Thank you very much. I will be covering the URC final this weekend and then my attention all goes on International Test matches. There are some humdingers coming up.
Thanks Mark, I believe Rassie wants to focus on the internationals between the world cup as the Boks record could be better in that regard. Also, prior to professionalism in Rugby the Boks and the All blacks used to be neck on neck with percentage wins. Again that has moved in the All Backs favour over the last few decades. Hence Rassie wanting to close that gap. Hope he stays as coach for the foreseeable future.
And rassie is more focussed on 2027 for the triple . We shall see when they get to the lessor important rugby championships Oz NZ later. May as well put the sharks in for Portugal
hey Mark, thanks for your confidence in our bok team, but i think the match will be a lot closer. Boks are short on many unavailable players and remember that this is our first match since the WC. whatever the result, lets hope its a great test. Wales are more than capable of an upset.
The problem with the Boks is that when we expect a drubbing of the opposition they tend to not take it up a notch and just scratch pass to get a win. Hopefully that won't be the case, even so I just want to see some proper rugby being played by the Green&Gold and I'll be satisfied. Boks by 7
Hi Mark, welcome back. Of course, the devil you don't know can be full of surprises. Looks like Libbok's kicking kept him outside. Hope so. I hope Sacha FM comes on early. I am not sold on Fassi and Hendriks. Sacha can play from both their positions and will set this game alight.
Howzit Mark will be following you for the international season good to have you back- best way to remember to pronounce Sashas surname Mngomezulu is mmm-go-me-zulu! Worked for me😂
Even with the injuries and unavailable players for the Boks, on paper they look too strong for the unexperienced Wales team. I heard Wales has 118 caps, Etzebeth alone has 119. Boks are bringing in some new players mixed with experienced players, the Boks depth is ridiculous with some of the upcomming newbies, it's going to become very difficult to select a Bok squad in the near future with so many fighting for certain positions. To think they have no Bulls players in the squad. For Wales though, they always give it 100% and Gatland is no stranger to the Springboks.
@user-qe1tv1bu2f Luckily the Boks have learnt not to have windgatitude before a game. Seems most people are predicting a Bok win of 20 to 30 points but even if that were the case, how much can Wales take from this game before going up against Australia, it will benefit Wales. Wales always make it tough for the Boks, they just don't have the players ATM.
Eben etsebeth has 118 caps, entire welsh pack combined 114 caps. What is there to say. I sincerely hope every ball called mark by the boks is a scrum called for. Gatlin wanted scrum rules changed, may this be a crime scene and the welsh 1000 yard stares be rampant. 🎉🎉🎉😂😂
Hi Mark, I am off to Twickenham to watch the Springboks. I am very interested to see the influence of Tony Brown, as a player I thought he was very good. What do you think he brings to the coaching set up?
Hola, how was the game, did you enjoy it? Tony will bring a lot to the team, him and Rassie seem to have a great connection and I think he will help the Bokkies to unlock that open flare and huge talent in another way.
Looks like W Gatland is still looking at the youngsters this summer I dont believe Wales will win any test matches this summer I feel that S.Costelow isn't yet international class and the squad as a whole is just too unexperienced and lightweight to really trouble S.Africa or Australia
Thanks for the comment. I am with you on this. I think Joe Schmidt will turn Australia around and they will be tougher in 2024. BUT I believe in what Gatland is doing, he needs to give the younger guys this experience as painful it may be. On Costelow, agree.
Good to have you back Mark
Thank you Sir, good to be back.
Indeed good to see and hear you again Mark.
Thank you very much.
Great to see u again, really enjoyed your podcast during the world cup

Nice point, thanks for making it. A good strategy if that is the case, every game these days is important one way or another in my opinion.
Actually, the boks were 2-3 games ahead most of the time.
And rassie is more focussed on 2027 for the triple . We shall see when they get to the lessor important rugby championships Oz NZ later. May as well put the sharks in for Portugal

May the winner be rugby, indeed. Thanks for the comment. Mapimpi to score the first try, there you go :-)

Good point mate. Lets see how they come together, I suspect they will do very well.
Sacha Feinberg…watch this boy. Super talented in 10, 12 and 15 with a killer kicking boot
I will be watching, thanks for the comment

Thank you Toby. Yes Libboks omission is a statement I believe, lets see. Fassi to score the first try, there you go, heard it here first :-)
Mark ek dog jy het verdwyn! Welkom terug! Ek is opgewonde oor die nuwe spelers vir die Springbokke! Groete uit LIma Peru!
Net 'n kort pouse my vriend in Lima. Ja, daar lê lekker rugby voor en mag rugby die wenner wees
@@insiderugbywithmark Ek stem saam! Bly jy is terug.Groete!
With all that cartel news coming out of Mexico I was a bit worried about you...glad to see you back..Go Bulls...Go Bokke
Thanks mate, all good. Preview video coming tomorrow on Bulls v Glasgow game and I will share my views on that one.
Feiberg-Mongozulu, what a tongue twister for Mark😂😂
Sure is mate, would welcome some help on that one so I dont butcher it.
Howzit Mark will be following you for the international season good to have you back- best way to remember to pronounce Sashas surname Mngomezulu is mmm-go-me-zulu! Worked for me😂
Kiwi Attack Coach input in the Bokes team would be great to watch....

Huge depth, great talents, amazing skills, watch out world. Thanks for the comment.
Gatlin is going to a mental home after sat

Sir Ian Botham Grandson in action for Wales
What his name?
Really love your channel Mark ( and i work on my english at the same time), i hope you will make a video about the top14 final.
Thank you very much, I am working on my english as well. :-)
Springboks...will have to come out as World Champions.....and Whales must do themselves a world of good....
Thanks for the comment, lets see how it rolls.
Wales, there are lots of whales in the ocean, non of them play rugby.
Eben etsebeth has 118 caps, entire welsh pack combined 114 caps.
What is there to say.

I hear you mate, thanks for the comment
Bokke by 10 - 15 points, nice to get the rustyness over before Ireland
I suspect it will be a good blowout for the Boks and a chance for Rassie to keep his eye on a few guys
Just a recommendation. If you are posting a video thats longer than 10 min, try putting in time stamps, especially if you have distinct topics.
Hey great feedback thanks for providing it.
Great to see Marx back!! He's gonna eat some puppy chow and score a try.
Yes, it is great to see him back. Thanks for the comment

So NO Kitshoff, Arendse, Am, Moodie, Willie, Kolisi etc.. what depth..
NO WILLEMSE
Lol..Libbok
Frightening really, amazing depth, and what an opportunity to give the newer guys some time against international competition.
Keep the under 50 points, score at least one try in each half and not get to embarrassed 😳. Gobeithio!
Lets see
I glad you are ok! I was worried about you.
Thanks Michael, all good, just wanted a break.
Bro, are you on a boat?
FORZA BOKKE!!
FORZA BULLS!!
No mate, been there done that, lived on a boat for 4 years.
@@insiderugbywithmarkHopefully it wasn't the "Ping Shin".
👏🏻🍻🇿🇦
Beware of over confidence. Wales in experience will be their downfall.
The leeks are going to get planted deep
The Welshmen will be monstered up front,where is the Bokkie red haired prop at the Bulls?
Kitshoff is off having a KitKat .
Kitsie is injured.
Looks like W Gatland is still looking at the youngsters this summer I dont believe Wales will win any test matches this summer I feel that S.Costelow isn't yet international class and the squad as a whole is just too unexperienced and lightweight to really trouble S.Africa or Australia
