  • It's FAR more than the 80 minutes when it comes to a game at Loftus Versfeld. I've learned that much very quickly. There's nowhere quite like this - certainly not anywhere I've been to anyway.

      Probably needs to take a leaf from Jordan Buhr's book and carry a beer tin in one hand for the pre-match interviews, just so's he fits in with the general ambience.

Really captures the excitement - almost as good as being there. I saw you were also taking lots of footage down there, so hope you will share more of it. It looks like you were both having such a blast. It is coverage like that that really sets you apart from mainstream sport broadcasters and even from other rugby RUclipsrs!!

    Been a subscriber since last year - Henceforth, thy shall be known as "Eggmaster"😂😂😂 It was a hard game, though I correctly expected the Boks to be a bit rusty after the long break. The Irish defense was immense - respect! They will have to be better next game as the Boks get into their stride again... Pollard had one of his off days with the boot - but our defence in that channel suddenly cracked a bit when he was replaced, leading to an easy try. But that will be sorted soon.
