    You are missing one HUGE factor. Rassie and Siya and The Team united 62 Million people. The psychological safety he created in that team, modeling to the world what Madiba’s vision looks like on the ground in real life is a purpose so phenomenal, I am not sure what can ever beat that or recreate it elsewhere. Those guys LOVE each other. And South Africans love them and each other more for it. You cover 50% of what the winning recipe might be. Mechanics of Rugby. The magic however is in the other 50%. Love, Respect, Friendship, Purpose… Contributing to the greater good of a country where love always conquers. Where connection and reconnection of her people always come out tops. It’s a Purpose any Springbok Player would play more than their hearts out for. It’s infinite positive energy getting poured into the hearts and minds of every family and child in SA. Modeling what a greater SA actually looks like.

    What a brilliant take on the evolution of Springbok rugby. As s South African I'm very proud of what Rassie achieved with this team. His decision to choose Siya as captain was a master stroke and it paid off brilliantly. Siya grew into a great player and even a greater captain. He surely rates under the greatest captains ever of this beautiful game. As much as we celebrate this phenomenal success we can never deny the class of the All Blacks. They are still the giants of rugby and it's just a matter of time for them to reach their great heights again. Springbok vs All Blacks will always be the greatest rivalry in the game of rugby.

      I remember when I first heard Rassie is coming back to SA to be the Boks coach, the first thought was 'do the world know what is going to hit them'. I even scanned most of the well known overseas online rugby media sites but nobody seemed overly impressed by his appointment. Well, know the do even if they do it so grudingly.

    Awesome analysis! I feel there was one blaring factor that was not raised: Rassie was the first truly unifying Springbok coach. This team is playing not for themselves, but for the nation. He makes each SA rugby player, not just the current squad or training group, feel the weight of responsibility that they carry without inducing expectation paralysis.

      Rassie is king but there were some other fantastic coaches. I think it's worth a look into what could have happened if Jake White was not forced to resign and Peter De Villiers installed as coach / manager / puppet. He voluntarily and/or forcibly introduced affirmative action, made stupid decisions and let the team down completely. We must remember that the Boks won in 1995, 2007, 2019 and 2023. If I remember correctly Jake White had a very motivated team in 2007 before he was disposed of. What could have happened if he stayed on? Could the Springboks have won even more RWC finals?

      Unfortunately, there's teeny weeny chance of that happening ever. In fact the opposite. Till 95 we were always 2-3 wins ahead, then the 25 years of bush folk being taught about rugby. Of course the odd coloured chaps like chests,habana and a smattering of the odd other shone but mostly really poor players forced politically to participate drove those exorbitant numbers of losses up. 😢

    Great video, much respect from an Aussie-based, die-hard Bok & Blue Bulls fan. I think all Bok fans agree with Rassie's sentiments when accepting the 2019 Coach of the Year award after the Japan RWC win ... "the All Blacks set the bar .. we work every day to try and raise our game to that bar". Thank you to the All Blacks & their supporters .. you are the benchmark and always will be. There is no doubt that the AB's will rule the world again, probably sometime soon. But I have to say, it makes me enormously proud of what Rassie and Sia's boys are achieving and the manner they go about bringing hope to a nation that needs it desperately. Rugby is the ultimate winner. Go the Bokke (and the AB's)!!

    As a Saffa in Australia - This is a fantastic NZ view and so many people making negative comments about the narrative about braais etc is not on, this channel is trying to firstly acknowledge what Rassie done pay respect to that and RUGBY and the mutual respect the Kiwis and true Bok supporters have for each other as well as showing they understand a bit about our culture. I was in Wellington for work in 2006 or 2007 and watched a game at the Tin cup boks vs AB's - the boks lost but afterwards in my Springbok Jersey the AB supporters invited me and a colleague to some underground nightclubs and pubs when the bouncer said no Saffa's the Maori new friends said - it's ok bro they are with us we've got their backs and you will too- hangover was amazing for just that experience - we were so "under the influence" on the way home walking past the police station they asked if we were ok, thinking we would be arrested even the police were cool - asking if we needed help getting a cab home with us wearing Springbok Jerseys
    I also bumped into Jerry Collins (RIP what an amazing player) in the hotel lift the day before the game and said to him - "Be gentle on our boys tomorrow night" his response was " It's the Boks Bro, they are coming hard so we respect that - it's the best team on the day that will win tomorrow night"

Rassie comes up with the most insane ideas but his coaching staff are basically using high level stats and knowledge to implement these ideas. They too deserve a lot of recognition as they can quickly establish what the team needs and need to focus on in order to win a game in the space of a week. Also their comments and way of talking is hilarious on the series as 25% of their vocabulary is swear words😂

    Brilliant video, thank you. I admire your honesty, bearing in mind how passionate Kiwis are about their rugby. Another unmentioned reason for Rassie's success is the fact that he loves his country more than money. He is staying on as Bok coach instead of going overseas to coach some top club and earning insane amounts of euro currency. In the process, he is developing lots of new Bok stars while his huge squad is mastering the new Bok style of play. You take him away and it's a new coach, a new team, a new approach, and nothing works against the ABs. Another thing, if you are good enough to beat the ABs, you have the ability to beat every other team. That's how good the AB are.

Will just add, while Rassie is a tactical and man management genuis, his greatest skill has been to see the potential that opening up the game to the whole of South Africa could create and identifying the new skills and assests that would bring into our game. 60 million unique tribes of very different people, all coming from deep warrior traditions. South Africa was always the true sleeping giant of rugby ... we just could not figure away to come together and get the best out of our special rugby cocktail. Rassie's experience in the army (probably watching senior officers do a very similar job) is very much underappreciated in my opinion.

    I think RASSIE played a massive role in installing a mentality shift to be more aggressive in the carry and in the tackle in our forwards - getting everyone on the same page with our forwards with an emphasis on our physicality.
    We’ve always had big forwards but the DNA was lost a bit until RASSIE came along.
    Physicality also includes the fitness levels of the big men and then add a level of importance in representing your country

    @StevenBenjaminAuthor 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +20

    South African here - there's a lot of Rassie's moves that are interpreted as genius, which are simply common sense, but also stemming from necessity (using overseas based players due to weak rand). The bomb squad was innovative, but it stemmed from many (esp AB's) saying we need to tire the Bok forwards, make them move around the park, then in the 2nd half they'll fall away. So I credit Rassie for making a logical move but mainly for having the balls to pull it off

      So it was like foreign based clubs in effect, subsidizing SARU, as they pay top salaries outside SA keeping SA player employed and then Rassie can just track their progress with allignment camps etc. Great move. Unemotional decision about what can work and just do it.

      I think you are oversimplifying the "moves" Rassie made by calling it common sense and a byproduct of the need to include overseas based players.
      If you followed Rassie's coaching career from his time at the Cheetahs all the way to Director of SA rugby you will be aware that Rassie is a meticulous planner.
      The one key element of Rassie's success is his apparent high EQ, which enables him to get his players to buy into his plan. It also allows him to get into the heads of the opponents.

    Indeed Rassie is a Rainbow Nation's (SA) Rugby genius and the founder of this Rainbow Nation once said - "The greatest glory in living is not in never falling, but in rising everytime we fall" - this is exactly the impact and the kind of trajectory Rassie brought to the Spring Boks after the Boks were down and out for a good solid period of time - We love you Rassie - an Icon in the making through the game of Rugby - "Bashaye Rassie - Bashaye"

    South Africa broke 4 records on Saturday.

    2. We beat the All Blacks 4 times in a row since 1949.
    3. We are the first team to keep NZ try less since 2018.
    4. The first time WE kept NZ try less since 2001.
    Just to put all of this in perspective this shows how dominant NZ have been in World Rugby. We might have won the rwc 4 times but NZ is truly the best rugby nation EVER. They are the absolute pinnacle of this sport.

      We are a proud rugby nation robbed by Apartheid which then lead to quota systems for years which also robbed the world of the best Boks but we have finally thanks to Rassies message of unity got to a point where everyone has bought in to a 23 man squad where everyone is picked on Merit not colour. Once New Zealand allow overseas players to represent the black jersey too then we will finally after 50 years have the contesta of the past where on any given day one team can beat the other. You've had your 2 decades of dominance now we are having a purple patch. You are the team we love to hate but the respect is there maybe a little too much on our side for now. If we the Boks with our current squad click it's going to be a long day for anyone who plays us anywhere just like 2011 to 2017 ABs.

      Europe gave us a lifeline...it was not a popular decision as most fans didn't support the move...infact our franchises only officially start making money in 2026. So we are basically paying for the privilege of competing...our franchise players fly economy ( I feel sorry for our forwards) and have layovers in Doha...we're currently working on a deal with Emerits for direct flights. NZ and Aus really fucked us over...especially when you consider that the SA public is the largest Rugby watching public in the world.

    SA were the Cinderella men of World Rugby in 2019, following their annus horribilis in 2017 whete they dropped results against Argentina and Italy. No-one on earth not draped in a St George flag wanted England to win that RWC final. They've since become a frankly scary proposition, combining traditional South African forward power with sparkling backline play. Combined with rather helpful rule changes designed to favour a more defensive, European-style game, its a blend that few in World Rugby are likely to effectively match for a while to come.

    I was born and grew up South African, and will die an ardent Springbok supporter. Having said that, my mother is Kiwi and though we have always loved each other very much... that was not the case when it came to Boks/AB games. We loved rubbing in on each other when the other lost. Unforttunatley, I always hated it that we kept losing over the years, and I can see now it was because he had some bad coaches. We had some good ones that made it a good tight contest on the pitch, but the bad ones had us getting our butts kicked. Thanks for the very unbiased video, and I'm wondering how difficult that was for you. I hope we, like NZ, can create a culture of success and continuity from here on, because Rassie can't do it forever. If we can, SA and NZ will maintain this culture of passionate rivalry that has gone back over a century. Aus seems to be falling by the wayside as they have other sports they prefer and rugby union is sliding over there. I would love for us (SA & NZ) to maintain our iron grip over world rugby and always kick northern hemisphere butts, because that is the David and the Goliath. Yes, it can be said that SA & NZ are the big boys, but the NH has ALL the money.
