In memory of Kaunda Ntunja who died of Covid in 2020 at the age of 38. For those of you who don't know him, he was the one speaking when Mapimpi scored his try in the RWC 2019 final. SA Schools captain, Currie Cup winner with the Cheetahs, and an ambassador for SA rugby in the commentary box. Gone too soon.
Liqhashu! YiBubbly! Shampompo! Shampizi! Yho intwezi hlwahlwazayo😁
The Passion!!!
🤣🤣🤣
Passion. Wonderful makes me want to.learn Xhosa
Thank for his name, I've been looking for his name for some time now... 🤣🤣
What a Champ
Man this actually brings tears to my eyes. I have no idea what they are saying but it fills me with pride to be a south african. I love these oakes! They are national heros
That's beautiful Dustin.
Magic
“Loadshedding!” Is probably the best piece of rugby commentary I’ve heard in my life!!😂😂🥺 It never gets old!❤️🏉🔥
🤣🤣 it is indeed
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
"Nang' amadoda egilana kungekho mbane" 🤣🤣
@@amkelwezembe9945 🤣🤣🤣🤣
1:30 The way they screamed and laughed when Beauden dropped the ball man the Xhosa commentary is pure gold 😂
Lukhanyo Am is a generational talent, he absolutely deserves to join the back line coaching staff once he retires.
RIP Kaunda Ntunja, he also opened this clip when he was speaking for Siya Kolisi when he first became captain of the Springboks against Australia. What a legend. He will be missed.
When Kaunda was commentating on the players, he would speak about the places that Siya Kolisi grew up, Makazole Mapimpi grew up, Lukhanyo Am because these guys only recently became national icons as a national team so when Kaunda says "Phakamane ..." he is talking about the places these guys grew up in. He is telling these communities to rise up "Phakama" means to rise or stand. Basically these communities must be proud of their guys who despite everything are much loved, well known and are amazing at what they do.
The "Wrong Turn" Kwagga Smith ones always crack me up 🤣🤣
"Hay' man uWrong Turn" 😭😭😭
Never heard Xhosa commentary before. Now I don't want to hear anything else.
Same here 😂
Really wish non xhosas understood what is being said by these guys🤣. It's poetry and comedy at the same time
True poetry
Really wish that too
Wish we had subtitles to help learn
Our language is so beautiful 😻
@@danielhiggins3176 xhosa , Zulu, Sotho n Venda should be taught as a second first-language from grade 1 according to region/province, we cannot have south Africans not knowing south African languages in South Africa after 27 yrs of democracy, unacceptable
I've never been more proudly Xhosa, I grew up to animated Xhosa commentary just like this.. This is how its always been Football, Rugby and Cricket. Enough respect and RIP braKaunda
Xhosa commentary for rugby is by far thee most exciting ever🤣♥️🇿🇦
Just watched 25min not understanding a word and loving every second of it 👏🏻 👏🏻
I feel sorry for you.. these guys are funny
🤣🤣🤣❤️
Factz
@@mninawamavuso3816 Transcript this for us please brah, no passion around like this. As a South African I'm ashamed I can't understand it. I wish I could. The nicknames are all I know hahaha
Same here, the commentary was killing me fully🤣 didn’t understand one word except the names. The commentary is so exciting🤣
When they laughed when Barret dropped the ball🤣
um a kiwi and I cracked up larfing when they larfed when barrett dropped the ball😂
I loved when Kaunda referred to Makazole Mapimpi as "iphimphi" which means cobra. He used to say "leli iphimphi linobungozi ne thyefu futhi liyakwazi ukuyibulala ingonyama"(hopefully i got the spelling right) and what that means is that "this cobra(makazole mapimpi) is dangerous/deadly and has got poison and it knows how to kill a lion" and he said that when Mapimpi scored a try against The Lions. Kaunda was pure poetic and how i wish everyone could understand what he was saying about Siya Kolisi's first game as a captain.
Epic stuff...regards from Kenya 🇰🇪
They can although it isn't the same in a translation but it will still hold deep profundities the likes of which is only possible with Kaunda:
"The day is 16th June, the year 1991. On this day in Zwide township outside Port Elizabeth, the Kolisi family welcome the birth of their son. This baby will not be raised by his father or his mother. This baby will be raised by his grandmother and he is given the name "Siyamthanda" which means "we love him". Because, despite being born into great difficulty and poverty, he was loved a lot. It is during his youth that Siya meets Eric Songwiqi. It is Mr Songwiqi who tells the 11 year old Siya: "Young boy, you will play rugby because in the near future you are going to play for the Springboks." It's his mentor who thrusts him into rugby, and as the English says goes, "the rest is history". And right now that time has come. Siya is the first black player in history to captain the national team, right here in our rainbow nation. Rise up Zwide! Rise up Motherwell! Rise up Walmer! Rise up Kwazakele and New Brighton! Because this boy is yours, representing all of us. Siya is our grandson, our son, our nephew, our younger brother. He is Nicholas's father, Rachel's husband. He is Gwayi, Gqwashu, Gxiya, our leader. A cement truck with no reverse gear! Let the teams battle each other!"
Taken out of his book Rise on page 151
perfectly said word by word yhoo I will always look for isiXhosa commentary sm in UK😂😂
04:40 The reaction to Am's tackle on Daly is hilarious!
The loadshedding part kills me everytime🤣😂😅
From @12:00 to @12:50, the man showered Lukhanyo Am with praise. People who don't understand Xhosa are really missing out there. The hair on the back of my head stands up.
What does he say?
I'm going to be honest. I have no clue what was said but I watched each and every second of this video. It's brilliant!
Im not sure there is a more beautiful union than rugby and Xhosa commentary, it's art
They call Kwagga “wrong turn” 😂😂 if you’ve seen the movie you’ll know 😂😂
Gosh! Now I get it! Hayini wrong turn! Wenzani!🤣😂
😂😂😂😂😂
"Nqenqa mtan' omtanam, nqenqa"🤣🤣🤣 I love them so much. Them make me laugh when they're on radio
He should have cos he was out of it😂😂😂😂
Uzokphinda 😂
It hits Different 😂😂😂🎉
They way they react to these great moments is really funny 😂
Seeing Aphiwe Dyantyi man makes me emotional!
He's coming back...he's with the Sharks now. Just 2 more months
I can’t wait
Brooo.... Aphiwe was the ish
My bad, it’s actually 2023💔💔
@@iam.tshiya6302he’s BACKKKK
Very sorry to hear of the passing of one of the commentators. I've played rugby since the age of 7, the passion Xhosa radiates is off the charts, Its brilliant!
One does not need to speak or understand Xhosa to understand the passion behind the words!
the is a kwaito song titled CURRENT the use of elbows when u dance to it 3:05 the commentator says CURRENT when the Canadian player is elbowed lmao
I died laughing at! 😂😂😂 current!
The eastern cape xhosa accent is hillarious.
That hit by Lukhanyo in the British & Irish lions game had me screaming, the commentary is absolutely Golden. Pure Magic.
Great hit, Lukhanyo smoked him. Set the tone for the rest of the series
This has got to be the best commentary out there. The reaction when Am slammed Daly, too funny.
Uwrong turn🤣🤣🤣
so good lol
I love that they go absolutely ballistic regardless of the country.
I also never want to hear LRZ’s name said any other way 😂
15:25
"Hayi, Faf man!" (Oh no, Faf)
15:26
"HEEEEEEEEEEYYYYYYYYY!"
18:51 That's what you call smash and grab: they took the phone they took the wallet and took everything and left
CZcams algorithm got it right this time, I love this. Poetry, Comedy and sound effects all the elements of true African story telling 😁🔥🤣
I’d love somebody to translate that introduction about Siya Kolisi. They played it in the “Chasing the Sun” documentary. Love the passion that these announcers have! 😂
On the 16th of June 1991... the son of Kolisi was born in Zwide, Port Elizabeth. He was raised neither by his father nor mother. He was raised by his grandmother. He was given the name Siyamthanda... because even though he was raised in poverty... he was loved very much. Growing up, he met Eric Songwiqi. His mentor told him that one day... he will play rugby for the Springboks. His mentor introduced him to rugby... and as the English say... the rest is history.
The day has arrived. Siya is the first black captian... for the South African rugby team... in the new South Africa. Stand up Zwide! Stand up Motherwell! Stand up Walmer! Stand up Kwazakhele, Emagxaki... and New Brighton. This young man represents the Black nation. He represents us all. Siya is our son, our grandson, our nephew...Nicholas' father, Rachel's husband... uGqwashu, uGxiya He is our captain, our hero. A cement truck without a reverse gear. This is it. Today is the day.
@@kurtjetson1284 that's quite beautiful thanks for the translation.
Awe they should make it compulsory to atleast do Xhosa once a week in schools
@@thewezz0809 yeah not happening bro, you really think schools like Grey, Affies and other strictly white/Afrikaans school would be willing to do Xhosa if they don't even care about English? (I know there's an English subject, but you get the idea).
@@tsaki_titan hahaha funny
Oko ndiyihleka. 🤣 Being Xhosa is probably the best thing emhlabeni, thoroughly enjoyed this.
Thank you Andrew! Love my rainbow Nation!

IsiXhosa ❤️🇿🇦
Sokhetye
05:27 to 05:47 is the BEST South African commentary across all SA sports of all time. There has been and will be nothing close to that. I return to that sound clip of #KaundaNtunja and it is forever embedded into my soul.
‘Liqhashu!” Kaunda Ntunja roared when Makazole Mapimpi dotted the ball down behind England’s try line.
- “Liqhashu - the sparkling wine’s cork popping.”
“Ibubbly, shampompo, shampizi!”
- “Ibubbly, shampompo, shampizi - sparkling wine
“Izinto ezihlwahlwazayo!”
- things that sparkle.
11:25. Commentator Imitating an Aussie accent🤣
Goosebumps galore. Thanks for this👌
Bluddi love this! I'm going to have to learn Xhosa to appreciate it fully, but knowing zilch still makes it great commentary!
I have been a subscriber for only a few weeks, have looked at many past videos, (I think) but this is my absolute favourite so far! No matter what the language, no matter how much you understand, rugby is beyond borders, barriers. Soccer, American Football, hockey - whatever the surface, tennis, rounders, or fishing just don't come close
Please do? Xhosa is inherently comedic😂. You will be happy for the rest of your life😅😂😂😂
This commentary is so good, love the hype
This is just beautiful, man!!! Rugby and Xhosa just go together...
Love this. The spirit of South Africa. Remember the government is not the people
True
I'm sorry to all those who do not understand Xhosa, man, the poetry, not commentary, is on another level.
3:01 "Current"🤣🤣🤣
Lmao
As an afro-descendant, it is so nice to hear good commentary in a native African language even if I don’t understand it.
How does this not have a million views already ? Beautiful compilation
I don't understand a word but I'm not watching Rugby in English ever again
I have no idea what he’s saying but I love it
Waiting for this, thanks Andrew
A very South African moment 21:21
😂😂🤦🏽♀️
The best for me is when one of the commentators says something so funny the other one can't help but "break character" and laugh hahaha then you know it was a good one!
4:45 too good 😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
England leading USA 38-0....England score another try and these boys pumping like its a world cup winning try 🤣
Lukhanyo Am is just special 😮
I love you so much for this😭😭😭❤
Similar to the Argentinean/French commentators... the passion carries over even if the words don't.
Waiting for the one where Angelo David’s bounced specman so hard he got a concussion
The passion from the commentators is unparralelled. Love it.
just what I needed!!
SPECMAN! SPECMAGIC! SPECWIZZAD!
