As someone who played in a school that played in a semi-decent league, even we were pressured into "getting bigger" if you know what ai mean. We would leave for summer holiday and get back the next year to little Johan all of a sudden weighing 90kg at flanker and being able to flip busses. And that was 10 years back. Can't imagine the pressure on these kids today where school/varsity rugby is bigger than ever. Not saying it is the case for everyone and you do get your genetic outliers, however years after some of my friends and teammates have admitted to being on something a little extra whilst playing in highschool.
True, but things are slowly changing. The focus is being directed towards skill. Some of the best players in the current schoolboy league are quite small. E.g Grey College's current flyhalf, the fullback from Paarl Gim, Paarl Boys' outside centre etc etc...
It started in 1995 and people jumping on us when we claim the south african 95 team deaths are suspicious as hell are not helping the young lads to stay clean
@@captaincrunch2755 from what I’ve heard it hasn’t changed whatsoever. That being said, many players don’t need it as they can rely skill and agility. It’s very prevalent still
I remember playing rugby league back and talking to a cousin of mine who also played (UK). He admitted, when he got scouted for a professional team they would try to push PHD’s onto these young kids so when they turned time to play for the first team, they would have the size, bare in mind these lads where 16 years of age.
SA schoolboy rugby has evolved to a new level. Back in my school days we had big guys but now these boys are massive. I was blown over when we revamped a technical college in Pretoria for 1st year students just out of school. It was the middle of winter and these boys were in shorts and slops. The size of these guys was unbelievable!!
tackling like this is encouraged from primary school, you were told to hit the bags hard and low in training, we were conditioned to intimidate the opponent, hit hard first, it would cause them to get rid of the ball quicker and somewhat put them behind the gain line.
I was a very fit 93kg flank in my schoolboy days, I still got lifted off the ground with an elbow from a 130kg prop. Obviously not all about weight but I remember 1 school foreward pack at the time that equalled the National Springbok foreward pack weight. Friend of mine thought he was a big man, 2 metre tall until he went Craven week and the other locks there could put their chins on his head, said he's never felt so small 🤣 I know a handfull of people I played against at school that made it and represented the Springboks. They all about retiring now.
@@hanoitripper1809 Oh really, but it seems the French have the big boys these days. Etsabeth often being the smallest in comparison to the French league locks. And contrary to what most people think, SA are often the lighter of the packs, if you look at the last WC, SA was the lightest of the semi finalists but were still regarded the best at scrumming and lineouts so clearly not all about forward pack weights.
@@groenrizla2513 for sure. Technique and skills pay the bills! It was like that also when our school team would play club sides with bigger and older guys who said they were u15/17 but used to drive to the games themselves sometimes. Our lightweight front row would win all the scrum penalties against the bigger guys as they tired quickly. With regard to the Boks, isnt Snyman bigger than etsebeth and Mostert?
@@hanoitripper1809 Ja we experienced the same thing in school rugby esp with the coloured schools, they had beards 🤣 I don't think there's much in it between RG, Etsabeth and Lood, a few kgs and an inch here or there but Mostert is smaller than PSDT but you know how the Springboks like their versatile utility players. Im also glad Evan Roos, Stormers 8th man and a few other newbies are included in the squad, be good watching.
@@groenrizla2513 south africa have a lighter pack but still bigger players. Same in URC. Amazing how they achieve that. Means a lot of muscle and technical skills.

@@newspaper9949 many case? That's a lie, not only is it a lie, but it doesn't justify the accusation laid upon the boys in the video - that they're juiced up!

Aside from being illegal in most of the rugby playing world a blind eye is unfortunately prevalent in South Africa. The Schools need to stamp it out as the long term health of the boys is at risk. Peds and Steroids have no place in schools
Would of been a fantastic video to watch if almost all the tackles weren’t completely illegal, don’t get me wrong…. A lot of skill and hard running shown here but the skill of maintaining technique in big hits is something much greater
They aren’t training to tackle the other guy comfortably… they are training to hurt the other player. This mindset is encouraged from Primary School. Even as early as age 6.
These boys are jacked! And I mean most of them. We use to take Monohydrate Creatine and the formulas that came later during our playing days but all we got were bloated big physiques that looked normal. These laaities are on something else and don't look like teenagers . This year I heard 2 fatalities as a result of on-field incidents, it would be interesting to know statistically exactly how many.

Roughly at 2.55, that poor child could have ended up in a wheelchair. There is tackling and there is trying to take out a player.

Are you sure about that though? It seems like in SA they're more concerned about school kids taking steroids and making false birth certificates. They seem to place more emphasis on huge hits in defence in SA schoolboys but is the standard of rugby overall higher here than in NZ, especially with steroids discounted? I'm not sure.

@@increasepeace4996 Maybe reading and history were not your strong points at school. In the era prior to the Springboks re-introduction to rugby after sport isolation (pre 1994), the Springboks had a win record of 19 - 14 against the AB's. And yes, ALL players from ALL nations are generally bigger now than they were in days gone past - does this mean they ALL take steroids?? Get you facts straight before you suck shit out of the thumb.
@@increasepeace4996 Players from every team are bigger. If you look at the sheer size and power of the late great Jonah Lomu and how he used that to rip teams apart at RWC 1995 - but then consider that he was 20kg lighter than Nemani Nadolo; Dan Carter was an inch taller but 22kgs heavier than Grant Fox; Walter Little was 76kg, Frank Bunce 85kg - nowhere near the 108kg of Ma'a Nonu. You can't just look at one country and attribute the increase in the size of their rugby players to steroids, not when it is abundantly clear that this is a world wide selection trend and we have left the era of office workers running out to represent their country on a Saturday afternoon.

@@Kashewz7693 ja ne😂
What is this grown man doing playing with kids!?
That kid got folded at 2:54....he needs to play with boys his own size, not age
Thats not how we do it in SA... Here the gazelle takes on the lions😂😂 I mean just look at Faf😂😂
hgh and steroids' are awesome :)
Who’s the black guy in the picture?
Regardless of steroid use or not, these boys have heart, making their runs and tackles even more entertaining
Regardless of steroid use??? Not the best way to start that statement buddy
I reckon I’ll have heart if I knew I was on steroids
@@darafalope6277 a heart… attack badum ts. Yea okay I’ll see myself out
These are corn fed boer kids. Dont need steroids.
@@westsideAUKILANI "..or not", meaning say what you will about their possible steroid use, cant deny they give it their all, making it entertaining to watch
We need to intervene with this culture of roiding in South Africa. This is bad.
The ground be like concrete
I'm sure they haven't been to the Pacific.
whoo is the blond guy on the cover
Okay lads, polynesians are the only people who can grow large, not South Africans. When South Africans do grow large, it has to be roids! Remember that.
Most of them are on juice let’s face it. I’ve heard it myself from guys who went to westville boys
Блокопроходчики👏🤪
Zuki Tom!!?
Surely these boys are juicing!
These boys were just as big a 100 years ago - thats why the boks destroyed all, including the AB's, in the years before steroids were a thing.
@@dve804 Precisely. Or even 50 years ago... have a look at Schalk Burger standing next to his father, or Wikus van Heerden standing next to Moaner. I've had the honour of meeting Schalk senior and when he walks between you and the sun, it gets very dark very quickly lol. That ain't roids...
@@dve804 the Boks never destroyed the ABs. They were pretty evenly matched. And the players today are obviously bigger. Don't make shit up.
@@increasepeace4996 Maybe reading and history were not your strong points at school.
In the era prior to the Springboks re-introduction to rugby after sport isolation (pre 1994), the Springboks had a win record of 19 - 14 against the AB's.
And yes, ALL players from ALL nations are generally bigger now than they were in days gone past - does this mean they ALL take steroids??
Get you facts straight before you suck shit out of the thumb.
@@increasepeace4996 Players from every team are bigger. If you look at the sheer size and power of the late great Jonah Lomu and how he used that to rip teams apart at RWC 1995 - but then consider that he was 20kg lighter than Nemani Nadolo; Dan Carter was an inch taller but 22kgs heavier than Grant Fox; Walter Little was 76kg, Frank Bunce 85kg - nowhere near the 108kg of Ma'a Nonu. You can't just look at one country and attribute the increase in the size of their rugby players to steroids, not when it is abundantly clear that this is a world wide selection trend and we have left the era of office workers running out to represent their country on a Saturday afternoon.
Who ate all the pies ?
If u wanna c sum 'units' come an av a look at the 'baby rhinos' we've got running around our rugby pitches in South Wales ✌😎✌
