hurt like that. Often it’s just bad luck of a collision. Great player.
Yeah, that was sick. Nowadays he'd have been straight off to hospital, no ifs or buts. Hope he doesn't suffer any ill affects from all the hits he took to his head during the career.
1:34:45 watch the call for 'holding on the ground' - Goddard gives a short arm free-kick, and the ABs get a line out. Horrificly wrong call for a ref on such a big stage. He basically made up a new rule / or didn't understand one of the most fundamental rules of the sport - that holding on = a penalty. Not venting anger at the ABs or NZ (cos the ref is Aus), just wishing to point out how horrific that reffing was, and how inept World Rugby have been at fixing this shit in the past
It’s incredible that the All Blacks can choose the best players from New Zealand, the best Fijians, the best Pacific Islanders, and they still cannot beat the Springboks!!!
what a loser comment......if u check them..they all born and bred here............yes well done u won the world cup 2019...but the abs rolled yous as usual
Hahaha yes they have kept the SpringBoks scoreless if you have not forgotten. But I have a lot of respect for the SpringBoks. Nothing like a All Black vs SpringBoks💪
If NZ were restricted to players born and raised in NZ their whole lives, their win/loss record would be very different. The All Blacks are really the South Pacific All Star Team. South Africa is, well, actually South Africa.
Another amatuer referee way out of his experience and skill to officiate a game of this magnitude. Three head high penalties in a row and NO yellow card!
Justin Marshall isn't so bad these days...Nisbett has always been like a bitter old man down the pub, 3 beers in and not filtering his thoughts. But I'd still take NZ commentators anyday over Aussie ones, or that Stuart Barnes prick from England
South African rugby wil never be the same again due to political interference. The government wil rather lose ever single and have n corrupt springbok team that is made out of black players that don't deserve to be there. And the quota system is downing the moral of the team.
yeah bro true, the quota system is unnecessary, look at how jake white and peter de villiers bought in black players based on merit, and turned them into legends, like habana. Boks need Johan Ackerman as coach and remove the quota system. Jantjies has the potential to be one of the best attacking 10's but he looks so shit under Coetzees useless gameplan
Bullshit High is high Crap ABs get another soft pass Ref just enforce the fucking rules It’s always OK to take a Bok out neck high. Saw this shit at RWC 2019. Just fucking unacceptable
This was the first AB match I ever watched, I was 11! I remember watching rugby with my dad, but never happened to see NZ play until then, oh my God, I was hooked...!
That's awesome so where are u from?
I remember I was so little this day listening this game on the radio with my uncle at grandmother's house. I was so happy the Springboks won :-) 💯
Here the Boks were the World Champs and now 2020 again...Two best sides in the World AB and Bokke...
Even tho they didn't deserve to win either worldcup.
@@isthatthebestyougot4845 🤣🤣🤣 what about the third? did we deserve that one? clown
This might have been thee greatest match in rugby history ...
Pretty great game. Nothing like AB's and Boks!
When these 2 teams play, fireworks.
Great game

another great Bokke - AB match ... S. Burger a hard man ... D. Carter & Mils M. dominating ...
RIP Sione Lauaki
Always be a bok, but man, AB rugby is always so positive.
True but the LOST. I rahter win ugly than loosing playing positive. Easy choice.
This crowd was a disgrace with its booing of Steyn's conversion kick. What's new there?
@@frankvendetta9230 yeah but their positivity has given them a success rate better than everyone else.

You always hear how much respect there is in this rivalry but then the crowd boos the Bok kicker every single time. Grinds my gears.
@Lemmy Five Quid it's only fair when you guys can perform a haka. Don't cry.
In my days it was dead silent when a conversion was taken...home team or not.And we also didnt swear at complete strangers..But Im old now.
Only the Bokke-ABs clashes are the most legendary.
Springbokke vir ewig!
Januarie saved us there.
Bloody good game, even 16 years later
Is Nonu the only guy still playing today?
The ultimate game in world rugby..Springboks vs All Blacks
Bakkie Botha was a fearsome dude. Look at this brutal cheap shot at 40:49. Would be a red in modern game.
What a fantastic game! excellent upload!
Januarie was a really good halfback. Well done Boks. Till next time...
Boks and All Blacks remain the best in rugby. Match ups are always on another level.
Ireland and France are better than either Boks or ABs now.
@@thadtuiol1717 Easy to say when they haven't played the Boks innit?

To be fair, I think the standard of international refereeing has improved in recent years. Heck, even Wayne Barnes has improved!
@1:31:00 New Zealanders finally learned why we in the NH say "January is the cruelest month"
How on earth did January gather that ball?
Nice to see a ref calling Kiwis out! Admire NZ but they stretch it at times then pretend they are angels!😆
Yeah, McCaw was the worst for that, so much so that 'McCaw Ball' became infamous among opposition sides.
Two faced seems to be the general characteristic of both our governance and media.
This ref killed the game...
Ol school rugby love it melted is a legend
The January magic is at 1:30:49 Enjoy.

This Ref belongs to the WWE match not Rugby!
Only 10 minutes in and I'm already sick of Mexted's moaning.
Boks first try is definitely penalty try & yellow for ABs 11
12:16 - Bakkies blows Kaino a kiss lol
The commentators' bias is such a shame
None as blind as an NZ commentator... always
Justin Marshall isn't so bad these days...Nisbett has always been like a bitter old man down the pub, 3 beers in and not filtering his thoughts. But I'd still take NZ commentators anyday over Aussie ones, or that Stuart Barnes prick from England
Hi I think if only Prince Tui Teka played in this game the AB will win this game easily.I always have hope in Tui Teka Fanau.
such a shame what is happening to Bok rugby.

Colour didn't seem to alter the result one iota. Racism is so wrong; as is hypocrisy, and reactive anger . Two wongs never made a white.
@@timrogers2045 I might have to steal that great quote - Two wongs hahaa
Yeah but why we celebrating so madly 😂😂😂 have we never beaten New Zealand before this 😅
Bullshit
High is high
Crap
ABs get another soft pass
Ref just enforce the fucking rules
It’s always OK to take a Bok out neck high. Saw this shit at RWC 2019.
Just fucking unacceptable
Neck high tackle!
Try and Yellow Card!
Fuck yeah

Why? They are beautiful animals
