I'm a South African, naturally a Bok supporter, Boy I love you program, the insights and the views are so refreshing. Keep up the great work.

This show is far superior to The Breakdown. Great chemistry between James, Bryn and Ross that makes it much more enjoyable than watching Kirwan et al.

[clintonjames]

I'm a South African & of course a Bok supporter, I really enjoy your show & want to add, most South Africans have absolute respect for the All Blacks & will never write them off. Go the Boks.

[takeiteasyyyyy]

I find this show soooo much better than the Breakdown. The level of technical knowledge of the game Jamie and Brynn brings to the show keeps me on the edge of my seat just listening to them chatting. Brynn has such a deep understanding of the game. I wished he had the opportunity to play for the AB's. Would love to know why the coaches never looked his direction. Great show guys!!!

[veggieman_sa]

As a saffa, I’m quite nervous of what the AB’s might bring but looking forward to it

[leightonkeutenius]

Wow so many South Africans posted here ; and thank you for the extremely gracious comments and the respect between the 2 nations in rugby is very special . My 2 cents is that this is the most all court rounded SA team I’ve ever seen and the backline talent is phenomenal . Forwards nothing to add just athletic world class machines . If SA really click I fear a blow out score coming there just so superior right now .

[imopn]

Never miss these guys. By a contey mile New Zealands best Rugby pundits. Kirwan and the guys are always so negative. These guys look like they love the game and you always learn something about the game. Not just constantly hearing about issues with Rugby

[rapid]

Boy do I learn about Rugby from this pod. The insights into attacking shapes were phenominal. Thanks guys

[emilebotha]

As a South African and a pure blood Boks supporter through and through I love the ABs they have always been the team that has set the standard of rugby and Boks vs ABs have always been the match to watch. I love this program the insight that you guys give is so good and so detailed I just like to listen to you guys analyse the matches. Keep up the good work.

[Nicholisp]

As a Bok supporter it's infuriating that everyone keeps writing off the ABs.

[Vega-hpvp]

This pod is like a nice cup of tea, love it

[phelansa]

No South African will ever discount, or write off the All Blacks. They have way to much respect for the AB’s. Great show!

I will say one thing, you discount just how much the uncontested scrums disrupted the Springbok game plan.

[freddietrich]

AB supporter from SA I hope the matches don't get decided by contentious ref decisions may the best team on the day wins looking forward to it

[JackKinross]

Such an informative pod as always, appreciate it. Go the ABs, you can do it.

[rodwellchigome]

As a South African, we need to seriously sort our red zone conversion. Its been an issue for a decade now. I know Ardie will target ruck 2 or 3 in the red zone after a set piece. Both teams are class, I just feel the Boks are more of a hammer in the red zone, whereas the ABs are a scalpel. I hope Tony Brown can sort that out moving forward. The game will come down to one or 2 opportunities taken down the stretch.

[Teezy_Ty]

As a Saffa have the utmost respect for the AB’s, our greatest rivals. Never write the AB’s off. I reckon it’s going to be 1-1. Boks take the game in Joburg and the AB’s take it in Cape Town. AB’s have a good record in Cape Town and get a lot of support. Going to be a cracking 2 matches

[rogerbarrister]

Such a fan/customer centric show. Presenting the viewers questions is also a good idea. Its nice when players answer the questions that us non-pros have

[DonAndrewGough-vtki]

I’m a South African and I come to look for your videos, absolutely love it! Totally unbiased and great analytics of the game but super fun at the same time. Love it guys, keep it coming. Can’t wait for the ABs to come to our shores next week, it’s going to be epic as it always is between our two proud nations! 🙏💪🏼

[riekertdewet]

Great show from a SAFFA, very nervous for the two games. All said and done if both teams play to their strength and full protentional the boks show just take it I believe.

[charlesskeen]

Great video and insights thanks gents...looking forward to your visit..may the best team win - Bok supporter
