He's never buying a pint again! Absolute poetry in motion.
I tried to pay with poetry in motion and got told to sling my hook.
@@joshuataylor3550 🤣🤣
Don't you mean a Castle lager?
Saffas do not drink beer they are lager drinkers and drinkers of lager that comes from their own country.
@@mludsladiesgentlemen1774 in what world are lagers not a type of beer?
@@andrasszabo1570 Beer is ale. Lager is a ladies drink. Drunk by ladies and men that come from hot countries like South Africa, NZ, Australia, Italy, Spain, Portugal and France. NOT Scotland, at least not if they are real men.
Probably a nominee for try of the year!
In the running....but World Cup year ahead ;)
Also worst attempt off a tackle off the year !
@@SignificantWines Absolutely was the try of the year only question is try of all time
It won 👍
It doesn’t matter if you are a die hard England fan, that was pure class. What a treat to watch.
The momentum he generates from those first few strides is elite level.
Absolutely mental acceleration
Brings Scottish tears to my Afrikaans eyes!
Very very true
As a Kiwi that try reminds a lot of the late Jonah Lomu .. blinding speed, very deceptive sidestep, power and strength in fending off tackles, sheer determination to beat opponents. Such an exceptional talent.
Yeah he’s got an unbelievable step for a big bloke!
Fending off tackles... Are you shittin me 🤣🤣🤣
As a Kiwi that should remind you of John Kirwan's (Sir John Kirwan) try against Italy.
It's always England that suffers as well. 🤣
@@blairrobert3438 Sadly no sidestepping or fending involved. In 1995 Lomu beat Carling, ran through Underwood and ran over Catt.
Mooi so Duhan van der Merwe. Jy is 'n doring !!!!!
Hy is yster!
The ball swop from right hand to left hand at the last tackle is boggling
Best part of that try. How he saw the threat from the right, swapped hands, and handed him off in that time is incredible.
Which tackle? Lol
It was like a magic trick… Blink and you’ll miss it.
Almost pure instinct
Tackle ! He pushed over the line !
THIS MUST BE THE TRY OF THE YEAR SO FAR!!!
Yes. But 1 game into the year is a small sample size.
It may well be THE try of the year. There is a world cup, so we're probably going to see some extraordinary shit, but even so, it will still make top 5 come year end.
@@rahowherox1177 wheesht
As a South African obviously Boks are my team...but I seriously hope Scotland finally deliver at a world cup... so always my no2 team to support....
Thats a bit of a problem since they are in the same pool, not even including the rank 1 team in the world :(
Hard to deliver against Ireland and South Africa they are probably the 2 teams in the world Scotland would struggle against most due to the physicality.
@@monsieur9743 Pool B is quite the tough one.... we will see how they do against Ireland in March..
@@Mike5612Skate Pool B will be very tough, but such is the nature of WC, either you make it on the day or you not good enough to win the trophy... Hopefully Scotland has a great 6 nations and takes out Ireland in March and the way Italy got so close to beating France should mean Scotland in with a great chance... over all I reckon we in for an incredibly competetive World Cup with any of the top 9 being able to win on the day vs the rest... would be great if Japan pull a suprise vs England and France beat the All Blacks.... I was in France for the All Blacks game in 2007... was brilliant.... not at the stadium but a village pub in the Alps..
@@SignificantWines Oof I am jealous, I tried getting match tickets for France 2023 but its almost impossible. I also hope Argentina do well this RWC, I tip them to go beat either Wales or Australia in the QF.
That is not just a mic drop moment, that is one of the great sporting moments of the century!
😂😂😂😂😂
Lol!
I think the child-like defence detracts from it.
@@brentmeistergeneral6074 it detracts from it, really? 🤡
That might be a tad over the top
He’s now the most valuable winger and world rugby. Unreal
The top down aerial view is interesting as you see VDM choose to run away from the big gap towards the England player, probably to keep him stationary and not gain any momentum before darting away last minute. Such clever play
Absolutely Brilliant, the initial sprint sheer class, an iconic moment.
Try of the Decade boys!!!
Incredible speed and momentum, and Switching the ball from right to left hand for a hand off right before scoring the try is out of this world!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Everything about that was pure. What an amazing try.
Apart from the shockingly bad defending
If I'm ever sad in the future I'll just come back and watch this video and it'll put a grin right back on my face
I love the way that he transfers the ball from his right hand to his left hand for the split second that he has to hand-off Dombrandt.
Best Scotland performance in a good while. World cup here we go!
Scots have beaten us 5x out of past 6 years!!!!!
It really wasn't, they were ok but not great. Gave England far too much ball and territory.
South Africa doesn't let teams off the hook like this. And you happen to be in a pool with us and Ireland. There's no way Scotland is getting to the knock-out stages.
I see that you are new to Scottish rugby. We'll probably proceed to lose to Wales and Italy.
@@endieposts deffo not Wales or Italy. 😂
I only played Rugby for 40 years and that is the best try I’ve ever seen. Cheers and I’m gunna have another beer.
One of the greatest try’s I’ve ever seen. He went through 5 England players.
tries
No he went around them which is even more amazing.. 😊
That try was a thing of beauty. 🏴
🇿🇦 *
The amazing skill to switch the ball from right to left in order to push off the last defender...great presence of mind!
Schon jetzt ein heißer Anwärter auf den Try of the Year 2023. Super-Stark! 🤩
Genau!
My favourite try of all time. Commentary makes it perfect!
I’m privileged to say I was there!! An all time great scottish try, iconic!!
Van Der McMerwe?
Incredible try. When Duhan started his run, he saw a gap, then he just improvised on the fly. Five players beaten. Try of the championship candidate for sure.
Best of the Six Nations for a very long time💯
Incredible try! It was a great game to watch.
incredible? So you don't believe it?
@@1unsung971 Hah! I certainly do.
O try mais lindo que eu já vi na minha vida
The noise from the crowd was amazing. You could easily have been mistaken that it was at Murrayfield.
It so reminded me of the great Jonah Lomu.
He went through the ENTIRE team. Well done lad! Absolutely magnificent. 🏴🏴🏴
No he didn't. He beat 5 or 6 players, that's 33% of the team. Let's not succumb to the urge to exaggerate
@@1unsung971 ur a bit of a spoil sport aren’t you
@@ghostestateagent6108 You are not very bright are you?
Lovely bit of niggle from Russel giving it some to Faz in the background (between the posts at 1:20) 😂
What a try / all the steps + then the hand-off at the end - unreal!! 👏
He scored a hatrick yesterday against England, all the text book tries😂🎉
It was a thing of beauty and I'm enjoying every second of this. Scotland owns part of the MLR team Old Glory DC, so I love this team now
L' essai du siècle ! Vive l'Ecosse libre !
merci!🏴🇫🇷
His foot-work is so good along with long-stride and fast cadence, then throw in size/strength to fend off high tackles at the end to make the distance.
He does not have a long stride!!! He does have high leg speed.
@@1unsung971 See his side-steps, they're huge.
@@commentarytalk1446 That's not what you commented. His lateral movement is not "huge." At that speed, Huge sidesteps are not possible. Cf Christian Cullen, who did have "a long Stride" and a significicant side step. Physics does not change on the sports field, no matter how excited we are by seemingly "incredible" feats of mechanics. The hysteria here is like a Boy band concert of teenage girls; embarrassing hyperbole and wet trousers.
@@1unsung971 Excuse me his stride length also applies to his side-step and it is a huge side-step and he can use goose-step using a long-stride too. The rest of your comment is 100% Trolling and useless.
@@commentarytalk1446 You are not smart enough to have an informed discussion about how wrong you are. Just know that you are not an expert and your comments are worthless. You know little or nothing about gait or physics. Grow up and do some reading before you gush in your pants and make a fool of yourself again.
Best Scottish Try since, Tony Stanger in the Grand Slam decider in 1990!! 🎤 🏴🏴🏴
Shame he's not Scottish....
@@YCCC1963 Who? Tony Stanger was born in Hawick 🏴🏴🏴
@@rambojp73 Not Stanger.....
van de Merve 🤣🤣🤣
@@YCCC1963 Really!! Don't care, which Country is benefiting from it? 😎🏴🏴🏴
@@YCCC1963 why is it a shame he is not Scottish? Surely if he plays for South Africa then you can say "shame he is not Scottish" but he plays for Scotland, in no way is it a hindrance 🤣😂🤣🎤🏴🏴🏴
Monstrous!
Almost like someone hit the fast forward button once he took off
Love the shoulder and taunt Finn gives Fazz at 1min 23secs while Duhan's running in his first. Priceless 🤣
Good spot!
My mate noticed it, I've just watched this looking for it! Cheeky Finn!
This was poor
1:44 switching the ball from right to left arm in a split second to use the right arm to hand off the last guy Is insane🙌
Magnifique ! 😉👍😉👍
That hand off at the end was so forceful it pushed him over the line like a rocket pack!
That's not the whole story. Physics involves the speed and force of the #8 attempting to tackle van Der Merwe. Let's not ascribe all the work to the winger, although it was indeed a freakish try. Sport is replete with chance and randomness, ie LUCK. This footage is further proof of that.
@@1unsung971 Suggest you go to spec savers mate if you think that that was not pure skill and talent and ability.. Absolute joy to watch..
@@TheLRiderYou didn't read my comment and think deeply on what I said. I suggest you think harder and longer before making a fool of yourself next time.
England having a tough time against Saffas hey. haha
That last tackle, less said the better.
Great footwork!!!
Nothing better than watching Finn chase after that English Twat who was playing 12 😂
Sir your comment is pure gold
Incredible try.
Brilliant at 1:21 Finn Russell smashing into Owen Farrell off the ball and goading him 🤣
Poor sportsmanship
Finn mistakenly thought Farrell had been gobbling off at him at a previous ruck. There's an interview on RUclips explaining it, and he admittedly said it wasn't him but probably Marchant.
Beautiful Try!!
Van der Merwe was born and grew up in George in the Western Cape province of South Africa. He attended and played rugby for Hoërskool Outeniqua, earning several provincial colours by representing the SWD Eagles at youth tournaments. In 2011, he represented SWD at the Under-16 Grant Khomo Week held in Queenstown, appearing in all three matches and scoring a try in their 25-8 victory over KwaZulu-Natal.[2]
One of the best ever tries
What a classic Scottish name
Mac Der Merwe.
Amazing Try. That Owen Farrell tackle 0:03 was great. England Captain fights like a warrior.
Scorcher, try of the year so far, amazing footwork & speed by the big man
His change of direction while keeping the speed was amazing for such a big guy. More Lions Caps me thinks.
This solo try is legendary
wonderful try ..superbe from france
I’m not gonna lie, I got excited watching this!!!
Eww 💦
I just love how the comentator runs sharply out of breath with what he hopes might happen and then does... 1.40 and the puppy dog yelp from the Scotish comentator in the back ground.... Wonderous try and what was that for an excuse of a tackle by the English No. 8 at the end....
The commentator is Irish.
@@Greenockianx he's talking about the other commentator who's Scottish
one of the best tries you will ever see!
Glad to see south africans shine even if it's for a different country
Anatomie d'un exploit! D'un chef d'oeuvre! D'une mystification absolu!!!!! Et Penaud peut le reproduire...
Proudly South African!!!
Finn Russell running to find Farrell and bam him up in the background 😂 wonder what he said to him??
Farrell had put int a couple monstrous hits on him before and had a shit eating grin - think it was just a wee bit of revenge. Fair play to both for a bit of shitehousery
Missed it watching the game but caught it later, it was a fine bit of shithousery 👍🏼
Typical Farrell and I have to say watching Finn get the last laugh is poetic justice for sure
Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries.
Nice one Robbie, hadn’t noticed that before now … 😃😎🏴
Un essai de légende !
That's what u expect from a South African 🇿🇦
Even as an English fan I love to see this try, it is pure skill.
Goosebumps 😮
What a great try !
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
What a try , try of the decade
Just noticed a couple of things I indvertantly missed during the alcohol fuelled celebration.
1. The Ref doesn't shout "Advantage Over" following Russell's knock on.
2. There's defo a "passive" block where Duhan breaks 1st line of defence. - (not sure it made any difference).
Nothing can detract however from a wonderful individual Try scored by a remarkable athlete. The media are rightfully creaming themselves over this. Would we as an audience not rather watch this type of play over endless scrums ?
Lastly - my thanks to Dombrandt for missing a tackle he really should have made. But for that we might not be watching this again and again and again.
I'd love to see a few crowd reactions as well
twinkle toes....that try was like a NFL touch down
Gormless kick. Ball in space run at the defence. Easy peasy. A simple game. Brilliant 🎉
I'm glad to see these pointless kicks punished.
@@lukec2226 Absolutely - can think of so many fantastic trys that started from such rubbish. Run, run, run!!!!
Road Runner "beep beep".
It just gets better from every angle.
This is Duhan's world and we're just living in it.
The solo try of the year.
The 2nd one was a team effot, this was all him.
Pure Dead Brilliant!
Some great work by the camera operators.
Bravo, essai fantastique
The best rugby union try in history.
At the time I was annoyed england conceded but looking back at it now have to say probably going to be the try of the six nations
100% - bad tackling aside, what duane did was almost unbelievable
It was amazing hopefully scotland have more wonder tries like that
@@quins8668 I think they will have. The backline is as good as any going forward and their defence was very decent too.
I could watch this all day long. I wonder what Bill Mclaren would have said on the commentary or what nickname he would have given him :-)
0:37 Duhan in in the limelight, but this is George Turner's try!!! 🤣
Not sure what accelerated faster...Duhans legs or the commentators voice haha
That was a worldie! 😮💨
He will never buy another pint in Scotland.
As a kiwi watching this 😅wow one of the best tries ever no doubt
Fantastic, superb , unbelievable
Wonderful running sir. Bravo.
Fantastic gas ! ❤❤❤
The gas is unreal for such a big dude too
What a try
Up there with basketball as one of the greatest TEAM games. But then, always room for stunning individualism.
Mic drop moment indeed!
back again .. this is great viewing.. anyone know how to make the first commentary a ring tone?
Yep
