Just to add a little to the bit on Siya Kolisi’s injury. His was a full ACL break, and conventional surgery + rehab would’ve taken around 9 months. But fortunately one of the world’s leading knee surgeons (Dr. Willem van der Merwe) used a novel reconstruction surgery that he invented that expedited the recovery process significantly.
Siya was one of the first patients to undergo it and it’s already on trial elsewhere in the world. It will very likely be the standard method to reconstruct knees in people in years to come, which is marvellous news for sport as a whole. It’s crazy the lengths the Springboks were willing to go to and the faith Siya put in his doctors.

The exclusion of scrum machine use is interesting. Even at a high school level they are used. You make a great point about the number of bodies they have, but I can totally see the benefits. Sparring is better than the heavy bag, kind of the same dynamic no?

[@cobusbrits2]

Yes and scrum machines dont push back, angles in and tries to swing the scrum and how to counter it. See how the lawn are torn up behind the locks? Wont get that with a sceum machine.

[@jacquie212]

For lower levels, cheap scrum machines are a killer on the props backs. That impact without a good hydraulic or spring system creates stress that is not game realistic.

19:04 Best 8 against best 8 while there are still more players standing around waiting their turn... Very interesting and different from traditional way of doing things.

Hope you guys will do a professional soccer team gym session breakdown one of these days

[@cameronround4277]

I know a couple, low level, pro soccer players. They barely gym even off season, it's a lot of hamstring work, a bit of lower body power, and a ton of running - long distance, sprint training, direction changes
