IRELAND TEAM TO BEAT THE BOKS? | SELECTION REACTION | South Africa vs Ireland

- Caelan Doris is the Captain. Are we seeing the final moments of Peter O'Mahony's amazig career for Ireland. Just one of the talking points after Andy Farrell's selection for the 2nd Test against South Africa in Durban.
- Sport
Considering the injuries and lack of availabilities, that's a strong 15. Freeing up Beirne to hit more rucks could be huge
Bundi was carrying that arm from 65 mins. Hard nut to finish the game
That was one of the most impressive and courageous performances. I say this as a Springbok fan. He is a hard man.
Yeah but he wasn't doing much else in the game so good he's replaced, same with POM.
Such a pity to see the old warrior down. It will still be a great game that can swing either way. I’m a Bok supporter.
I'm Irish, big fan of eggchasers , I always promote this channel to friends, keep up the good work , 😊
As a South African- may the best team on the day win. I probably wouldn't be feeling like that if we had lost last week lol
Lol. May rugby win.
@gerardkelsh1011 yes that's how I genuinely feel
Well said
A drawn series at home means Ireland win; the Boks HAVE TO win on Saturday
I think you guys are safe as far as world rankings go. Ireland would need to win by more than 15 and the most optimistic Ireland fan would struggle to believe that possible.
Peter is beyond loved in the whole of Ireland seriously, but I think sadly it is time, but I hope he gets to play his last test at home, so perhaps after November, we need to give him the respect he deserves. Sad to see Aki out as well
It's definitely time, over time. And Aki was poor so the injury could be a temporary blessing.
@@Camcolito Sad to see your negative comments like this one, your not fit to cut Pete's grass.
@@martingavin3147 So you think he should continue on being anonymous in games because you like him? This is elite sport, nothing to do with liking or not liking POM, he's playing badly because he's old.
Dnt like the fact that you lift certain player let me think on ths guy during the WC in France thy was very disappointed about thy loss
Springbok fan in the UK, hands down my favourite rugby channel!
As a Springbok fan, my first impression is that this team is definitely strong enough to get a result in Durban. Keen to see how Doris will cope with the added responsibility of the armband, but overall one or two of the changes may actually help Ireland in my view, Ringrose looked dangerous coming off the bench. Boks will have to perform on the day to wrap up the series
With the surprise element gone regarding the Springbok exciting new dimension to their attack spreading it wide I can see possibilities of Ireland picking off one or two of those passes.
@@gerardkelsh1011I reckon we play our most conservative game ever. All box kicks, set pieces, crash balls. Less than 80 passes. It’s contrast and unpredictability which win us a third WC on the trot
@@jimsquire-chestnuts8381 of course if what you say turns out to be true then it wasn't unpredictable. Sorry I couldn't help myself. 😁
I'm not surprised mybe they can goes on to the win nothing are impossible I also think Ireland can take the one! Bokke is not on win every time thy strengthen they power to 2027
He disappeared against Hanekom. 🤷♂️
I like coming to your page...you seem to get the genuine SA fans and not the Facebook trolls
Make no mistake. SA got the bounce of the ball last Saturday and Ireland were well in that game. This series is far from over
Yup, which is why an unchanged line-up makes little sense to me. I know the logic - this is the second half and we've got to improve - but Ireland will be treating it as a different game and will use different combinations to crack our defence. That and some tired legs at the front, in midfield and on the flanks makes it inevitable that we'll concede.
Not really. South Africa were the dominant team for the majority of the game in the parts that matter - collisions, gain line, bench strength, defenc. Ireland were hanging in there. A late try and an off day for Pollard kicking made the scoreline look closer than it actually was. South Africa are going to be better next game as they're still embedding a new way of playing.
@@bkrause4424 SA definitely had the bounce of the ball mate. Wasn’t the decisive factor but it certainly helped SA.
Good luck! Love your channel...go Bokke!
Beirne at six👏could be a masterstroke, the experience of Omahoney coming off the bench most likely an angry peter coming off the bench could also bring the extra omf hes been missing
POM is permanently angry!
Seeing Tadhg at 6 was a big relief for me!
Think the Springboks have a Tadhg more depth....
HAHAHA
@@user-fz7yp3xk6w Taahdg is depth
Scrummaging against the huge bok pack had reduced his impact in open play...
@@bigg5582agree im nervous for us as Beirne is very good in his open play game, SA cant compare to the Irish with their skilled losies. I mean thats what the irish are based around, that forward only try in the last few minutes proved this.
As a Saffer, I so respect and love Ireland’s never say die attitude- no doubt they will give it everything- I’d predict SA by 3
Can’t really see us winning today but hope we put on a decent show despite our injuries/absences. Hope you guys enjoy our proud Irish rugby team making the trip anyway.
close call
Doris stepped up massively in the first test made me look a fool for shitting on him recently
Ah Clay, he's hardly sheee-it!
Correct. Dorris is a machine of note. A crazy Irishman - ha ha ha
Tim, beating SA isn’t the problem, it’s the ref and TMO were the problem last week, white house was poxy and Luke was spineless, having said that I do like the look of the team and yes we will beat SA this Saturday 😉
Cmon Ireland 🇮🇪🇮🇪
I can see Tim has been enjoying that African sun
Eggmasters loves the SA sunshine!
Tim....I remember ur combined team when Ireland played England in the 6 Nations....almost no English on it and u guys still beat us!...so I'm hoping the lack of Irish players on this combined team will work in our favour!. A brilliant set of reports from SA over the last weeks..THANK U.
Let's hope we get anyone but an English ref. Wayne Barnes Jr. Couldn't make the onfield calls quick enough it was sad. Then, he reiterated he call ten times to the TMO almost like a warning don't overrule me. Why can't we get a French or Southern hemisphere ref for such a big game. Everyone knows where the English ref stand
Boks need to revert to original World Cup winning approach. Stranglehold. And win. And then I want to see John Kirwin’s face.
John kirwin is an old man wearing a divers mask spectacles. Who gives a toffee. The ABs have enough to worry about.
John Kirwin and Matt always on about the laws, and how the Springboks are abusing the laws😂😂
You guys can't take any criticism can you. Mat and Kirwan have a good point.
@HenryBaggins-rz7mq If Springboks coaches listened to JK and Matt during world cup we would not have got through our pool stage. JK has changed his tune recently and said Springboks are playing the best rugby. Matt may have some good points but he does not understand that there is nothing wrong if playing within the laws. If Rassie wants to replace 6 forwards at the same time he is allowed to. How does this discriminate against the backs? Playing within the laws is no sin. It is good to accept constructive criticism but when people let their emotions dictate what they saying then it is sometimes irrelevant talk
Remember we are back to back World Cup Champions and only Country to win the world cup 4 times, so JK and Matt should rather absorb some knowledge from our coaching staff.
We saw last week that Ireland countered or scrums for most of the game. Sticking to one plan allows opposition to anticipate and counter. We need to keep surprising opposition.
A Beautiful welcome to our Beloved Springbok Country
It’s going to be one hell of a game despite the changes. Go Bokke!
The Irish has always played à hard game and always the full 80min. They are now true competitor's on the top with us in South Africa. Great players and said respectfully. We will have a great game!!🤝💚🏉
As an Irish fan, we've got to go out at 100% from the start and maintain that pace for the entire 80. We were slow to get going last week which put us behind from the third minute.
Absolutely that team can win. Especially now that we're at sea level and there's oxygen
If the game was reffed by the laws it would have been a draw, I do think SA was the narrowly better team so SA winning is a fair scoreline but going of lad what happened it should have been a draw.
Correct. I thought SA were marginally better, but the two teams were not reffed the same.
You need to listen to what Nigel owens said about the referring of the first test. He said the lowe try should have stood.
Hi Tim. Love your show. Been watching since the RWC. Love that you are here in S.A. Just one thing I think you missed out on with regards to reaching your 100 000 subs, is you should have used the Loftus crowd more... You should have promoted yourself... you saw how many people recognized you. So do your normal interviews, but follow it up with "are you subscribed?"
And ask the people to sub to your channel right then and there... Hit the beer tents and you will reach your 100 000 subs before you are on your way back too the UK... Go to Kings Park and hit 100 000!!! Keep up the good work!
Peter is a well loved/ hated player in South Africa, we see our passion in his eyes. Legend of the game.
Thx Tim always good to hear your side. Remember to enjoy S.A.
As always Tim, great content. Enjoy the lead up to the game. Cannot wait
Ringrose and Henshaw are a phenomenal pairing. Let's see what they do in their correct positions.
Let's hope Henshaw remembers how to play 12, it's been quite a while
DDA and JEsse can handle them easily👍🏽
@@nevillepieterse9983 Let's not get ahead of ourselves shall we? Those two deserve lots of respect
Bok need to play better than last weekend. If one of the 3 big TMO decisions had gone the other way the match would have been a drawn.
You are okay the same bunch of clowns are officiating this Saturday just switching Pearse to the line
@@readesiun988Keep crying, bud. People like you were quiet on that final maul in the group game at the world cup. This time around the Boks won't be as rusty as last week.
Both teams do, boks were obviously better on the day but ireland werent at their full potential too, hopefully both teams have a banger on saturday and its a brilliant match
@@RikiLouw69 Not crying at all, just use to the same old English BS refs, Don't expect them to be as rusty, either will Ireland, because they were both really shite last week, number 1 v a really sub par number 2, how embarrassing for the world champions.
@@readesiun988 SA was rusty but looked better than the Irish. The same refs this week as last week,they may feel they owe the lrish the 50/50 calls.
Love your channel Tim, your enthusiasm and your willingness to share your honest thoughts. It reflect well in the jump in your subscribers, well done! 😉💪
Great video, again, as always. Look at those subscriber numbers. Just wonderful!
Thank u Tim for the channel I enjoy it so much just the way that you go about giving feedback on all the games and just updating us on what you thing about the boks and just rugby in Ganeral
Enjoy the Sun ,food, and our country
I hope you watched Nigel Owens on that TMO madness. That was a try and it should have been Ireland ahead.
agrred - total highway robbery
bookies probably wanted a low scoring game
Scores even with a kick to come; Boks would’ve played differently after that and still found a way to win (like they did in the World Cup)
Thanks Tim, great review
100% o mahony should be done as an international player. Izechukwu is the future. Phenomenal athlete
Fair play to Farrell for making the big call and putting POM on the bench. He was awful in the last game, you can't be carrying your captain against SA away from home.
Hes on the bench mate
@@derekfelton8287 Read the sentence mate.
@@Camcolito yeah sorry i thought it was a good point - but im using the smae point to disagree with you mate
Bro my standard 5 teacher toled me : im not taking orders from you ,you little pipsqueak :)
Asusual great video my friend. Hope you enjoy the South African hospitality and rugby fanatics. Let us know.
Love these videos!
As this game is at sea level, I'm hoping that Ireland can last the distance. I lived in Joburg for 2 years and know how hard it is to adjust to the altitude - and that was without the physical challenges of rugby.
The Boks always play one or two games against visiting teams at altitude as it gives them a huge advantage. A turbo boosted home advantage!
This weekend it literally is a (sea) level playing field so I'm hoping the Irish can overcome the phycological blow of last weekend's loss and give it their all.
Let's face it, even with the huge home advantage, the Boks only just scraped a win.
Tim. It's fantastic that you have come out to enjoy what we have to offer. You have officially now become the new Guru of rugby. May your channel go from strength to strength. Keep it up Mate. Huge respect
I agree Tim, I think SA by 10/12 points but I hope I’m proved wrong and the boys get a win. Enjoy the game and looking forward to your videos in the sun up to it. ☘️🇮🇪
Flying down from a freezing joburg tomorrow morning. Hope to see you at Kings Park 🍻
Great video pal. Have a wonderful time in Durban, so sorry I missed seeing you on the B field at Loftus last week, would have been great to meet you. Always enjoy your content.
Cant wait to see the Kings Park outfields preview like Loftus was done last weekend. Keep up the good work Eggchaser!
Really enjoying your channel and views Tim ..always making a point and remaining objective ,not too mention its hard work and lots of intel. Well done ..SA by 12👍🏻👍🏻
Also like the way you add real time content to your channel of whats happening around you 👀🚴🏋🏄♂️🏉.
Enjoy SA🇿🇦
Hi Tim! Great content as always (besides that shocker of a selection of Josh above Siya). Let me know if you want to link up with some great SA Rugby podcasters when in Cape Town. They have access to players. Enjoy our beautiful country.
Beirne at 6 is huge, didn’t think Faz would do it but it gives 3 solid lineout options which should help the lineout which has stuttered to say the least. Herring on the bench and Ryan calling will hopefully shore it up.
Breakdown wise it frees Beirne up to get busy at rucks and cause some havoc. POM on the bench isn’t a bad sub to pull on when it’s hopefully a tight game.
Nice team - was worried POM would keep his starting place. Disappointed Izzy or Timoney weren’t given the no.20 jersey.
Tim, You are just brilliant in your presenting & knowledge + totally respect your honesty 👍 You are a very Good Man 👍
Beirne at. 6 ..yes!.........funny this team looks stronger than last weeks (beside DS)
I absolutely love Peter O Mahony but i dont think he should be starting anymore. It will be interesting to see how Murray controls the game and wether its a negative or a positive. Great to see ringrose back in a starting position too
agreed - O mahony of old would be a bulldog in a game like this. he doesn't have that any more.
Murray hopefully wont kick loads
Negative. Murray hasn't changed his playmaking since 2017
Strong Irish pack - think they’re definitely going to target the breakdown with Beirne at 6. Interesting game ahead! See you at kings park 🫡
Thanks for coming to Durban. The rugby at Kings Park should an experience for you to remember. Enjoy boet.
It’s a bummer that Ireland have sustained all the injuries they have sustained, but for some reason this team looks not only more balanced but also stronger. If I was an Irish supporter I’d be more confident in this team than the one from last weekend.🤷🏾♂️
I've a feeling we'll win this one.
There were many times we were able to dismantle SA last week, with improved accuracy this week i foresee a 10 point win. 27 - 17
The "dismantled" Springboks ran over your team last week.
@@lmarislmarislmaris4271Mate the dismatled Bok team left at least 3 tries out there and they were extremely rusty. Let's see Saturday, mate.😂😂😂
Lets be honest that first game could have gone either way..if a few decisions like the disallowed try went the other way Ireland would have won. The Springbok in me hope we are more clinical in the 2nd test which we should be. I think the Boks will go back to kicking and our more traditional style of rugby this time round...Rassie's up to his usual tricks of trying to catch the opposition off-guard which worked in the first test with the new expansive game..I can't wait for the full effect of Mr Brown's attack coaching starts manifesting! Everybody should watch Sky sports NZ's latest show and how John Kerwin, Mills, & Jeff changed their mind about our boring style of rugby..very entertaining to hear.
@@charlesskeen 💯 both teams were off it a bit. It will be interesting this weekend to see if either side jell a bit after learning from last weeks run out.
@@lmarislmarislmaris4271 take off the SA coloured glasses you're wearing.
Ireland flexing their depth. I love the URC because I know these players now. Lets goooo may the rugby be as free flowing as the beer!
Siya in, vd Flier out. Tadhg Beirne all day ❤. Crowley edges Pollard. Osborne for Willie. Looking forward to a great game. Hope the IRE team enjoyed their tour of SA.
Thanks for great analysis. Best rugby podcast. Enjoy the rest of your stay in SA.
Predict a 1 point win for Boks
This team does look pretty good. even the bench
Hi Tim, thxs onces again. I take it this game is for the ownership of the song Zombie/ Rassie ,the winner gets to use it LOL😂
As a Kiwi, will be cheering Ireland on. Phenomenal team in my opinion
So are you guys we love they all blacks in Ireland... when we beat you guys it was a marker of how far we came
Thanks Tim, enjoy the weather there , it is nicer than our summer
You are the best keep on going, i hope you enjoy south africa
great points, great analysis, great to listen to you, Tim...eventhough your prediction was, ha!! ...thankfully 'off'
Super well done to Ireland, & to drop-goal maestro C. Frawley
and lets bear in mind...no Hugo K. no J. Gibson-Park, no Mack H. no Dan S. no Aki, no Casey...gee!
Best rugbychannel on youtube. Saw you at Loftus.. Legend
Beirne at 6 finally, gives him way more opportunity to be a scourge around the park. Glad to see big stu on the bench. Seeing healy on the bench it's no surprise that David humphreys announced today that as of next year non of the irish provinces ar allowed to sign non irish qualified props due to the limited number we are producing
@101MIGHTYJOE agreed. Mccloskey is so underrated. Freak of an athlete. And as a munster fan, I always thought he was unfairly treated by Joe schmidt
Thanks Tim, great content as always.
Dr Doris' work rate phenomenal.
My prediction, Boks 32 VS 18 Ireland.
From a Bok supporter, much respect to the 'Boys in Green'.
Great video
No disrespect to PoM, but I prefer this back row. And James Ryan is quality. As a Bok supporter, this pack has me more concerned than last week's.
Agree.
Good luck to Ireland, but I must still be in the Green and Gold corner... Speaking of which, I hope we have our home kit to play in...
@@jeanm27 yes I've noticed a few Bok supporters saying that. I don't feel that way about our first choice jersey to be honest. I think with commercialisation different jerseys will be the norm eventually
Boks will b better this weekend. 3rd test together. All will step up to the occation. However. Never underestimate the Irish. They play to win. No game at this level is easy
We can name the same 23 cuz most of our players are made from a mixture of concrete and nails 😂
I just love watching your viewership increase everyday. Bring on 100k before you leave SA
Yes bring it on. Let's support Tim. Great analyst and ambassador.
Farrell has hit back with a clever pack selection. Ireland are making the best of it and we know they are fighters. Boks to win by single figures if Pollard kicks accurately
Well done again Tim. If we can beat South Africa without 3 of our best players....Sheehan, Bundi and Hugo Keenan it will be a miracle but us Irish believe in miracles
5....and JGP and Hanson
I forgot about Gibson Parke 🙈
@@mikemurray990 and Hanson
Yes Hanson 🫣. OMG this is our B team playing 👀🤣
@@mikemurray990 of course Cohen and Henderson also not to be sneezed at 😁
Well you got that wrong picking 4 Irish men in a combined 23👏🏻👏🏻
Fantastic game Ireland.
Tim is tanning in Durban while we're tripling up on layers in Cape Town. SA weather for ya!
Joburg has been cold also
Not a bad team considering everything. Healy has massive experience but it may have been better to put Jäger or Loughman on the bench. So happy to see McCloskey there, would have liked Cormac Izuchukwu to be given the chance off the bench too. It’s going to be another battle, I think we will do it by 5. Erin-Go-Bragh ☘💚🇮🇪
One major intangible is being overlooked. It may sound daft, but the Springbok's levels of collective motivation may have dropped, even if this is subconscious. The Springboks have reached all their immediate goals and challenges with their defeat of Ireland last Saturday. If this is the case is it not a mistake to select the same team? The hunger levels are possibly not there. If this is the case, then selecting those who are hungry to prove themselves at the Test match level may have been the way of getting aggregate motivation levels up to a winning level. Rassie may come to regret his no-change decision as the evidence of a lack of cutting-edge hunger for another victory takes hold of the Springboks out on the field. I predict an Ireland win for this reason.
I think the anger/hatred style ego they've embodied will be more than enough to sustain them. They want to pulverise Ireland. They know they're only half way there. I don't think the Irish psyche has what it takes to push back that level of hate style aggression. I expect they'll power through the match hoping to leave nothing behind but broken bodies.
Hey Eggs great show you got going and welcome to our awesome country enjoy the braai,beer,brandewyn,and of course the rugger
Always fair reviews
Ireland suffering a few end-of-season injuries, unfortunately. On the other hand, although the start of SA’s international season their player depth slightly obfuscates the extent of injuries in their camp.
I want Ireland to win
Think ur probably heading for a disappointment 🤣
Thought Sia had a massive game, and when that happens the team plays out of their socks.
I feel bad for Bundi ,I noticed his injury was serious.
I re-watched the match mid-week to see how long he carried the arm. At least 15 minutes. And he took more hits on the shoulder in that time. I would not be surprised if he needs surgical repair.
@@lmarislmarislmaris4271crazy stuff
Suspected all week he won’t make it. Think ITeland was hopeful
Only Willie and Kurt-Lee play at altitude in the starting 15, all the rest play at sea level, Japan, France or UK, so the altitude thing is actually a myth, it's pretty much the same thing for both sides.
But they were born there so are used to it doesn't matter where they play.
@@Trajan2401 no, it doesn’t work like that, you have acclimatise, if you are born in Jhb, move to Durban to live and then go up to Jhb to play the altitude hits you. As a former player I know what I am talking about, I’ve felt it.
Did a double take when I saw POM not starting and two extra when I saw no Bundi! Wow!
Andrew Porter did well by engaging early and eliminating the hit on the engage taking away what South Africa do well and he turned that into a wrestling match which meant the power coming through from the locks and Pieter Stef was creating strain on the front row. Second half when SA got ascendancy it was when Porter was off on the hit, normal service resumed
Still think Ringrose should be captain. Would be happier if JGP was playing but a decent side given the injuries.
I love the look of the team, given the injuries. Murray will need to be on rapid form. I think we’ll bring a game but won’t be enough I think.
The Boks will be better in this test...Ireland will need to be at their best to win..
Looking forward to this match
Springbok must not relax Ireland is a great side.
Braais on Saturday in the car park is great before and after game. Sometimes teams party after game also in the car park
Sounds like you have had a good visit tome to bring ypur family over.
My late father was one of the first to start the braais in the outer fields where the cars park.
I’m Irish living in America. I miss the Biltong. And a Beautiful Country. Lived in Johannesburg in the early 80s
For a few months. Should have stayed Longer. Good Luck to Both Teams on Saturday
Shouldn't have Healy - made the choice for two LH, didn't have Loughman, should play TOT. Should also have Jager instead of Bealham because he's an excellent TH and should have a shot + Nick, Cian, and / or Cormac at 14 (as he's a former 7s player, has the spatial awareness and speed to cause a tactical quagmire for Boks) on that bench.
Caolin is pronounced Kaylin or Kwaylin depending on where in Ireland you're from. Really impressed at your willingness to learn our weird names so there another one for you!
Kayl-in.
I think handre had a off day only if we talking about kicking but attacking he was great in the set up to the first try and his passing was cutting out players from the defense and made it easy for the next phase with willie to find space
That combined team really shows irelands injury crisis. Sheehan, Aki, JGP and Keenan would be in for me. And If Beirne was at 5 he would be too
34 22 ?? I’m an ardent Bok supporter but I think that’s a huge score. 😂 But we shall see look forward to your next video
Robbie got the snot knocked out of him (hit by the LUV TRAIN) and he is ready. What a champ. This is going to be EPIC!
You called it Tim!
