What do you make of the team selected by Rassie Erasmus?
@ForeverSports if it goes wrong it's a massive F up. I'm nervous! Rassie is right more often than he is wrong so I can't wait to see how this team performs. The way I see it, Australia will be happy with this team, and that's a worry.
@@AesyrbaneAustralian rugby is in shambles I am not at all worried. We going to spank them again. Plus we saving our best players for the All Blacks particularly after they were humble by the pumas
Disrespect... All the motivation Joe and the boys need...
@@Aesyrbanemaybe the aussies will have a false sense of security when they look at the team. But in all honesty these boks look hungry and dangerous
@@izakcelliers7307 This is what I call Long Term planning for 2027!!
English Afrikaans and Xhosa in one press conference.... And everyone is comfortable with that.. I am so inspired, no wonder our kids are dreaming of becoming Springboks from early age. Please Africans, let's protect this team, a symbol of hope and rainbow
The Springboks is a shining example of what we as South Africans can accomplish if we strive towards a common goal. This is Mandela's rainbow nation. If each and every South African is able to embrace different backgrounds and cultures like these guys do South Africa will be the greatest country in the world.
It is so nice to hear different languages in the press conference. I love my country. 🇿🇦❤
💯
You are damn right!
Love it - we have a squad and with all the rugby be played you need depth - think Rassie is building something special
Brilliant, a dynasty is being built, name another team that can do similar
yeah man , couldnt have said it better myself.
Glad Aphelel Fassi is getting a chancento play
He is such an exciting player. I remain uncertain whether he can fill Willie's shoes. But such a talent deserves the chance to show us that he is capable of delivering on the big stage.
Good to give the B team a run against a minnow 😂…just joking. Will be good to see some of the other guys get a start hopefully we not underestimating Aussies comeback performance.
Another Ellis park gamble by Rassie let hope he gets lucky
Fassi is a find like Sasha. I love his maturity and sensible way.
Are you a bot? Fassi is already 26 years old and was first capped by the Boks three years ago.
@@ethancroft5512Duan became a regular age 27 I get it Fassi is capped but went back to his franchise to fix his game . Mani got capped at what age ?
@andilentobekomadlala5227 Manie got capped at 25..He came off the bench against France.Willemse played flyhalf at the time.
He is not the same kind of generational break out talent like SFM. But he is still damn exciting and deservant of a shot to prove himself. Willie will probably not play the next world cup and Willemse cannot be our only fullback.
South Afrca doesn't have B teams, we have a Springbok team for the weekend. Any of these players can make a break and score a try. Very dangerous rassie team. Rassie wasn't joking when he said the Portugal Springboks team could go hit for hit against the Ireland Springboks team. The problem is who do you choose after this team wins Australia 50-0.
Beats, not wins
@@BiltonginParis oh no, the grammar police is on the site!

Great....good cover in all positions.😃
Makes sense - You don't win a battle and loose the war - NZ is in the future. Modern Rugby is a marathon. Not a sprint. It will be good for SA to give players a rest. More players Experience. The game will be more competitive, and I guess that is a good thing.
SA literally can make a 2nd team of guys that would at least make a World Cup knockout stages and even win a game. The talent seems endless.
The springboks have an incredible squad depth in every position. What a treasure to have for South Africans, and what a good problem to have for Rassie.😂
10 changes initially worried me, but we have so much talent and developing this depth is essential to building a team that can win week in and week out. Seeing how confident Rassie is in the squad you can really see he is building on systems where players can slot in and out like for like very excited for the game this weekend def have the depth to put the Aussies under the same pressure and a back line that could run them ragged with the forwards giving dominant ball. Let’s go Bokke❤
Virtual pressies are way better to view! You can actually hear the reporters.
How I wish all press conferences could be held like this!
Our record is not good when we play our second game Example Ireland, AB, hope it will change going forward
Esterhuisen is a massive lift for the Boks, him and Moodie were clicking, be good to have him and Pollard with a fast 9. So many 9s it's unbelievable. Wilco Louw still considered surplus amazes me..But he has gone with youngsters to blood them in. Fassi has great potential if they work on his defense, he is one dangerous player going forward. Am proved he can play at 12/13 vs Portugal. Classy classy player. I am a big fan so a clever move. It shows versatility in the middle. Morne van den Berg (scrumhalf) and Ruan Nortje (lock) will be key we are a fit lock short. And not all the established locks are not all going to make the rwc. Rotation will allow them to be strong contenders in this comp, the Argies seem like the biggest challenge right now. NZ are 6 months to a year adapting to the Razor and they will adapt and be a force again. I would have gone with Pollard because its going to bucket down on the week end and the going will be heavy under foot.. I suspect a tacticle grind it out. Kick and kick some more play for territory wont be pretty on Sat. Might have to win ugle in the rain...
I agree with you that Fassi's defence remains a question mark and that it will be great to see the cannon (Moodie) return. Rassie mentioned that he wants three players in every position so our outside center options are probably Jessie, Am, and the cannon.
@@wouterroos2359 Moody is back just 2 games away from being ready for Arg
Great team 👌 woeful wallabies are a second tier team now so this is a great opportunity for up and coming Boks 🇿🇦✅
I am so excited ,,,i just can't wait for every springbok fixture....
Fasi very good under the high ball 👌
I love this team.
The hunger within the players for game time and competition between individuals for the chance of cementing position certainly makes for probable brilliance.
The talent being fielded is massive. Power in the engine room and fast runners with the best steps in world rugby.
Some players being fielded we as Bok supporters can’t wait to see play and now there are plenty in one team.
Their support of each other will bring a bigger win and will prove their worth.
Personally I’m very excited.
Boks by 35.
☮️💜
Boks are becoming the worlds most exiting rugby team, most people say they cant wait for a Bok game to see what Dr Rassie and boks will bring to the table. WR is having a headache to keep up changing rules to tone Boks down.
It is such a compliment that world rugby is changing rules just to try and nerf the green machine.
Boks could put out four different starting XVs any given weekend - insane depth.
Broadly, the Springboks is a 45 player squad. - Dr. J Erasmus
Rassie has big balls. It's great he's rotating the squad. Already planning for the next world cup
Glad that Rassie acknowledged that anyone wearing the green jersey must be able to win, so no A or B team
Yes but lets be honest😂, you would have to be really thick to NOT see this as a B side
How can joe schmidt do homework against this team....
Is Rassie aware of Saturday's weather forecast of heavy rain with the chance of thunderstorm? One thing, when it is raining in Perth, it comes down in buckets.
Rassie probably has a meteorologist as a consultant for the Boks 😅😂
@@ForeverSports Probably! 😆
I think he consulted an astrologist for this team selection!
@@Aesyrbane 😅 In good hands then!
Better or worse than cats and dogs?
Manie will get a run at 15 hopefully.
Manie 10 pollard 12 like he's played before, on Sat he was also in that position regularly.
You've got to love Rassie.
Hello guys. Why worry.look at the bench . We have a cover up should something go's wrong😊
Lots of over confidence in this comments section 😂 sure Aus are looking woeful but if we are complacent and don’t perform best believe they could put in a performance and turn us over
Rassie nodding his head as if he knew exactly what was said when Fassie was talking in Xhosa 😅😂
He know IsiXhosa.HE IS FROM DESPATCH,HEADQUARTERS OF DANIE GERBER,ADRY .

23 - Handré Pollard (Leicester Tigers) - 72 caps, 732 points (7t, 98c, 162p, 5dg)
Morne 1tr v Portugal, no?
Why not Grant?
They might not be under pressure to win this game, but if they don't they will be under pressure to win both the AB games. Why would you take that risk?
For squad rotation
South Africa. Is South Africa. Is South Africa. REGARDS RUGBY
Shows how much teams dont fear Australia
Its a gamble we can get another 5 points but Aussies may think with this changes that they have a outside chance here. Maybe Rassie and the Boks know what they don't know!!!Go Bokke we behind you all the way. World Cups more important than this challenge for me.
Massive gamble , hope I am wrong 😳😳
Springboks by 15 plus points😊
I saw enough of this morant led pack in the URÇ minus hinekom of which he walks into this team if he wasn't injured .
why are people saying its a controversial team........................................................ We have the best squad depth so why can't we swap around. Never Question what's in Rassie's Head. "Hulle Weet nie Wat Ons Weet Nie"
Perth supporters very disappointed not seeing more top players
Perth supporters will be fine... Enjoy the game
They all top players
Those players are top players what you talking about?
What? I will give my left nicker to watch this game live!!!! They are stacked with current inform players. I can promise you they won't disappoint.
They're all top players !
Perth supporters come to South Africa
Over confidence can be a big factor. As New Zealand will be ready . So rather the boks take a humble aproach.
In terms of language south Africa has many languages not represented . So why not stick to international language.
Just thoughts in Passing.
Good luck fir the Boks . Strong team but. Surprises happen. .
Best for Boks this weekend. 🏉🏉🏉
This is what I call Long Term planning for 2027!!
Controversial??? That's disrespecting the squad... Bring it on... Bokke by 24 points...
Should the boks win comfortably. .. the rest of the world will be crapping themselves. .. re depth talent ..journey to next RWC
Hoerkommieboke.😂😂
Rest of the world ded at this stage,bokke are so stronk,genius Rassie!!RWC 2027 world on notice!🌍🫵🫵🫵😬😬😬👀💪👌👋👋👋🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
Fassi looking so uncomfortable here😅
Bliksm . How many times must rassie say they same thing. 33 players. All will get a chance. No team goes in thinking the will lose. Dumb questions. How about how they got that skill flair sorted out. All the other coaches had distribution problems. Why.....because players were not allowed to be themselves in a system. Tony brown is brilliant with this as well
Saving thier best for all blacks obviously
Rassies grin tell you that there is something comming.😅
"...en toe haal World Rugby dit uit...." ...jab jab 😅👍🏼
Even more mobile pack. Just wary of the scrums
against aus we'll be fine only issue is locks nortje and moerat 2 inexperienced players but i think we'll still win
Moerat ?????????
Wessels did not even play URC at prop...
we saw that zyn fassi lol
Fassie looks nervous
He is not comfortable 😂😂😂 but he will grow I really like him he is a good player
I think Rassie needs to go i to the sun a bit.. looking a bit under the weather there.. Pale
Rassie in your hea😂d 😂😂😂😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😂😂
too many changes for me 3 maybe 4 but 10.....I was gonna say drinking too much coolaide but I see energade there so Rassie.....better be right
South Africa "B"
Imagine Sasha at 10, Polly at 12 with Kriel at 13! Why not try this against All Blacks? Come on Rassie!
We have players that can do better than Polly in that position. He must fight for his no10 . We can not do a favour for him now he is defeated by Sacha now you want a coach to remove someone so that he can be in . Never 😢😢
What is so controversial about it?
..... against Portugal... 😂😂
They doing this on a bus. Why do they keep bouncing 🤣
Jou plugs ga brand..
Such disrespect to Backs 🙂
going too loose,,,,,,,
Disgrace... A new tight 5...all Joe needs to get his boys fired up.... Absolute disrespect!!!! Its a intn match away from home.... Ras to clever... Mark my words....
Disgrace......shameful if they win, don't wear your jersey then
I fear the same but look at that front row he could put on if it goes wrong and then etzebeth too. Let’s hope it’s not the earliest subs ever lol
Good team, just get rid of Moerat
Who's sitting to Rassie's right that seems as tho he's got Parkinson's disease? 🤔
FASSI - The foot is tapping
Silly question ..
@@barbarawright7983 Oh, thanx for the reply, it's just that if someone sitting in full view of the public and doesn't hv something like Parkinson's and has the jitters like that, they tend to come across hving low IQ... perhaps a bit like urself possibly 😁
Preparing to loose?
Haha exactly shaun
Slim vang sy baas.... WEER... Verl @ Nzl na Mbombela... Verl @ Ierland 2e toets... Wait for it!!??
What a slap in the face of PSTD making Moerat captain over him. PSTD is our best player and puts his body on the line for the boks. Moerat has done nothing and will never do anything for the boks.
I think if Rassie wants him to captain that’s good enough for me.
He sees it as a leadership group and not just who the individual is. Don’t worry about who the actual captain is seems to be what rassie is saying
@@lmkhize If Moerat makes more than 10 tackles and gains more than 5 meters on Saturday, I will eat my words.
@@Spinn2winnshame. I hope you find peace one day in your moerat hate 👍
@@lmkhize so 0m gained and his first tackle attempt he knocks himself out. Great job Moerat!
@@Spinn2winn lol I saw that and thought of you. I think thats a push since he HIA'ed himself. Boks did well though Go Bokke
Also Eben seemed to take over as captain after this
THEY GONNA LOOSE. Its part of the bok makeup. Win one loose one. The way the main team played last week, lol. THEY ARE definetly loosing this weekend. DONT THINK ILL BE WATCHING THIS ONE THANKYOU.
Why don't you go play week-in-week-out and then after that go to the UK Big boy
Also rather don't watch then and go to luvland and feed yourself, also don't braai, cook rather and don't get too far from the oven big boy
It's lose Glenn not loose, like doos means box and not you
14 World Cup winners… B team
Brilliant, a dynasty is being built, name another team that can do similar
Nice mark, I agree
