Jalibert and Tameifuna were rushed back early from injury for this match, and they were absolutely not fit to play. I understand the gamble that Bru made, especially with Jalibert (I think his understudy Garcia was also injured), but it absolutely did not pay off. Neither of them played anywhere near their best.

Premiership should not be spoken in the same paragraph, let alone sentence as Top14.

Very impressive . You can see he has been mannered and developed in the right way. Congratulations. Now move on and knock the world over with your skills.

Van der Merwe better than Roodie

wishing aphiwe the best of luck where ever he goes

My team: 1. Steenkamp 2. Bongi 3. Koch 4. Etzebeth 5. Mostert 6. Siya 7. Du toit 8. Roos 9. De Klerk 10. Sacha 11. Arendse 12. De Allende 13. Kriel 14. Kolbe 15. Willemse Nuke squad that comes on around the 50th minute.. numbers 16-20… 16. Malherbe 17. Marx 18. Nche 19. Snyman 20. Smith 21. Van Staden 22. Williams 23.Fassi V d merwe I’m not really sure off yet,, he played against a poor wales,,,however sacha is the real deal 100%…. I would pair him with experience de Klerk…..Le roux is not so solid under a high ball that’s why I’m leaning towards fassi he is brilliant….That is my team and no one on here can say I’m wrong we as South Africans we watch the game from little we know rugby trust…❤ However the most important thing out of all… we are building for the triple crown so keep that in mind…. We need these new players to come in…. Most of the players I’ve selected can play anywhere in positions… it’s the best rugby squad I’ve seen EVER!!!! we want to win I understand that but the series ain’t important getting in these new players and game time is important ❤

Rassie’s plan is to build a bit of continuity after work cups. Still plenty of time to bleed players. A whole bunch of changes now put that at risk. There will be injuries, there will be retirements. Players will be replaced.

Why do u never reply to comments bro

As the koko show legends would say"Schmidt it in"👊💪

Wallabies are going to be tough to beat.

The French are useless, kants play rugby and win Rugby finals, oh and their board is sold independently and they are independent 😢 hence losers 🖕

Sounds super confident mate, wales will get 4 xxxxs

Joe "Ye'ow" Schmidt

For the next two and half years I predict many more "shock calls" with players floating in and out the squad. Rassie clearly likes to slowly bring people in, looks for the best fit and not the best player, builds specific combinations and strategies. A lot of these players not in right now, will likely get exposure in the 2 year window. His goal right now is to mix young blood with the experienced guys. And establish which players are primed for 2027 (and 2031). After 2 years of rebuilding the available player's, he'll likely step back into his director role and appoint a dedicated coach for the WC. All going well we a get a hatrick 🤞

Very classy guy, almost like a Daniel Carter

He is surely the man to bring the Aussies back up. I'm a Saffa living in Aus. It's not good for rugby to have Aus not competing

We are warriors

future Springbok captain

Sacha might be my new favourite Springbok 🇿🇦👏🏼👍🏼

He is brilliant as player and as person.

I'm always sceptical of hype, I watched Sacha play U20 but as I say I was always dubious of the hype around him. But ja after that Wales game, listening to him talk, seeing his composure and attitude... ja ek stem saam. This kid is going to be one of the greats.

He ain't heavy....he's my brother...

Johan Goosen missed out

Johan Goosen is also unlucky

Tyrone for Fassi is a BIG NO!!

Always like your reviews, from a kiwi

Guys I don't know I see it far better than it ever has been. That everyone in the squad is on merit and it's an exciting time. But I think it's disingenous to say 'unlucky' to not be included. Green has been on the radar awhile. Elrigh, Wilco Louw all of them for many years. I mean the angry warthog was knocking for selection as far back as before 2019 WC when we were choosing the Stormers bench hooker Ntubeni. Who wasn't picked for the WC in the end. For Dweba who's not in this squad. In reality these are all fringe players and only so many places in the squad. It does seem disingenous though when you compare the above to people's disappointment to Masuku after 1 season and regular season barely making top 8, and Nohamba with the lower table Lion's. We even picked Hendrikse over the Bulls year in year out performing flyhalf. Granted they all have skills and Rassie knows best how to deal with this. But to say it's unlucky. Negates the necessity put forth by government for it to be a progressively less diverse team.

Ha ha - you both are! But it is not undoable. Join other rugby players and go Carnivore Diet or listen to Prof Tim Noakes - especially with Ireland coming.

Will SA wear green this time for a change?

Nice to see you share the reality of the Irish fans being respectful. Yes there is a rivalry building, but it does not have to be full of rubbish, it should be an opportunity for SA rugby fans to explore Ireland and vice versa, with some sport thrown in. I love Rugby, but it's just a sport.

Suurgat! Nice 😊 A nice curryism… Onkant betrap!😅

Morne VdB really better than Nohamba as a 3rd option scrummy? Especially considering that Nohamba kicks brilliantly as a backup for if Manie starts at 10

Lekker 🍻

what did the club owner of siya's team, say about siya?

Rassie knows what his doing 😊

Message to Rassie, plz don't allow Mamie Limpcock to kick for poles 😐

Straining my ears to hear, especially the questions 😐 👎

SA 4 gold, Ireland 8 quarters SA 💯 % South Africans , Ireland 8 players , 7 foreign 😂😂😂 plus an English coach who never played for Ireland

Ettien Botha was die beste centre in SA maar was volgens standaarde van springbokke te klein. Bulle moet soortgelyke centre vind. Asb. Self's SA het so centre alla Mannetjies Roux nodig. Moeg van stampkar rugby.

Ireland coming for ya boytjie

Moodie isn't in the squad 🤦‍♀

I want Kurtlee and Edwill on the pitch at the same time. +

why do we act like 12 and 13 are not thin, david kriel covers both

just accept green will play for england

Do you know that Tyrone Green wasn't offered a spot in the broader squad? We know for sure that England are already talking to him about playing for them as soon as he qualifies. Maybe he's decided to go that route already?

Great coach and great SA squad. Much respect 🙏

What was name of the bulls 12 centre who died in a accident

Nobody is ever unlucky to make a Bok squad. Some players are definitely unlucky NOT to make it though.

You only get the answer at 19:08 lol

Ouch
