As an Irish supporter, I have never in my 50 years seen the All Blacks, so dominated and man handled like that ever. Very impressive from South Africa.
Rugby is easier when you play with a full compliment. Lol. 1. The abs Where tactically speaking, not doing what they did last game, ie countering a rush d. 2. They had 14 men for most of the game. Have faith, just a blip. And not hugely relevant
@@thefabulousplatypus8956 they were man handled long long long before the red card. Your forwards were already blown off the park hence the 4 penaltys before even a yellow was shown. NORMAL BIASED AB TREATMENT. Barrett played a Bakkies on the crowd and should get the ban that Bakkies got during the British Lions tour. Your forwards were shoved off the park and that's why your cards happened.
All in all, I am just glad there are no serious injuries, man. From a saffa, it's always awesome seeing our Boks play the ABs. Tough bounce of the ball for you guys, but I am happy to see the lineout performance for the green and gold. It's like the Boks are in worldcup mode and shifted into another gear now. All the best for the WC fixtures. Till we meet again in the tournament.
Yes, that is a combo to watch. Moodie is going to be a super star. what a boytjie! Great to see Andre taking his chances as well. What a team! Springboks💚💛
I’m so happy that Libbok shut everyone up. I hate this tendency that we have to make a scapegoat out of a player, especially when he’s playing arguably the most important and pressure-prone position. And he was sublime tonight.
@@TwoCentsRugby No doubt NZ will come out at France firing on all cylinders. Like one of those Supercar V8s you guys love out there! Thanks for all the great content, here’s hoping we meet in the quarters or even better, the final!
As a Welsh fan I felt better about last weekend after watching this. If the boks can do this to the all blacks then that demolition last week was actually not that bad! 😂
People seemed to forget that the Boks are still World Cup Champions. This performance is a real statement, to remind everyone that they are still the team to beat
lol, me too! I watched it half-thinking that this'll give some context to last weeks result against so many youngsters, but I really wasn't expecting this!
People seem to not know what happened or watched the game. There was 60 minutes of cards, unheard of in rugby, because refs are not told to be utter f&&& wads and actually know how to officiate. This was an intentional sabotage of the game. This ref is dead.
South Africa literally just pulled off the impossible… they decisively beat the All Blacks, ending their unbeaten run. The ABs go into the RWC having lost to the defending Champions, and the Boks go into the RWC making all the pundits rethink their bets. Clean, powerful and accurate… Boks really stepped up this game. Esterhuizen has claimed that 12 jersey as far as I’m concerned. And Willemse takes the 15. No doubt.
I haven't been sold on Esterhuizens defense yet. Offensively, he's fine, but he hasn't been tested. Willemse was great. As a whole we played well but lacked accuracy and killer instinct. We left opportunities and tries on the board and failed to really put them away in that period when they were down 2 people. No All Blacks team would fail to score multiple times on a team that was down two players. We did ok in that period but needed to do better.
I dont think the All Blacks were overly serious in this game. The boks were fantastic and it would have been a hard ask to beat them that day regardless, but i dont think we really seen the All Blacks turn up properly.
So happy as a Bok supporter. I know your pain Mark, having suffered a few losses like that against the ABs. I think Libbok proved a point tonight, so glad he showed what he can do from the kicking tee. Apart from good momentum, this means little come world cup time. I hope the Boks keep their feet on the ground and continue playing like this
So Libbock CAN kick! His worth is more as a distributing game-running flyhalf. Boks have fantastic backs, and now a flyhalf and gameplan that actually uses them.
Two things from this game. First is the incredible pressure that the Boks put on NZ. I have never seen that in a test match. They just never allowed any room for the backs. Second is that NZ can hold their heads up as their defense was actually very good. I know that the score does not say so, but I can promise you, against another side, with that pressure from the Boks, they would have crumbled and the Boks would have scored 60 or 70.
Glad to see SA reminding everyone they're also a juggernaut and makes the 'who wins?' Conversation between NZ, France And Ireland interesting with SA firmly in that talk. What a world cup we're about to experience
That might be the best Bok forward performance since the RWC 2019 final. The AB's are a class outfit and they'll bounce back. Thanks to our Kiwi brothers for bringing the best out of the Boks. The AB's are the best test for any side in the world. All the best for the World Cup, unless you meet the Boks again.
I know Rassie and Jacques were waiting for this after Mount Smart. But I feel still much more in the tank for the boks. I also don't think any other team will beat this AB side.
I was at the game. The lads had a mini footy match as pre-game warm up it was so intense!! It was as if they are playing the first half against each other... if anyone cared to notice first 15 minutes they were grabbing water bottles as if its the 75th minute. it was crazy to watch..
That was one hell of a game. The memories of 57-0 are still there but this game definitely went some way to soothing those. NZ will 100% bounce back and I would be worried if I was France right about now. The ultimate take away is the rivalry is alive and well!! P.S. Thanks for the quick upload Mark, hope the rest of your Saturday is better than the morning.
I hope not. A Kiwi loss is a win for World Rugby, and if they lose two in a row NZ will lose their minds! The flurry of panic and excuses will come out and it will be hilarious! Kiwis can't handle losing
I was waiting for this review. The Boks played well, and NZ was rusty. I am enjoying the warm glow of a victory over our archrivals. Thank you to both teams for coming to the party.
Maximum respect for your quick uploads. Couldn't wait to hear what you had to say about this game. Good for Boks not so good for All Blacks. I'm sure they will learn and get better from this. Proudly SA
That lost look in the eyes was what made me worry most - you're 100% right. It looked like the Ireland series, where they just had no clue what to do to break the defence down.
The Bokke were sublime!🇿🇦🏆 This a tough one to swallow for ABs, but it is like good medicine and they will be back at RWC. Fantastic for the game of rugga!👏🏼
No one expected this one. Over the last two games my faith in Rassie and Jacques has gone from not much to through the roof. This is the definition of peaking at the right time.
I definitely did not expect this. Hats of to the team, coaches and Libbok! I am very happy he found his kicking boots, I was one of his doubters. He came good when he needed to. Respect. Take that form into the world cup!
Definitely the most dominant performance I have seen SA have over NZ in my lifetime. A joy to watch. But the ABs will bounce back, there is no question about that. It might serve to harden their resolve for the France game, so look out, France!
The ruthless and dominant Boks just reminded the world as to why they are the world champions . What a systematic and dismantling of an old foe..😂. 😅. That was a comprehensive beat down. What a great performance🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
Did not expect that at all, South Africa absolutely destroyed New Zealand and they were very lucky not to be nilled. Bit worried as an Irish fan when we take on the Springboks, that will be a brutal game. Looking forward to the world cup, think the AB's are a wounded animal and will be dangerous. I still see them as one of the favourites, but no doubt the Springboks made a big statement tonight.
I think one of the problems even with beating this springboks team is having enough quality players to still go on to win the rest of the matches. BRUTALITY
@@raymondhorn8041only the north was writhing you off here in nz we always know it’s a hard game with the boks and we already beat y’all convincingly the prior 2 games now 1 bad loss and we’re in trouble I mean it happens maybe not in this fashion but it does happen and we were up against a South African side that needed to win and save face it was always a uphill climb to beat SA BACK TO BACK
It's the North that's writing us off, somehow they believe the Boks will be knocked out in the group stages (mind boggling). Mna I just want to stay away from Nzl in the quarters and play France instead, french are having a lil dip and are not as scary as last year
I am loving the 7:1 bench. Rassie and Jaque are reinventing Rugby. Great game. The Boks are just starting to go through the gears. We still have a way to go in my opinion. As always nice summary of the game. I know your hurting TC so all credit to you. This was good medicine for the ABs. I am sure you will be back. Go Bokke 🇿🇦
Wow...the contrast between the Mt Smart game and this...Gotta say; Boks looked absolutely fantastic today...After the Championship I was thinking France and NZ the faves for the title but now...SA is gonna be real hard nut to crack for anyone..Go Scotland I guess and lets hope Big Jim's confidence turns out to be correct :)
And Willemse of all people??? Did I miss something and everyone is just polite. He sidestepped straight into people every time.. Except for when he needed to tackle Roigard he goosed himself.
Fuck man was there glass on the field? Honestly I hated this game before it started. Now NZ lost Barret probably for the WC, SA will possibly lose PSDT for some of the Pool games which will be a hard one but they do have the depth. Lomax injured, de Groot not looking great. Man what a stupid fixture. Fucking IRB knew this would happen.
An incredible performance from the Boks... WOW!! Smothered the AB's in most departments. The discipline from the All Blacks was atrocious and worrying from their perspective. I never thought there'd be an evolution of the bomb squad ... 7 forwards on the bench lol Bring on the WC
Half of those penalties were tenious at best. Northern refs just ref different things. Just not holding feet at the ruck. AB's got no answer if thats how the finals will be played/ref'ed
Yep, I was fascinated. Cast our minds back to the recent game where we were clueless for the first 20 minutes. Last night I saw a flustered All Black side. They normally do this to opposing teams. This time we did and kept up the heat for the entire match.
Wouldn't say incredible when you played against 13 14 for most of the game shouldve got over 50 with that advantage at least when NZ beat SA 57-0 it was 15 on 15 hundred times more impressive
Already thought the Springboks were scary (that scrum!!)facing Wales but now that is something else. I just felt relief when Roigard scored. Hope the injured will be back soon. As a French, I am expecting dangerous ABs for the opening match eager to prove that today was just one of these days...
Dude wtf was that. A last minute change dropping Willie and putting Kwagga on the bench... did they plan to do that all along? Did Willie get injured in training? If he did, why not replace him with another back like Kriel, who can play 15, or de allende? Makes me think this was mind games, intending to go 7-1 but not wanting to give anyone time to think about it
@@kristian762 I was baffled cause I found out right before the game but Kwagga man. That man can play fullback and I'd be at peace. ALMOST 😂 But jokes aside he is versatile enough to cover a lot of positions and luckily he only had to cover hos regular spot and was a standout.
Foster step directly into the trap, My lessons. 1. Scott Barret maybe received a red, but he and Ardi Servia were the only players standing up in this game. 2. The boks learned a lesson in Aukland, that they can beat this ABs 3. Do not for one moment write off this AB side. They will be dangerous 4. All 4 locks of the Boks is monstrous.
I just hope both the Springboks and the All Blacks win their groups. It would be a bummer if we encountered each other in the quarter-finals, that's too early. The best case would be if we play each other in the Final instead, provided we don't get knocked out along the way. This result is a massive boost for the Boks, but it's hard to make conclusions when it comes to these two teams. It was a great game of Rugby, proud of the Boks.
"I just hope both the Springboks and the All Blacks win their groups. It would be a bummer if we encountered each other in the quarter-finals" You can also get your wish if both finish second in their group, which may be more likely ;)
@@silversolver7809 Correct, I am aware of that option as well. However, winning the group is the best way to position yourself for a spot in the Final. Coming second in the group puts you against the winners instead of runners-up of the adjacent group, increasing the risk of an early knockout and reducing the likelihood of ending up in the final.
@@vantheman7068 for the sake of the Southern Hemisphere. The Trophy should never leave this sparsely populated hemisphere. We make up only 12% of the global population, yet we have an impeccable Webb Ellis record..
This is a world cup year. I saw in the 2nd Argentina game already that this team is definitely building up to spmething special at the world cup. People who understands Bok Rugby, Bok culture, knows how good Rassie and Jacques have been for the past 20 years. Just know that this Boks team will be much better than in 2019.
Sad I missed it! I was at a lodge meeting in the evening 😭 Mark, I truly appreciate your love of the game, rational takes and impartiality towards the teams. You are the rugby fan's Rugby fan.
Awesome channel. And as a South African, I'll say it; You guys rock and we absolutely respect you the most. Thanks for the game and best of luck in the WC🙏
As a Welshman, I feel so much better now 😂 but I would have never expected that result. Serious alarm bells for NZ, Ireland and Scotland must be bricking themselves after watching that.
Well done boks! Demolition job, but I do feel this result wouldn't make the springboks overwhelming favourites in a world cup knockout rematch, everything that could have gone wrong for the AB'S did go wrong. The Mbombela/Ellis park follow on proved that the AB'S have the ability to bounce back strong against all expectations, they will be back.
What a game. This was what I, as a lifelong Springbok fan, wanted to see for the longest time - the Boks evolving their game and adding back-line brilliance to traditional front row dominance. The forwards with set piece brutality supplemented by running rugby not just from the wings but now also the magic back three. This is Rassie and Nienaber really impacting South African rugby. It’s like moulding the Stormers with the Bulls. The Kiwis witnessed this come together at Twickenham and just weren’t prepared for it. Emotionally, I’m chuffed that we settled the score from Auckland and are reviving a head to head rivalry with the old foe. Yasssas I’m so pumped. World rugby - watch out. Die Bokke kom en donner!
Thanks for your swift review, I am sorry for your loss but I can't be more proud and grateful for such an epic game from the Bokke! I had a gut feeling about this win but obvs you don't know until you know.
Huge respect to the ABs as always, however I feel that SA was comfortable enough that they didn't need to put all their cards on the table, they just stuck to basic rugby and won, this is a huge plus as they didn't give the future opposition much to work with ( that they didn't already know). One concern though, we need to develop more of a killer instinct to put teams away. ABs could easily been in the game had one or two passes stuck. We left too many points on the field, same as in the Wales game.
Not to put too fine a point on it, but this for me was everything we have asked for and known we could be for 20 years. Dominate all aspects AND have speed, skill and width in the backline
Never expected that score but man SA just got in their face and smothered them over and over. Once the bomb squad came on they didn't look like the skipped a beat. NZ were made look toothless and just didn't have anything in attack. Telea though looked good so somethinh positive there.
Thanks for the quick upload, and this must have been a hard one to do. ... but every time New Zealand seems to be beaten in a match, they come back in the next stretch. Watch out France 🙂 Proud of how the Boks played, but need to be more clinical when we are so dominant. Hope the Springboks build on this. Hope Lomax's injury is just superficial ... Good luck against France!!!
What an amazing performance by the Boks.... The world is nervous now... As for the Mighty All Blacks. You'll be back this is a character building moment, I have no doubt you will learn from it.
Great to see with the celebrations SA looked very focused. Knowing that this is not what is about. Very low key celebrations. The job is not done yet and this means nothing in the big scheme of things.
SO I was at the game last night sitting next to a couple of AB supporters. These guys were hilarious and it was a fantastic atmosphere, very jovial even though they were under the cosh a bit there. Friendly guys, everyone having a laugh. Lots of sharing of concern for players and comparing notes on the game. Everyone was just happy to be there. I also attended the England Wales game a few weeks before and the atmosphere was night and day. The English supporters were..... angry. After the England game the whole stadium emptied very quickly. Last night I wonder if the security was getting ready to throw the remaining fans off the grounds as it was still heaving 2 hours after the final whistle.
As an all blacks win firstly i was disappointed with the performance of Abs . Brilliant play by boks. Saffas really played well. Congratulations 🎉🎉👏🎉 on the win bokke.
@@TwoCentsRugby I think your take was right on. Tulea, and Jordan in spots, looked good. Too bad about Scott Barrett. He was showing some dominant form the past few months. Mo'unga had a great try saver. He looked good in other spots as well. Tough to play pivot if you are constantly going backwards. Agree that a Bok forward should have taken MoTM.
Well played by the Boks. Absolutely terrifying to see 7 new forwards coming on. But from an ABs point of view, surely it's better this happens now and they get the learnings now, than to have it happen in the opening game against the hosts. Expected ban for SB?
@@TwoCentsRugbyNew Zealand are a class side as we all know, to be fair, NZ were not allowed to play and they are not used to that kind of pressure. SA were on fire! Bring on the WC !
You can try to insult our performance by blaming your team's discipline but the truth is it was the pressure we put on you that caused those penalties.
Their indiscipline was entirely due to the intense pressure from the Boks!.............I've been watching Rugby since 1969, and I've never seen an AB's team under such pressure!
You can tell he watches a lot of rugby the way he pronounces all the Afrikaans words correctly 😂 starting to get the pronunciation of the Polynesian names right myself. Lekker content keep it up 👍
One got the impression that AB's misread the ref completely. Are they too used to getting away with pushing the envelope?. Boks are used to Carley. Could this be decisive in World Cup?
As a South african all i can say is im in awe, best performance against the ABs that ive seen. Great time to hit form, even our goalkicking was on point... Excited for the RWC... Mind u this is the ABs best team in the world, they will be back

Mark Telea does look the business though. For me the ABs standout player. Esterhuizen was brutal in the middle too.
Key revelation that.
Telea should be a 12.
What a game. The boks were massive. If any team is even thinking about winning this world cup. They now know the standard required
Your detail and objectivity in your analysis after watching what must have been a difficult pill to swallow is wonderful to watch, thank you.

The Bokke were sublime!🇿🇦🏆
This a tough one to swallow for ABs, but it is like good medicine and they will be back at RWC.
Fantastic for the game of rugga!👏🏼
No one expected this one. Over the last two games my faith in Rassie and Jacques has gone from not much to through the roof. This is the definition of peaking at the right time.
Yeah man look out pool B!
Idk man we want to peak in the final not right now?
@@LB_die_Kaapie nah mate, last warm up game will give us crazy confidence against Scotland which is the most important group match
This is now Jacque's team.Allot more aggressive with ball in hand.
I definitely did not expect this. Hats of to the team, coaches and Libbok! I am very happy he found his kicking boots, I was one of his doubters. He came good when he needed to. Respect. Take that form into the world cup!
Definitely the most dominant performance I have seen SA have over NZ in my lifetime. A joy to watch. But the ABs will bounce back, there is no question about that. It might serve to harden their resolve for the France game, so look out, France!
Ready for it 😊🇨🇵👌
France will thrash lacklustre AB's. Put as much effort into actually playing non-cynical rugby as you do into the Haka then...maybe...just.
They were meant to be back already!!
The French better pray you don't meet the Boks... There's a massive pounding coming your way if we do! That's if you make it out the pool staged
@@RicksPhatPharm-vw2lb Will see! 😊
The ruthless and dominant Boks just reminded the world as to why they are the world champions . What a systematic and dismantling of an old foe..😂. 😅. That was a comprehensive beat down. What a great performance🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
Libbok was saving it for this game 😂
It sure looks like it! Respect to Libbok! I am very happy he found his kicking boots. Take this form into the world cup!
Very happy for him
Did not expect that at all, South Africa absolutely destroyed New Zealand and they were very lucky not to be nilled. Bit worried as an Irish fan when we take on the Springboks, that will be a brutal game. Looking forward to the world cup, think the AB's are a wounded animal and will be dangerous. I still see them as one of the favourites, but no doubt the Springboks made a big statement tonight.
I think one of the problems even with beating this springboks team is having enough quality players to still go on to win the rest of the matches. BRUTALITY
SA were unreal. Maybe Ireland are the only team on the planet that could beat them.
Everyone was writing us off the whole build up .. and this was NZ A team
@@raymondhorn8041only the north was writhing you off here in nz we always know it’s a hard game with the boks and we already beat y’all convincingly the prior 2 games now 1 bad loss and we’re in trouble I mean it happens maybe not in this fashion but it does happen and we were up against a South African side that needed to win and save face it was always a uphill climb to beat SA BACK TO BACK
It's the North that's writing us off, somehow they believe the Boks will be knocked out in the group stages (mind boggling). Mna I just want to stay away from Nzl in the quarters and play France instead, french are having a lil dip and are not as scary as last year
There was a lot of dog in those mongrel Boks tonight, Canine Moody, RG Schnauzer, Siya Collie-se.
Underrated comment :)
Lol well put
I am loving the 7:1 bench. Rassie and Jaque are reinventing Rugby.
Great game. The Boks are just starting to go through the gears.
We still have a way to go in my opinion.
As always nice summary of the game. I know your hurting TC so all credit to you. This was good medicine for the ABs.
I am sure you will be back.
Go Bokke 🇿🇦
Don't want them cheaters to bounce back. Seen enough over the years.
They are turning it to garbage. Mauls and scrums for 80mins.
That was how rugby was originally played otherwise play touch rugby or football. Man's world
Maybe NRL or Aussie rules for you@@nielvanderwalt1965
Bro the consistency at odd hours is nothing short of brilliance.👌✌
Wow...the contrast between the Mt Smart game and this...Gotta say; Boks looked absolutely fantastic today...After the Championship I was thinking France and NZ the faves for the title but now...SA is gonna be real hard nut to crack for anyone..Go Scotland I guess and lets hope Big Jim's confidence turns out to be correct :)
What does Frans malherbe need to do to win a MOTM.
And a zero would have been a beautiful thing
He is practising the dark arts in the pack. Not allowed to ever win motm.
Agreed.
@@davegale9088 Kick to poles?😆
Yeah, honestly MOTM should have been a forward. They broke the ABs, the backs just benefited from it
And Willemse of all people??? Did I miss something and everyone is just polite. He sidestepped straight into people every time.. Except for when he needed to tackle Roigard he goosed himself.
That cut on the knee looked nuts. Really hope he recovers
Would be very sad for him to miss games
As a Saffa I hope so too. That was so unlucky.
Fuck man was there glass on the field? Honestly I hated this game before it started. Now NZ lost Barret probably for the WC, SA will possibly lose PSDT for some of the Pool games which will be a hard one but they do have the depth. Lomax injured, de Groot not looking great. Man what a stupid fixture. Fucking IRB knew this would happen.
@@Slipperygecko390 PSDT only got a yellow though. He bent low and so did the other guy.
@@Slipperygecko390 nah I think both Barrett and PSDT will be clear to play. Hope Lomax is okay for you guys.
Yeah devastating for Lomax; looked like a boot clipped the skin and just tore it open. Not what you want to see at all.
An incredible performance from the Boks... WOW!! Smothered the AB's in most departments. The discipline from the All Blacks was atrocious and worrying from their perspective. I never thought there'd be an evolution of the bomb squad ... 7 forwards on the bench lol Bring on the WC
Half of those penalties were tenious at best. Northern refs just ref different things. Just not holding feet at the ruck. AB's got no answer if thats how the finals will be played/ref'ed
NZ been taking a leaf out of Wallabies book with discipline??
Yep, I was fascinated. Cast our minds back to the recent game where we were clueless for the first 20 minutes. Last night I saw a flustered All Black side. They normally do this to opposing teams. This time we did and kept up the heat for the entire match.
Wouldn't say incredible when you played against 13 14 for most of the game shouldve got over 50 with that advantage at least when NZ beat SA 57-0 it was 15 on 15 hundred times more impressive
@@martinbisschoff988SA always seem to do well against NZ in nothing games where nothings on the line 😂
Excellent review, by far the best from a NZ analyst. Not just on this game, but all the games played over the weekend.
Wow South Africa look deadly going into this World Cup, buzzing for the Ireland vs springboks group match should be a great game🇮🇪🇿🇦
Already thought the Springboks were scary (that scrum!!)facing Wales but now that is something else. I just felt relief when Roigard scored. Hope the injured will be back soon. As a French, I am expecting dangerous ABs for the opening match eager to prove that today was just one of these days...
Yep, they'll be coming at you guys hard to prove exactly that.
I expect the ABs to be out got blood. The opening match going to be amazing👌🏾
Kudos to you Mark for ALWAYS being objective. No wonder your channel is my favourite rugga channel. Best wishes from Safferland mate. 👍
Awesome! Thank you!
Imagine Rassie and Jacques decide to use the 7-1 split more often 😂
Dude wtf was that. A last minute change dropping Willie and putting Kwagga on the bench... did they plan to do that all along? Did Willie get injured in training? If he did, why not replace him with another back like Kriel, who can play 15, or de allende? Makes me think this was mind games, intending to go 7-1 but not wanting to give anyone time to think about it
@@kristian762 I was baffled cause I found out right before the game but Kwagga man. That man can play fullback and I'd be at peace. ALMOST 😂
But jokes aside he is versatile enough to cover a lot of positions and luckily he only had to cover hos regular spot and was a standout.
Somehow I think the best is yet to come. SA dominates this WC through 'hated' Rassie's genius.
@@kristian762Willie did get injured in training.
That would be awful for the game
Wowzers…I was not expecting that! 😬
Me neither!
I had a bad night at work seeing this this morning just made me feel better
That was THE final we can't possibly get this year! Amazing game (from a Saffa's pov)
Foster step directly into the trap,
My lessons.
1. Scott Barret maybe received a red, but he and Ardi Servia were the only players standing up in this game.
2. The boks learned a lesson in Aukland, that they can beat this ABs
3. Do not for one moment write off this AB side. They will be dangerous
4. All 4 locks of the Boks is monstrous.
Compared to NZ who now only have 1 lock who's any good and he's 34.
Their toast.
Is Brodie out the RWC?
I just hope both the Springboks and the All Blacks win their groups. It would be a bummer if we encountered each other in the quarter-finals, that's too early. The best case would be if we play each other in the Final instead, provided we don't get knocked out along the way. This result is a massive boost for the Boks, but it's hard to make conclusions when it comes to these two teams. It was a great game of Rugby, proud of the Boks.
"I just hope both the Springboks and the All Blacks win their groups. It would be a bummer if we encountered each other in the quarter-finals"
You can also get your wish if both finish second in their group, which may be more likely ;)
100% mate. We need a sa v nz final.
@@silversolver7809 Correct, I am aware of that option as well. However, winning the group is the best way to position yourself for a spot in the Final. Coming second in the group puts you against the winners instead of runners-up of the adjacent group, increasing the risk of an early knockout and reducing the likelihood of ending up in the final.
Best case? AB's take their years of cheating home with them pre semi's
@@vantheman7068 for the sake of the Southern Hemisphere. The Trophy should never leave this sparsely populated hemisphere. We make up only 12% of the global population, yet we have an impeccable Webb Ellis record..
love the content i cant watch other kiwi analyst videos, you are very humble
This is a world cup year. I saw in the 2nd Argentina game already that this team is definitely building up to spmething special at the world cup. People who understands Bok Rugby, Bok culture, knows how good Rassie and Jacques have been for the past 20 years. Just know that this Boks team will be much better than in 2019.
Scary prospect... being better than last time. Why don't SA play like this every game ?
Sad I missed it! I was at a lodge meeting in the evening 😭
Mark, I truly appreciate your love of the game, rational takes and impartiality towards the teams. You are the rugby fan's Rugby fan.
Dude, was telling my mate I can't wait for your vid on this in the morning. But you already posted? Legend. From SA, I did not see that one coming.
Awesome channel. And as a South African, I'll say it; You guys rock and we absolutely respect you the most. Thanks for the game and best of luck in the WC🙏
As a Welshman, I feel so much better now 😂 but I would have never expected that result. Serious alarm bells for NZ, Ireland and Scotland must be bricking themselves after watching that.
I agree as a welsh fan it looks better aswell as we are in transition and experimenting 😂
@@morgandunn8163 My thoughts as well!
I doubt it. NZ, Ireland, France and Scotland will have loads to look at in video analysis. Strange that SA showed such a strong hand today.
did anyone get the penalty count? Why no penalty kicks AB?
You can't read too much into this game. Nzl had a off day. 🇿🇦 Boks will get better. As well as the Kiwis.
Missed the game but all I'm gonna say is, Well Done Boks and I look forward the 100k views you'll get on this 2C 😂❤ LIKE THE VIDEO!!
Lol yeah man the Boks were just on another level in this one
We're over 130k views and a good chunk of those are mine 😅
As a Scots fan im bricking it, SA looked so dominant in that match, insane pressure. How does any team combat that?
Same here as a Ireland supporter. I can smell it already.
Lads, remember we step up for this nz game. But, we are coming for you. Best of luck
Play a 8-0 bench🤷🏽♂️
Still can’t see them beating Ireland. This was a warm up game
inetlligence situationelle et évittement. Good luck though...
Thank you for your objectiveness.
Well done boks! Demolition job, but I do feel this result wouldn't make the springboks overwhelming favourites in a world cup knockout rematch, everything that could have gone wrong for the AB'S did go wrong. The Mbombela/Ellis park follow on proved that the AB'S have the ability to bounce back strong against all expectations, they will be back.
Back in black 😂
Man.. I really love your reviews and breakdowns.. 1st thing I youtubed after the game
I appreciate that!
I cannot wait to watch The Breakdown on Monday 🇿🇦
O jire self😂
AMEN TO THAT BROTHER
Pundits going to call for rugby laws to change again!
91k views, congrats. Terrific review, as always
This game was absolutely the best game to watch from a South African bar
What a game. This was what I, as a lifelong Springbok fan, wanted to see for the longest time - the Boks evolving their game and adding back-line brilliance to traditional front row dominance. The forwards with set piece brutality supplemented by running rugby not just from the wings but now also the magic back three. This is Rassie and Nienaber really impacting South African rugby. It’s like moulding the Stormers with the Bulls.
The Kiwis witnessed this come together at Twickenham and just weren’t prepared for it.
Emotionally, I’m chuffed that we settled the score from Auckland and are reviving a head to head rivalry with the old foe.
Yasssas I’m so pumped. World rugby - watch out. Die Bokke kom en donner!
So proud and ecstatic right now😊🇿🇦
Thanks for your swift review, I am sorry for your loss but I can't be more proud and grateful for such an epic game from the Bokke! I had a gut feeling about this win but obvs you don't know until you know.
Huge respect to the ABs as always, however I feel that SA was comfortable enough that they didn't need to put all their cards on the table, they just stuck to basic rugby and won, this is a huge plus as they didn't give the future opposition much to work with ( that they didn't already know). One concern though, we need to develop more of a killer instinct to put teams away. ABs could easily been in the game had one or two passes stuck. We left too many points on the field, same as in the Wales game.
great summary as per usual .. you have a gift ! wish we could all be as unbiased and keen on reporting the game as it is played .. kudos ..
Not to put too fine a point on it, but this for me was everything we have asked for and known we could be for 20 years. Dominate all aspects AND have speed, skill and width in the backline
I hope our teams meet again in the wc final! 🏆🇿🇦🔥 Merci Bokcoup
The thing is. The scoreline flattered NZ. Incredible performance from SA.
Well that worked, looking forward to hearing from Tony🇿🇦🤘🏻
Never expected that score but man SA just got in their face and smothered them over and over. Once the bomb squad came on they didn't look like the skipped a beat. NZ were made look toothless and just didn't have anything in attack. Telea though looked good so somethinh positive there.
The Moodie try 😮, he was never offside his hand was holding on in the ruck 🤔
… Boy oh boy can’t wait to see more of that kid 🤞🏾🔥
Thanks for the quick upload, and this must have been a hard one to do.
... but every time New Zealand seems to be beaten in a match, they come back in the next stretch. Watch out France 🙂
Proud of how the Boks played, but need to be more clinical when we are so dominant. Hope the Springboks build on this.
Hope Lomax's injury is just superficial ... Good luck against France!!!
Always impressed by the factual and unbiased reviews. Always my ‘go-to’. Keep up the great work!
Canan Moodie 😍😍😍 amazing
Love the honesty....can learn a lot from you!!
What an amazing performance by the Boks.... The world is nervous now... As for the Mighty All Blacks. You'll be back this is a character building moment, I have no doubt you will learn from it.
Refs finally noting their BS cynical play. Decades late.
What a dominant performance by south africa. They had all the possession. That ref was really good imo
Great to see with the celebrations SA looked very focused. Knowing that this is not what is about. Very low key celebrations. The job is not done yet and this means nothing in the big scheme of things.
Yeah man just another step on the road to the world cup, despite the massive scoreline
SO I was at the game last night sitting next to a couple of AB supporters. These guys were hilarious and it was a fantastic atmosphere, very jovial even though they were under the cosh a bit there. Friendly guys, everyone having a laugh. Lots of sharing of concern for players and comparing notes on the game. Everyone was just happy to be there.
I also attended the England Wales game a few weeks before and the atmosphere was night and day. The English supporters were..... angry. After the England game the whole stadium emptied very quickly. Last night I wonder if the security was getting ready to throw the remaining fans off the grounds as it was still heaving 2 hours after the final whistle.
So unbiased thanks Mark we were really obliterated … we will come back for sure
Excellent analysis as always……I’m in shock,it looked like men against boys out there,didn’t see that coming.
That was South Africa in pretty devastating form.
Great game and great review! Till next time! 👍🏻
As an all blacks win firstly i was disappointed with the performance of Abs . Brilliant play by boks. Saffas really played well. Congratulations 🎉🎉👏🎉 on the win bokke.
Love the Cheetah cap right on top on the shelf, good honest review as a bok supporter quite a fan of the channel.
Did not expect that!
Dominant man, utterly
@@TwoCentsRugby I think your take was right on. Tulea, and Jordan in spots, looked good. Too bad about Scott Barrett. He was showing some dominant form the past few months. Mo'unga had a great try saver. He looked good in other spots as well. Tough to play pivot if you are constantly going backwards. Agree that a Bok forward should have taken MoTM.
Love your show brother. The ABs will bounce back hard in the tournament. Much love from SA
Well played by the Boks. Absolutely terrifying to see 7 new forwards coming on. But from an ABs point of view, surely it's better this happens now and they get the learnings now, than to have it happen in the opening game against the hosts. Expected ban for SB?
Thanks for the humility, best rugby RUclipsr out there
Honestly did not expect NZ to play this badly in an international match and especially againsts the Boks. Discipline was so bad today
Yeah man pressure, so much pressure
@@TwoCentsRugbyNew Zealand are a class side as we all know, to be fair, NZ were not allowed to play and they are not used to that kind of pressure. SA were on fire! Bring on the WC !
I dont think the All Blacks played 'badly'. I feel like the all blacks were just demolished and not allowed to play.
You can try to insult our performance by blaming your team's discipline but the truth is it was the pressure we put on you that caused those penalties.
Their indiscipline was entirely due to the intense pressure from the Boks!.............I've been watching Rugby since 1969, and I've never seen an AB's team under such pressure!
You can tell he watches a lot of rugby the way he pronounces all the Afrikaans words correctly 😂 starting to get the pronunciation of the Polynesian names right myself. Lekker content keep it up 👍
One got the impression that AB's misread the ref completely. Are they too used to getting away with pushing the envelope?. Boks are used to Carley. Could this be decisive in World Cup?
Historic win for S.A. 🏆🏈
Yes, yes and yes. And they couldn't cheat with this shitty ref. Get some.
Yes I believe they are too used to getting away with it
Good point. Super rugby reffing is a joke, all sorts of nonsense is ignored.
As a South african all i can say is im in awe, best performance against the ABs that ive seen. Great time to hit form, even our goalkicking was on point... Excited for the RWC... Mind u this is the ABs best team in the world, they will be back
