I agree, we will be building even more depth from where we are currently. Combine that with Coach Brown's attacking style. This team is gonna be unstoppable in few months.
You ought to be touchy when people are trying to invent facts and create a false narrative. It’s true Ireland never made a semi-final or a final let alone winning the world cup 4 times and back to be back. Let’s just learn to accept and give credit where it’s due. Boks are the best team at the moment.
South Africa are a great team but they're not as consistent as some of the other top ranked teams like New Zealand or Ireland. Just look at the Boks winning rate between world cups - It stands somewhere around 60%. They won the world cup by a single point while their opposition were down to 14 men. Ireland beat South Africa in the same tournament so it does call into question who the real best team in the world are. It seems to me that South Africa spend an inordinate amount of time talking about this, they should just move on and prove the doubters wrong by winning consistently between world cups.
Do you want the World Cup for winning a group stage game? Absolutely ridiculous. That’s the nature of tournament rugby. And only two teams have dominated for a reason.
Not really. They just win a tournament. Over all they keep getting beat by Ireland and only way they win first game was by bad biased ref and altitude advantage. Very good team but but lreland are in there head😂😂😂😂😂
Worst NZ side in recent memory beat the worlds best Irish team last year in WC when it really mattered. Ireland are consistently good, but the GREAT teams/players...will always WIN titles.
everyone's entitled to their opinion ...but Sam thought long and hard about the kak he said ...then woke up the next morning and hard to do the right thing..!! that is ..to never talk kak again..!
Sam is Welsh, and he misslabeled the world second best team as the world best team, hardly a shocking mistake considering the world second best team just drew over two games with the world best team away from home! Had he said the world cup winners were the best in the world it would hardly be an insight into how good they are 😂
Rubbish. Irelands recent win was commendable and impressive but that was 1 game. What have they actually won? They were beaten the week before and have not featured in any important tournaments (ie any world cup in history). You can believe what you want but the proof is in the pudding
South Africa were also missing players - so your point ends there. Plus Ireland required two miracle drop goals to pull it off (brilliant yes) but not convincing enough to lay claim as being dominant
Sorry but South Africa can’t be the best team in the world. In order to be the best you have to be clean when winning WC’s. South Africa aren’t clean. Another one of their players just tested positive.
Sour grapes. Good luck getting to the semi final next time around though! One day you bottlers might even make a final. Keep playing your big tournaments against the likes of Italy and Wales. Such strong competition to make Ireland ‘the best team’ in the world.
Really we going their just can't acknowledge SA is world's best even better than AB sa 4 world cups ab 3 world cups ab played inore world cups than sa now all u haters that's in my book's SA is better than AB and are the best everyone stay saying ab no 1 but actually SA is no 1 hate or love it's the truth no matter how u want to spin it
Ireland are the best team in the world. Rugby isn't even our third best sport!! How many times do we have to beat SA for their fans to admit it. Ye got lucky at the WC and ye know it.
So you can say that England is a better football side to Spain even although Spain won the tournament. If you agree with Sam then you have no logic. Personal opinions that defy logic should not be printed in a newspaper. Ireland have never made it past the quarter finals even with all their super stars in the team. Sam himself has also never been in a team that has won the Rugby World Cup. Glad he corrected himself because it was a baseless comment from him. Unfortunately for Sam and yourself South Africa are the World Champions until the tournament in 2027 is completed.
Everyone made mistakes it took a man to apologize...greatings from safa...
Respect to the man for admitting he was wrong 👍

South Africa is going back into a building phase, it is going to be tough winning for a while against top teams.
the best team has RWC trophies in their cabinet😀
England ?
It is remarkable how touchy Saffas are about this.

Yes we turn it on when it counts. And btw, we're not the ones talking about it. Warburton isn't South African is he?

Agreed
The winner of The Rugby World Cup Tournament determines who the best team in the world is.
Not really.
They just win a tournament.

Very good team but but lreland are in there head😂😂😂😂😂
@@irishjohna8700lol can’t even get to a semi final. Even Argentina have managed it. Delusional.
Small talk, anybody who really cares about rugby only want to see competitive games and/or great rugby.
You know the score 💪
He was right the first time. Ireland are No1! Away win in SA home.. IRELAND ARE NO.1
Worst NZ side in recent memory beat the worlds best Irish team last year in WC when it really mattered.

In your heaaadd in your heeeaad, Waaarburton , Warrrburton ....

He keep on embarrassing himself alot
Ireland living rent free in the Saffas heads😂😂
A weakened Ireland team beat SA in SA, so I think his original comment was correct.
Rubbish. Irelands recent win was commendable and impressive but that was 1 game. What have they actually won? They were beaten the week before and have not featured in any important tournaments (ie any world cup in history). You can believe what you want but the proof is in the pudding
SA also had a ton of injuries.
South Africa were also missing players - so your point ends there. Plus Ireland required two miracle drop goals to pull it off (brilliant yes) but not convincing enough to lay claim as being dominant
Childish. We beat SA all the time now its just normal for us.
@@tadghmurphy7807 yet lost the previous game from the test. I don't see 2-0.

A player which was not in the world squad of 2023, not playing in springbok jersey recently.

SAteam only count on penalty points look at what they did with the game IRELAND VS SA and line icks and coner kicks when this dont work there way .
Ireland are the best team in the world. Rugby isn't even our third best sport!! How many times do we have to beat SA for their fans to admit it. Ye got lucky at the WC and ye know it.
Urgh :(
Never back down Sam. They are way too sensitive about all this so wind them up.
😂😂😂it time to start thinking about winning a world cup and be the best,you can't be the best with zero world cups

It's not about backing down. Sam has common sense. Ireland is a good team, but not the best team in the world.
Has Sam achieved anything close to the Boks. I'm an Aussie with respect for what that Bok team achieved.
You seem winded up my brother man
