- This week we bring you a collection of some of the best tries scored by Eastern Province during the 1980's. These tries were originally part of the series of videos titled 101 Tryline Tales and Tryline Tales 2.
Enjoy and thanks for watching!
What a player Danie Gerber was. Best number 13 of all time.
Brian O'Driscoll would like a word
@@tsherwood2112 no where near the same league.
@@brettwilkinson9529 exactly. BoD was better than any other 13 by miles
@@tsherwood2112 over rated player playing in the minor league Home Nations. Barely played against Southern Hemisphere side and when he was available, he was either injured ( 2005) or dropped ( 2013) from the side. Gerber, Sella, Bruce Robertson, Bunce were all superior centers.
@@brettwilkinson9529 just so you know how dumb you sound, here's a direct quote:
"O'Driscoll is the fourth most-capped player in rugby union history, having played 141 test matches: 133 for Ireland (83 as captain), and 8 for the Lions. He scored 46 tries for Ireland and 1 try for the Lions in 2001, making him the highest try scorer of all time in Irish Rugby. He is the 8th-highest try scorer in international rugby union history, and the highest scoring centre of all time.
O'Driscoll holds the Six Nations record for most tries scored with 26. He has scored the most Heineken Cup tries (30) by an Irishman. O'Driscoll was chosen as Player of the Tournament in the 2006, 2007 and 2009 Six Nations Championships.
He was inducted into the World Rugby Hall of Fame on 17 November 2016 at the opening ceremony for the Hall's first location in Rugby, Warwickshire."
I miss this era of EP.
Danie was 'The Maestro of the Mid-Field': peerless.🏴☠☘.
Awesome video. Awesome channel. Danie Gerber was unbelievably good. Amazing to see such crowds for currie cup. Sad its not what it used to be
Thanks for the support and the kind words!
What a pity that despite the presence of Danie Gerber and Garth Wright, that Eastern Province never managed to win the Currie Cup. It took Natal 100 years, but if Eastern Province can manage to keep their players and even approach Ian Mc Kintosh there is no doubt that they will win the Currie Cup for the first time. They have produced some magnificent Craven Week players over the years.
It's just crazy considering the amount of talent produced by the EP that they have never won the Currie Cup.
Most of EP players were bought by other provinces. Money!!!!!
The Danie Gerber show
Very good video thanks.
Just sad to see EP then vs now
hey please .... ep was always kak
@@zido4484 just because they never won the Currie Cup? Is strong smaller teams not important for the broader health of sport in a country, like in the old days, Boland, Eastern Transvaal...?
@@zido4484 They we’re once regarded as the 6th test union team, at least in the 1980’s.
The one and only Danie Gerber!!
Came expecting 6:31 of Danie Gerber highlights...and I was not disappointed! ;)
Best South African player ever in Danie Gerber. One of the worst stadiums ever in Boet Erasmus. I saw Naas kick over from the corner to win the series in 81 and then I saw the best test I have ever seen in 84 against England. I was 8 and 11 at the time, still remember it. My mom and sister sat with their test tickets in the car listening to the game over the radio in 81, because of the rain.
Malan, the test series against the British Lions, captained by Billy Beaumont (current chairman of World Rugby), was in 1980. Naas Botha converted a try by Gerrie Germishuys in the third test in PE from the corner in rainy weather on a muddy field to clinch the four-test series with a lead of 3-0, after the Springboks also won the first test in Cape Town and the second in Bloemfontein. The British Lions won the last test in Pretoria, but Morné du Plessis's team won the series 3-1.
You mean 1980 against the British Lions not 1981
@@mr.f.j.vandervyver7090 Yes you are correct my mistake, it was the Jaguars with Hugo Porta and then the Lions, 81 was in NZ with the flour bombs.
What about "domkrag"?
They had Frans Erasmus and Adri Geldenhuys in the pack.Doesnt matter if Danie went inside,straight over or outside,it was tata goodbye every single time,no wing could match his blinding pace.
When rugby was rugby
Gavin het a suster gehad mooi syt goed geswen Annette Cowley ❤❤❤
The highly gifted Gavin Cowley should have played for the Boks.
Wow, great backs. Were their forwards any good?
They had some tough, hard grafters in their pack over the years. No superstars in the pack, but guys like Anton Barnard, Nico Meyer and Frans Erasmus were brilliant. Erasmus was an unsung heronin South African rugby
@@RealRugby brings back memories as we use to go to Boet Erasmus stadium as laaitjies and watch these guys. Lots of boks came from OP back in the day and then move off to bigger unions. Great content.
a few forward passes there 🤣
Hoe stop jy di Gerber neeee ekk weeti weet julle❤❤❤❤❤
What a pity despite that Eastern Province had quality players like Springboks Anton Barnard, Danie Gerber and Garth Wright in their midst never managed to won the Currie Cup to date. I appeal to The Eastern Province Rugby Union to approach Ian Mc Kintosh to coach them and then hopefully they will win the Currie Cup for the first time in their history. They must also try to keep their players.
What the hell happened with Eastern Province/Southern Kings? All the talent goes away, is catastrophic
Thanx to the unnecessary stupidity of modern rugby rule changes, the tackle at 4:30 would be considered illegal today and also a red card offense; Absolutely ridiculous. Glad I got to play rugby before the effeminate crowd took over. Thanx for the video.
Was nog mooi rugby...... Deesdae vervelige storie.
Niks beter as die ou O.P. nie!!
en tog kon hulle nooit die currie beker wen nie , net die lion beker
@@dawiebenjamin3249 Ek weet, maar hulle was ‘n paar keer uitgekroek om na die CB finaal toe te gaan.
@@user-jn7tc3tp2x would like to know more about this.
