You guys are my favourite rugby Lots of love from South Africa💛🇿🇦

South African here, these guys are class. Pundits from all over the world (SA included) are sometimes so biased and clueless. Not these guys. Absolute class.

I love this podcast, too. As a Springbok supporter and a total rugby lover, I fully support the views of this podcast and the analysis is so unbiased, professional and thorough. Also very informed. These blokes certainly do their homework and have huge rugby experience and expertise. Congratulations guys!! I think NZ All Blacks will correct their "short comings" during last week's game and will be a different team next Saturday. But they will not under-estimate the Argentinian Pumas (again).

I always believe the term “we lost it, they did not win it” is not only unfair but disrespectful to the winning team. You can always find reasons on why you lost and therefore claim that you lost the game but you forget that the other team put you under pressure to make those mistakes. Argentina were the better team period, the All Blacks will improve.

As a bok supporter. Tony brown was the master stroke appointment. The difference his making is massive.

Ten years ago Argentina could only dreamt of playing lke these, but they learnt a lot cause of the competition with tier 1 teams.
They change the way they play, they changed the way their players train and they were so clever to never give up even when they take a lot of critics in their own country, the most used terminology to criticize them was "the dignity loss" referring to played always a good game but always losing at the end. But they knew that even losing they were learning, match after match, until some day the most important change took place, thay started to believe it was possible, and then Argentina was a whole new beast, now they have the players, the knowledge, the experience, and they believe in them. Argentina is now a world class rugby nation, of course AB are legends, as SA, Australia, England, Ireland, but what Argentina did in just one decade is really nothing short but awesome.

The most impressive thing about Argentina was sticking to their game plan and not caving to scoreboard pressure, even when they went 20-8 down they kept their heads.

When this AB team clicks under razor they are gonna be a scary outfit. I am a die hard bok fan with massive respect for the ABs. That being said it was nice to see the Argentinians put on such a perfomance.

I have no doubt that your team will click. The boks are looking good. Argentina is doing great. Razor will build something special. I just hope Joe Schmith and Australia can rebuild to being the powerhouse of old.

We had 3/4 southern teams in the 2023 world cup semis. Let's hope we can get the clean sweep in 2027.

Brilliant show. Insightful and much more objective than the Breakdown. Go Bokke

[awblax]

Du Plessis Kirifi is an out and out fetcher who also made 24 tackles on Friday night. We need someone like him

[johanventer]

My English is not to good, hope you understand me. From Botswana I see it total deferent. In the past there were only 2 to 3 teams up to standard to compete with the All Blacks. In the last 2 to 3 years teams all over do a lot better and they are on the same level as the bigger teams. We will see more of this upsets in the near future.

Listening to this, I just realised that Springboks were mongrels out and out with so many games ending in fighting, but that seems to be gone. Also, Springboks doesn't conform to adapt to another team, they force teams to adapt to them. Lastly, the crowd is so green because the brand of rugby is just beautiful for rugby in general

[eugeneduplessis]

17:22 actually smiled watching it.... It was an experience. Well said mate 🎉❤

[tymoses]

Always look forward to your guys views and opinions.. Especially about the boks.. As a SAffer I appreciate the educated views but more so the honesty.. Not just about the boks but the ABs as well.. I for 1 am alil suspect of the boks playing with width against the mighty All Blacks.. But we can't wait to face u guys.. Much love and respect from this side of the Indian ocean.. Also I think bringing back a big winger who can get over the gainline would aid the current ABs side since there aren't many big ball carriers lining up to get them over the gainline

[Bennusan]

Really enjoyable conversation. Some actual quality analysis and balanced opinion from NZ. Well done lads.

[theborgster]

Aaah, A PROPER rugby pundit panel, so refreshing to watch.
What the AB's need is to play the Bokke, that ALWAYS takes them to peak performance, as it does for us Bokke. This was a slight bump in the road for the AB's, not a reason to panic

[classicMrE]

These players are more worried about being show ponies for social media, if they can't handle the Pumas forward pack then South Africa will absolutely pummel them.
