This may sound silly, but I'm genuinely sad that Jacques is leaving. This team, including coaching staff, has become so important to us as South Africans. This is our team. These are our people.
@@bertrand727They haven't decided. Rassie will apparently cover coach position immediately following world cup. They want to promote an internal candidate but I don't think that works so well. Pool of candidates is very small. I don't know if he would want it but SARU should try and get Ronan O'Gara.
But foreigners are great at helping us with technical skills (Aled Walter, Felix Jones, Eddie Jones etc) - so maybe ROG would take an Assistant Coach role?
I was born in 1968, and yesterday, within a span of 85 minutes, I aged to 75! There was a time when I started chewing my dog's toenails cause it was the only ones left.😂🤣
Thank you Jean Philippe…it was a 50/50 game that could have gone either way. So very impressed with many, many players in your team. Truly great skill, courage and tenacity.
Arendse is such an underrated player. Every time he was near the ball he was sheer class. Of all wingers, I NEVER see him fall off tackles, electric speed and great under the high ball

I'm Irish so obviously this weekend was very tough but rugby as a product, my God! I'm genuinely baffled how anyone would watch soccer over this magnificent sport.
I'm sure it's heartbreaking to go out by one point at home, but the French can hold their heads up high. That was rugby of the highest calibre and truly could have gone either way. That game will echo throughout history as one of the greatest ever played. I know that I speak for all South Africans when I say that the French have earned our respect. Vive la France!
We didn't see the same game sir. Not at all, it will be remember as one of the biggest robbery ever. Exactly like 1995 and 2011, we never forgot it. One more time a ref scandal at the highest rugby level and everything is fine. Congrats Commonwealth you made it one more time ! Frenchies will never forget this new chapter you can trust me.

Keo's comment 5min30, it was an AB like performance. We know better than most how the AB's have an ability to win games they should lose. Being denied ball and territory and still finding quick scores on the counter. The number of times we've been on the receiving end of that exact outcome. It's just magic to get it done this time.
You scored from French mistakes tho. 3 French men jumping for the ball for the Arendse try. Cameron Woki losing another high ball.. Jalibert backward penalty which eventually ended up with Etzebeths try.. South Africa's luck was in.
Our subs had a huge impact, there's didn't. You can argue that the moment they made their substitutions is when momentum shifted. Squad depth and rotation is what won us that game.
Every time the French made subs I felt better and better because the player going off was always better with us it felt more like yes this is what we need at this stage of the game. The difference I think
Look ahead to the final and you'll come unstuck. Thats exactly what France and Ireland were doing. You have to beat England and NZ have to beat the Pumas first. It might be a risk to rest your best players.
Terrible day on Saturday with the RWC running out of referees. First, Jaco Peyper got injured, and then both Dan Biggar and Johnny Sexton got dumped out of the RWC. At least Owen Farrell is around for a few more days to assist refs with their decision-making.
I thought Kitshoff didn’t have the greatest game. He gave away a few silly breakdown penalties and was slow to react when Du Pont quick tapped for the one try.
The Springboks felt that they did everything that needed to be done last night. What occurred to me when watching them after the match was how disappointed the Springboks felt because they couldn't make the French feel a little better for the loss
@keo....it is not only South Africans who support springboks, am Kenyan and support the Boks, am sure there are so many around the world Bok supporters.
Ireland and Leinster fan here. First of all, huge regards and respect to the Springboks and All Black teams. They totally deserve to go through to the next round at the expense of Ireland and France. I'm aching in pain atm and it shows no sign of going away. Thank Zels for not rubbing our noses in it too much and expressing hope for the future of Irish rugby. Best quarter finals ever!
Years of running and being chased by gangsters in Kraaifontein trained Cheslin how to run 22m in 2 seconds! We should thank the ouens for Cheslin's speed. He was running away from gangster tik koppe!😂
France collapsed the scrum a few times without any penalty from the ref. Even the comentators were baffled. So i think the French were also lucky a few times.
@@Carbojacoabsolutely not. Eben shouldn’t have been a red at all. It had all the hallmarks of mitigation and being a yellow. He clearly dropped his level on the tackle a lot, and the France guy completely shifted his body weight last second.

This weekend has been an absolute SHOWCASE, the winner being RUGBY. I do not know of another sport that can have you in suspense for 80+ minutes 4 times in a major competition. MONSTROUSLY EPIC !!!
In the words of the great Leon Schuster "En die manne van die Hanne, hulle try nie meer daars net tranne..." 🤣🤣🤣 Hier kom die bokke, hier kom die bokke!
Been watching rugby since 1994 - best weekend of rugby I've ever seen, hands down. Glad to see you guys throwing some respect the ABs way, they've been through a lot of tribulations and they're showing that grit that we love and respect!
During his transformation Ramos takes a maximum of 3 seconds between the moment he takes off and the moment he kicks the ball, which means that the South African player took 3 seconds to cover 25 metres, i.e. 100 m in 12 seconds. Have U.Bolt play a high-intensity rugby match for 30 minutes and have him run a 100 m on a grass pitch immediately afterwards, I guarantee you that he won't do it in 12 seconds and it's Bolt, so there's been cheating!
As an Ireland supporter I am gutted, I think we had the ABs on the ropes from a psychological viewpoint, we just needed a good start to maintain the doubt. Instead 2 soft penalties, 6 points up and Ireland chasing the game, ABs I control from that point, defending and clinical breaks. Ireland put in a massive effort and were amazing to get back to one point. The penalties against Porter in the scrum broke the back of Irelands chances, they had to work hard for their points and should have secured the held up try. NZ and SA, both 3 times winners, just seemed to get the little bit of luck at the most crucial times, but it could be down to greater belief making that 'luck'
@@timbaker4253 You'll not be the most successful team in a couple of weeks, with SA on fire at the minute, being successful in the past clearly helps, but NZ got off to a dream start and just managed to hang on at the end, in the past the AB's would have been out of sight by half time. Ireland really needed a fast start to get the energy going.
@@geoffnelson6756learn some history grasshopper check the history. Since neutral referees came in you only win 28.5% against the Abs. You would need to win the next 30 tests in a row to be ahead of us in tests, ps we usually beat you at world cups as well
@@geoffnelson6756 Actually ABs are. 77%+ winning record and a winning record against EVERY nation. Boks record against ABs isn't even close so please, get used to it - deal with it
Agree Keo, French were outstanding and du Pont is pure class. He used those little running kicks over the mauls to huge affect and put the Boks under immence pressure. Not a bad tactic, never good to turn and run back to defending. Just saying 😉. The Boks desparation and fighting spirit won us the game.
Thanks you guys give us a awesome word cup. Your show is just crazy interesting. I am currently in Michigan and following the word cup on my phone. The reviews on TH-cam is my bread and butter. I showed an American guy the highlights. I wish I could capture his face on camera he could not believe the action blood sweat and tears. Shame they miss a lot. Bokke bo. Thanks
I've only just recovered from the celebrations of last night's win. We as South Africans can be immensely proud of this effort. Possibly the greatest test of all time!
@@MaxMax-zs3gpsame O Keefe who gave SA the most marginal of yellow cards? Denied SA a clear offside penalty when going for a drop kick? Let Du Pont get away with only a penalty for holding on 1m from his line with 3 SA players on him? Go touch some grass pal👍
NZ lad here. Freaking love you guys man, all our lads went out and did their jobs, Argentina got in there too. Australia not so much but it doesn't matter, Fiji did a good job on theirs as well all things considered.
Surprised you never mentioned Damian`s mark and call scrum. Never seen that. Another genius coach call. We needed a set piece play to gain dominance and tie up their forwards at the same time. I bet other coaches took note of that play and we might see it again soon.
The difference between us, the All Blacks, and the Springboks vs other teams is when we lead we don't look back 99% of the time...when we are down, we have the ability to come back 90% of the time. I predicted and wished before the RWC to have the All Blacks vs Springboks in the Final.
THe team selection was spot on. Faf and pollard were way off the pace when they got on. Pollard made 4 horrible defensive reads. THe offense is so much better with Reinachnat 9. Will be surprised if the team changes for the rest of the big dance
One thing that i've learned is that we Irish will never be accepted by rugby royalty. It was fine in the past when we were competitive and the plucky underdog's. But the minute we started beating the big dogs regularly that became a problem. We have now been labelled as "arrogant" by the most arrogant of all rugby playing nations. A nice bit of gaslighting from the N Z media. We're not going to go away, we'll be back to wipe those smug smiles off your faces.
Well played my Bokke brothers, see you in the final. Don't try that Dwayne hia at 55 minutes, followed by a Peter SDT hia, followed by bonghi replacement though. We are on to you....
What a game, both teams put on a show. The Boks came through, but it was close. Great for rugby overall. Boks will take this cup again, they are tough guys
Keo, you did not drink during the match, because you wanted to remember it. Very respectable. The rest of us just remember whether we won or lost. We don't even remember the score. We have to watch the replay the next day to find all of that out.😂
This may sound silly, but I'm genuinely sad that Jacques is leaving. This team, including coaching staff, has become so important to us as South Africans. This is our team. These are our people.

Agree Keo, French were outstanding and du Pont is pure class. He used those little running kicks over the mauls to huge affect and put the Boks under immence pressure. Not a bad tactic, never good to turn and run back to defending. Just saying 😉. The Boks desparation and fighting spirit won us the game.
Nothing like a taste of Keo and Zels after a blistering match
Thanks you guys give us a awesome word cup. Your show is just crazy interesting.
I am currently in Michigan and following the word cup on my phone. The reviews on TH-cam is my bread and butter.
I showed an American guy the highlights. I wish I could capture his face on camera he could not believe the action blood sweat and tears. Shame they miss a lot. Bokke bo. Thanks
Great comment about Libbock at 1130. That’s why they pay you the big bucks! Great show
Arguably the gutsiest performance i have ever seen from any sports team.. go bokke.. so proud..👌👌
Arguable not even close……what are you smoking.
Bokka is an international brand sorry South Africans we are also attracted to winners
How did Eben not get man of the Match? To use a local term; he has so much Mana. Good luck against the Poms. Confident you will squeeze them.
Come on boys eat humble pie about the ABS!
Money Man, please send Keo and Zels to France for the final
I've only just recovered from the celebrations of last night's win. We as South Africans can be immensely proud of this effort. Possibly the greatest test of all time!
And you can be also proud about your best player O'Keeffe, what a great match, just astonishing. I can't wait to see him lift the trophy this year !
@@MaxMax-zs3gpsame O Keefe who gave SA the most marginal of yellow cards? Denied SA a clear offside penalty when going for a drop kick? Let Du Pont get away with only a penalty for holding on 1m from his line with 3 SA players on him? Go touch some grass pal👍
@@MaxMax-zs3gp are you Irish or French?
@@willieexplore He's salty!
@@MaxMax-zs3gpheal ndoda heal....go see the doctor or therapy can help😂😂😂😂
There was no point having Willie in that squad might as well have had another forward
He shud have been yankt off when he dropt the ball.
Damian Willemse is so much better than him. Moodey should be backup back
I still dont really understand what I saw last night. That was God-mode rugby by both teams but just a little bit extra by the #Springboks
NZ lad here. Freaking love you guys man, all our lads went out and did their jobs, Argentina got in there too. Australia not so much but it doesn't matter, Fiji did a good job on theirs as well all things considered.
Kwagga was in beastmode what a bench boks have
Manie Le Bok!😎🙏🏆🥇
Cheslin was a beast. My man of the match for sure. Epic game. Totally traumatized. Still suffering from PTSD.
Not PSDT he had a pretty good game too😅
Why is no one talking about Jesse Kriel?
Foster Imposters? 😂😂😂 Cane for king. Can’t wait for the final. Two best teams will be there (hopefully)!
French tried to Blitzkrieg us but they ran out of puff. Boks just weathered the storm and threw counter punches at the right time.
Mates!!!! Jessie Kriel was large.
Surprised you never mentioned Damian`s mark and call scrum. Never seen that. Another genius coach call. We needed a set piece play to gain dominance and tie up their forwards at the same time. I bet other coaches took note of that play and we might see it again soon.
The difference between us, the All Blacks, and the Springboks vs other teams is when we lead we don't look back 99% of the time...when we are down, we have the ability to come back 90% of the time.
I predicted and wished before the RWC to have the All Blacks vs Springboks in the Final.
Ill not disrespect ENG, even though I should 😂😂😂, but a final with the Boks and ABs to be the first team to 4 WCs just sounds so much better.
Simply beautiful. Simply outstanding.
We will see 1995 play off. History in the making
With the fixing of the tournament, the poisoning and many much more?? Just asking…

Lord😂😂😂 stop it. All Black 1995 lost accept and move on.
@@Giga_squirrel178 thank you. It looks like this dude is just waiting for me to say something to get a stab in.
Gee@@damienpenicaud2256cut it out you're stirring are you even a kiwi
I believe Jean Kleyn is the first Irish international to make a RWC semifinal 😂
Only downside. I backed an all Southern Hemisphere semi final line-up. Narrowly missed out - but last night was the big compensation.
THe team selection was spot on. Faf and pollard were way off the pace when they got on. Pollard made 4 horrible defensive reads. THe offense is so much better with Reinachnat 9. Will be surprised if the team changes for the rest of the big dance
Arendse kicked the ball out at the end..
Who else is wearing thier Bok jersey this fine Monday??
Mate I'm sorry but the ab's defended 37 phases... plus didn't have any knock on. 5 scrums the whole game.
One thing that i've learned is that we Irish will never be accepted by rugby royalty. It was fine in the past when we were competitive and the plucky underdog's. But the minute we started beating the big dogs regularly that became a problem. We have now been labelled as "arrogant" by the most arrogant of all rugby playing nations. A nice bit of gaslighting from the N Z media. We're not going to go away, we'll be back to wipe those smug smiles off your faces.
Perhaps if you had worn the no1 crown more comfortably other nations wouldn't get irritated with you?
@@NickSterson Like bow and scrape in front of the Almighty A.B's?
Well played my Bokke brothers, see you in the final. Don't try that Dwayne hia at 55 minutes, followed by a Peter SDT hia, followed by bonghi replacement though. We are on to you....
What a game, both teams put on a show. The Boks came through, but it was close. Great for rugby overall. Boks will take this cup again, they are tough guys
Why does everybody i know, always mistake Kolbe for Arendse, even Keo? 😂 come on man give my man Arendse his due 😂
That drop kick kolbe missed could’ve been the deciding factor
Having the experience in the last 20 minutes absolutely helped the Boks. No other team has a bench like us.
Boks showed alot of character 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
You’re closing comments about Eddie Jones, was a corker😂😂😂
Guys Thanx for a brilliant show, love the banter and relevant information from both of you guys. I dont miss a episode.
Keo, you did not drink during the match, because you wanted to remember it. Very respectable. The rest of us just remember whether we won or lost. We don't even remember the score. We have to watch the replay the next day to find all of that out.😂
Please keep faf off the field !!!
Well played Boks
'The Gees' is the word yu guys are looking. Unbreakable spirit. Fucking giants, the lot of them.
i aged 10 years last night. well done bokke well done
