"CHASING BRANNAS" | DEON FOURIE & JOHN DOBSON INTERVIEW
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 18 ก.ย. 2024
- They say 'never meet your heroes'...rubbish! Ever since I took the channel to France for the 2023 Rugby World Cup, I've spoken about the incredible story of Deon Fourie. When I said I was going to South Africa I made it a mission to meet the man and the myth. As you'll see, "Brannas" is a great guy. The absolute bonus is that I also got to spend time with the amazing rugby IQ, and all round good guy, that is John Dobson, Head Coach of the Stormers.
Rugby World Cup memories, Rassie Erasmus, a new URC story and the future of rugby are all discussed. Enjoy.

Deon's first time playing New Zealand and facing the Haka was in the world cup final...Amazing
What?? And he played like a beast. That is amazing yea.
@@w0tnessZAwhat about twickenham?
@@kingpower4631 Not in the 23 that day.
@@w0tnessZAlet's not revise history, Deion got all his throws wrong and was bring driven back in the scrum. Our line outs and scrims were fukked.
He did everything else well
I’m o😊😊😅😊 poppy I 😊😅😅😅😅😅😅😅 28:06
Cant believe you got this done. Well actually I can. Well done Tim, good man👌🏼
Deon has always been a great rugby player,watched him play from his early days at WP as hooker. Becoming a bok, playing in a rwc final and lead as a captain in the final is a career fullfilled. Well done deon.
To the point of the rugby crowds being more inclusive early in the video...I read Rassie's book, lent to me by (and the classification is necessary here) a 26yr old black lady at my work. That would NEVER have happened even 10-15yrs ago...much less pre- 1995. Rugby and Rassie has done wonders for our society. When the government learns Rassie's trick, SA will be unstoppable!
💯
@@KwizatsHaderach8 this speaks volumes. Rassie and his innovation and inspiration have worked immeasurably for the good of our beautiful country💪🏻🇿🇦💪🏽
Breh there's no magic that's gonna happen till the majority of the SA population gets to benifit from the countrie's wealth.
You're assuming incorrectly that the government wants to make SA unstoppable.
Tim, you quickly becoming the go to guy for in-depth rugby content, can't get enough, thank you.
John Dobson is such a top bloke. Love listening to him.
Once a Stormer always a Stormer.
You know Timmy, just thinking here...alot of us Saffas have been vocal and thanking you for your efforts here in SA, reflecting on our country and the rugby which is at great heights now...and the splendid job you do presenting SA to the rugby world.. But, it needs to be said : you're a credit to the English people: your honesty, your humble eloquence, your unbridled passion, your ability to embrace all we throw at you and simply your shared love of the game. Don't think you've been given sufficient credit for this. Please come back - we do mean it when we say you're an adoptive ambassador!
Deon is such a humble human being. Our kids are at the same wrestling club, so I see him quite often. He is exactly the same off the field as well. Reserved and respectful. Great guy.
Finally got your dream INTERVIEW ❤❤❤
Awesome! We were hoping that you did get your Deon interview, thought it didn’t happen. So chuffed
There is no way to better start the day 🥳
Thanks yet again Tim!
Thanks Tim. Now I'm late for work.
😂
Wow Tim.....what a guy. What a legend. And bringing in Deon. Oh mate. You need to move so South Africa.
For some of your viewers who maybe did not understand what Dobbers meant calling himself a "Soutie".
It is Afrikaans slang refering to some English speaking South Africans.
The best translation I can come up with would be Salty.
That describes a guy With his one foot in S A and the other in England and refers to the part dangling in the ocean!
What a bunch of legends “The future of rugby is in the past” wow 😮. Brannas you beauty, get back on the field. Dobbo the epitome of humbleness, and of course the best conversationalist is Tim the Eggchaser. Great content
Ah Deon Fourie. The man with the biggest heart. To win a World Cup at 37, playing almost the entire final, the last bit as captain, while carrying an injury, with family stress, playing out of position, against the New Zealand All Blacks… he’s just such a champion warrior. God bless you Deon Fourie you YSTER.
Thank you Tim for getting these awesome guys on the show. Credit to you as well for everything that you're willing to do. Lifelong fan here from SA.
Brilliant interview with top blokes. Deon's name will go down in history as the RWC final winning captain 2023 and who has never lost to the ABs. BRANNAS!!
Great great great interview, 2 legends of Western Cape rugby
@eggchasers - This was a landmark visit to SA as a content producer where you have officially gone next level!!! Boksoffice, this interview (which I loved the most), the collobaration with Keo & Zels ... wow!!!! Massive fan of yours and love that the authenticity of your content and very excited to see where this going next!!! Please do a NZ visit and get into the DNA of NZ rugby (?)
hes going next year
The moment we have all been waiting for! Get in Brannas and Timotjie Ndlovu!
I have to say that as a South African getting to hear these two gentlemen in conversation is such a treasure! You've outdone yourself Tim. Other people have said it before but it's worth repeating - getting to see our rugby through your eyes has given me an appreciation for the game in SA that we take for granted (a good example is Craven Week - it's just always been there - but you've made me realise how special it is). Baie dankie vir die video boet!
Rassie has the players to choose from, he uses the bench successfully, he uses the individual strengths to combine the effective team.
Tim the legends of the Cape right there. Ask Dobbo about his father... He was a even bigger legend
So glad you got your interview with Brannas and bonus with Dobo too . 🍻
As a subscriber and Stormers fan this is manna from heaven
What an insightful conversation. Thank you and thoroughly enjoyed this!
Oh my gosh Tim! It’s happened! I can’t wait to watch 😭
Excellent, interview! Wow, thank you, I enjoyed that a lot. We live in a golden age.
I think this Gloden age will last a long time if World Rugby does not stuff us round even more eg law changes.
Love the name of the video, in the South African context it is perfect!!!
Tim’s content has definitely improved
Honestly fast becoming the best rugby YT
Incredible content
Dobbo sitting there with his belly out like a proper South African ballie.
Rassie won't be around forever, and I think his biggest challenge is to plan for his successor. That would ensure that what he and his team of coaches, aministrators and players built up the past decade won't be lost overnight. The Doctor is wise enough to realise that, I'm sure.
They need to make a movie of this man's Springbok story. Oldest debutante, played out of position for basically a full game in the bloody RWC final against the bloody All Blacks. And to top it all off he was the bloody on-field captain at the final whistle..
Love this interview. Thank you Tim. From a Stormers supporter
Dobbo son of my old teacher and Brannas,wow what an interview
Thank you, Egg Chasers, for another Banger of a video, and we are so happy you got to do the interview old Dobbo and Deon !
Deon is a true insperation for a lot of people.
What an humble and great person
Awesome interview Tim, so glad your wish came true
one of the best......thank you
3 SOUTH AFRICAN LEGENDS
😂👍
This is great content! Was waiting for your interview with our Brannas and now we get the bonus of Dobbo as well! Thanks so much Tim!
Great interview. Top men.
What a fantastic episode - thank you, Tim!
Look like Tim has been chasing the South African sun?🥵
South Africa's sun needs no chasing. 😉
The african sun do the chasing...a hat and sunblock is essential (vir die rooi nek)❤
Tim you wanted meet Deon and you did good on ya bud he’s a great player
There is a lot of you tubers these days yet your shows have a class to them, and they stand out
As a south african. I loved this interview and i love how Dobbo speaks about the wrong of the past. Good one Egg chasers you earned a subscriber.
Someday there will be a guy with a solid spine who also speaks about the wrongs of the present.
What. A. Get! Great job on getting this interview, Tim! A few thoughts, if I may:
- Dobbo is 100% about transformation. Yes, the quota system was a pain but not only do we not have to count anymore, our player pool has increased by millions.
- Consider the fact that up until 1995 we were the most successful rugby side by sheer winning percentage. Obviously this was during the dark days of the past BUT we have that same DNA except now our player base is absolutely huge.
- Also consider the fact that the URC is not a domestic league for us, plus most of our Springboks don't play for SA teams. This is evidence of that enormous player base we've been building.
Methinks the future of Rugby in South Africa is burning bright.
Fantastic interview Tim, with two first class rugby folk; well worth the wait. Thanks for pursuing this. I can see Fourie as a top coach a few years down the road.
I have been waiting for this video for months, great to see it, finally. I'll edit this reply once I've actually watched it fully, lol
Well done Tim. Like a kid in a rugby shop. In your element. Happy for you. Cheers. 🍻
The Champions Cup needs to be a knockout tournament with top
Teams from URC, France, England played after those leagues are finished. Too much dilutes the excitement.
Tim fantastic content. Thank you. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Deon Fourie I well remember from his younger days. Unbelievable rugby player.
Well done Tim. Good interview and great guests.
I’m so glad that Dobbo touched on the point about how many kids in schools that aren’t model C or above aren’t getting a look in. When I read comments from other countries about how SA has 65 million people I always want to scream how so many of that number still don’t have access or choice to access rugby or facilities and coaching that will help them get to professional level. Imagine the talent we’re missing out on. This is not a criticism as I realise there is no easy solution but I hope it is something they are working on.
Great conversation between 3 absolute gents. Although I’m a Sharks fan I really enjoy listening to Dobbo and enjoy watching the Stormers play. This was a great watch!
Did I just fall back in love with the Stormers?😂
Magic stuff! Thanks Tim. Appreciated
Letsss gooooo Tim!
Great stuff once again Tim...going to your channel daily to check for new content...and offcourse saved videos on your comments and reactions during WC from quarters to finals in a RWC 23 we folder
Dobbo’s dad was an absolutely legend - loved him
Fantastic interview! So happy for you, Tim! There's the old saying..if you absolutely love the job, you will never have to work a single day in your career.
"The future of rugby is in the past"!
Lets go Tim!! Great work!
What would a Rassie interview be like!
Have to say, even though the Saffas are the toughest, roughest dudes on the pitch, they are all so down to earth and charming in normal circumstances. What fantastic ambassadors for their nation 👏🏻👏🏻
Even more heroes of the local game. So good to get to know the person behind the man.
Tim had a comment regarding why he does this channel, and that it was to showcase the game that gave him so much. Personally with the coverage he's given and getting to know the players, coaches and commentators better in a more relaxed and unscripted environment has made the game so much more appealing and interesting on a new level - class act Tim - you're busy accomplishing your mission. I hope the other countries you visit are as welcoming
Tim, you're very generous with all this amazing content.
Wow what an interview thanks Tim
Tim I believe in the next couple of years your channel will become the biggest rugby one on TH-cam. You're a legend man. And my word, Deon's legs look like a powerlifter's. Dobbo is such an articulate man as well, has a lot of poise. Your way or style of interview is the best in the game Tim, Love from a NZ based Saffa 👍
Tim, you’ve done amazingly well over in the mother land!! Getting on to the Bok Office and Keo and Zel’s, sitting with legendary people there! Keep up the good work boet
So glad for you, and us your viewers Tim. That was lekker interview.
Rugby is the bastion of sportsmanship and camaraderie, in all of professional sports. In my humble opinion, and your podcast sure as heck highlights this. No matter whether with guests or by yourself.
Could listen to Dobbo all day
Great interview … both South African legends… thank you Tim
And Brannas and Dobbo form part of the Rassie success story.
Awesome! Loved this❤
Amazing interview. Love these legends. Thanks Tim
Thanks Tim from a Namibian Springbok fan.
Hi Tim. The Natal Drakensberg is magnificent. Suggest Giant's Castle and Royal Natal Thendele national parks.
Mate, you should go to Hogsback in the eastern cape. Gem!
Top bloody work Tim. I always enjoy listening to Dobbo.
Lovely that our guys are so humble. Our very own Alfred E. Newman. What a stud!
Blessed with two videos today! Thank you Tim!
Tim......many thanks. Top top podcast. THIS is part of how to grow the game!
Congrats Tim! I love that you have come full circle. I still remember your video where you said you would love to interview Deon Fourie and here we are!!! This was amazing for me to see and you made it happen because of your fantastic content - Im excited to see where your channel is going to be next year this time 🎉🙏🏻
Great interview Tim!!!!🙌
You are a legend Tim. Thanks for filling up the "gaps" in the week with interesting content. Much appreciated.
Deon Fourie is a legend, he gave my 8 year old son his socks after the Boks beat the Wallabies in Sydney, those socks are framed and above my sons bed, he was born a Aussie but loves the Springboks and considers himself a South African because of Deons kind gesture 👌😊
Loved that, great to hear some story’s and insights from Dobbo and Brannas. Well done Tim! 👍
Awesome interview Tim
Thanks Tim, it’s all about the rugby, great show!
Thanks Tim, Dobbo & Deon. Great interview!
Really enjoyed this one, lekka Tim
I absolutely love Deon Fourie
We're privileged to have a such a lekker rugby culture 😊
Amazing philosophy’s from both at the end. Great interview throughout!
FINALLY 🎉❤
💪🇿🇦🏆🤟
Amazing interview two of the greatest talents for The Stormers and WP rugby 🏉
Great interview, great blokes, great episode!!!
What a great show, Thanks Tim
