Bro and he said in his video about the springboks being back (about 2 years old that video) he can't help but picture siya kolisi not lifting the world cup... This guy just flat out called the world cup final fixture and result more than a year before it happened. He really is a psychic
@@senanbottomley9128 I actually believe France will be in the final again this World cup, they'll all be between 26 and 29 when the world cup comes around which is typically the prime of a player's career. Going to be a tough team to beat at home
Really good quality videos, funny, informative and very smart. One suggestion, slow it down a bit (I keep having to pause the video) but quality work mate keep it up!
As someone who lives along the M62 corridor, this is genuinely one of the most informative vids I've ever seen on the 15 a side game, really appreciate the detail!
Hey, I am a South African and was searching for some Faf De Klerk gameplay Compilations. However I stumbled upon this gold! I like your video style and analysis! Keep up the good work!
I don't really comment often online, but these are really great videos mate. I love rugby and these are really helping me learn more about the intricate things that go on during a game. Really good work man.
I’d like to see a full video on your thoughts about the premiership and how a restructure could change England rugby. I’d also like to hear what you think about Scotland’s club rugby, or lack of it, and how having a better professional scene could effect us, seeing as though compared to football (Scotland are much better at rugby than football) in which Scotland has 3 leagues of teams and seemingly only 2 professional rugby teams. Basically just a video on home nations club rugby and how it effects the national teams. Your videos are great though, keep them coming.
Tom Harding I think so too, I’d like to hear someone else’s opinion on how rugby in Scotland could be improved. I’m from Aberdeen, Scotland, and it really does feel like the national team is a borders team. Clearly Scotland can play rugby, but how do we get better
t1mothy_ I think Scotland would need more than two major teams as there’s plenty of highly populated cities like Aberdeen that don’t have major clubs. National dual contracts could work with Scotland but it wouldn’t give Scottish players lots of options to choose from so would be harder to tie them down. Scottish rugby is growing though and it’s only a matter of time till there are more teams.
My girlfriend is livid that I am late for dinner. I explained that work was keeping me back - it was actually your video and my desire to watch it twice.
Ive never watched rugby or had much interest in the sport but damn your videos are great! They are entertaining yet informative for someone as clueless as me to watch, I hope your channel grows alot more, great video as usual!
Good couple of laughs!!! Had to pause ALOT to catch all those inside jokes :) Keep up the good work! Would love to see a video on their performance against the boks this year.
Great video! I would love to see one about predictions regarding the upcoming England - South Africa tour. Also, it was a really great video, but one small suggestion, maybe try to speak a little slower in some parts. Usually it's pretty good, but I think when you get excited sometimes you tend to talk very fast is all :)
Good video man! The idea the rule change was designed to punish Jones is actually not a bad shout. Jones got his way on redefining the ruck, and this was the counter to that. Now he's sweating like a gypsy with a mortgage. Baxter in by the next world cup please!
I'm from America and just started watching this sport on TH-cam I'm very impressed. And even though I don't know what's going on half the time I'm enjoying it way more then the NFL here.
Excellent! This man has great commentary and sense of humour. Looking forward to the next one! My video suggestion would be how much trouble will Bristol cause next year in the Premiership? Are they Mordor or are they more dour (news for England rugby)... ahem... I'll leave the comedy to the professionals like Squidge
Are you going to be making videos on Southern hemisphere rugby as well? (Specifically South Africa. Because apparently as a South African, I haven't had enough of being frustrated yet.)
Even when England won 18 in a row, there were clear weaknesses - and Eddie Jones was open about some of them, and not so open about others, but still tried to address them. He tried to find a seven, but Harrison wasn't up to it and Clifford is always injured. Curry and Underhill have also been injured. Eddie Jones also constantly pointed out that England lacked leaders on the pitch and athleticism to turn defence into attack rugby. Hopefully sheer number of caps will solve the former and Mitchell/Wisemantle the latter.
you said you read all the comments so i thought id just let you know. ive no clue about how to play rugby or what position is meant to do what. but I find your videos really entertaining :)
Thank you!!! Finally someone prepared to talk about it. I thought I was the only one noticing all of this (bloody papers hyping England), especially that all England tries are scored from interceptions, charge downs and broken play.
. 1106 the Ozzie's decided in the early naughties to reduce fundng at grass roots and concentrate on high performance coaching. This backfired and then the only province that invested at grass roots level The Western Force was chucked out of Super Rugby (their players making the usual wooden spooners, the Rebels a success so far this yr).
Plus for the last 2-3 yrs of the Robbie Deans era there looked to be a player revolt with half the team barely trying (James O'Connor), since the ARU had poor depth and no obvious replacements, while a small number of players played themselves into the ground trying to do honour to being a Wallaby. Will Genia was the main player who ran himself ragged and eventually he left Oz for Europe to recuperate.
im two minutes in and ive had to pause the vid at least 20 times now... i wonder how long it will take me to read everything and still listen in one go
Another amazing video. Would it be possible to do a video on Danny Cipriani and other players that could save England but won't be for silly/ funny reasons?
Have you had a copyright strike your video we're just wondering because of the Nintendo music and how they put copyright strikes on people who do videos about video games.
What i mean is: there is so much more in rugby you have to learn from a coach at your club, than you can on the internet. As with all sports, but it's most common for rugby
Hey man, absolutely love the videos. I know you've heard it a million times, but I really wish the clips you picked were paced a bit slower - It's impossible to read all of your captions!
Love the interlude on Jones! Great vids, me and my mate chat about them whenever they come out. At some point in the future can you do one about the growing rugby in Japan?
Your Welsh so it would be fantastic to do a video about how Welsh regions work and how the catchment areas work, in particular, Blues or Ospreys! Love the videos and bizarre jokes and I'm aware this video idea is a niche but I think it could be very interesting!
I'd love to read all the text you write, as they are funny lines and also i tihnk important to the video. But if i was to pause to read all of them it would take so long to watch the video. I don't really have a solution, i just fell like you put a lot of effort into the text but it might not be read because there is so much of it and it is so quick
Love the videos dude! the best rugby channel in existence, could you do a video on why italy are so consistantly poor? people often go on about a lack of fitness, or the italian club teams beng poor etc, but benetton and ebre have gotten a lot better , the coaching staff is pretty high calibre, and with modern physcial science, surely their fitness training would be just as good as everybody else's?
Love these vids, really make me laugh but have a lot of thought behind them that really shines through. Agree with other comments though, need just a bit less text on screen. The bits that pop up are funny but if there are too many you need to pause to read them (cause i need to read everything - might be just me). Maybe too much of a good thing. Still the content is what draws me in and the care and attention you put in to each one is what will have me coming back. Keep up the good work man!
I love your vids man my only suggestion would be to make the little captions a bit longer I'm always pausing the video to read it pls pls pls pls pls pls
I remember playing against derby uni in the 2016-2017 season (for DMU) and I injured one of your players (6,3ish ginger lad) just wondering if you knew him and if he still plays?
Mate your videos are amazing. They are incredible One thing id say is that it can be so hard to keep up with your voice and the text on the screen, i think itd be great to try maybe speaking a bit slower, few more pauses and then let the text on the screen last longer. Maybe try it out or something but i love your stuff
That's an interesting point on the open side issue, especially when you consider England have consistently ignored specialist 7s since Neil Back (e.g. Steffon Armitage).
It's not really the suburbs. There are some council houses but its a 10 minute walk to the city centre. Twickenham is 10 miles from the centre of London.
SavageArfad haha true, 10 times the size of Dublin but Croke Park, or Landsdown, are both not really out in the suburbs. I'd call them the inner suburbs, would be equivalent to say having a stadium in London situated in Paddington or Islington. Which are the suburbs 200yrs ago, just like the areas the Croke Park and Landsdown are.
“Scramble back to an inevitable World Cup final next year”. Bloody psychic
Haha
Bro and he said in his video about the springboks being back (about 2 years old that video) he can't help but picture siya kolisi not lifting the world cup... This guy just flat out called the world cup final fixture and result more than a year before it happened. He really is a psychic
@@jacoventer4580 and he called france to be great this cycle and this 6 nations aint going too bad for them
@@senanbottomley9128 I actually believe France will be in the final again this World cup, they'll all be between 26 and 29 when the world cup comes around which is typically the prime of a player's career. Going to be a tough team to beat at home
@@senanbottomley9128 Wow.
Would love a video on the different rugby styles between leagues (pro14, prem, super rugby etc.) and how it influences international teams
This this this
that would be soooo good please please please do it
Yahh
This yws
Or as Andy Goode and the other guys on the rugby pod call them. Premiership, Pro NoOneCares and super touch.
*predicts England to be in the final.
*predicts South Africa to win it.
What is the sorcery?
Love how you called both England getting to the World Cup final and South Africa winning it before the tournament began
Really good quality videos, funny, informative and very smart. One suggestion, slow it down a bit (I keep having to pause the video) but quality work mate keep it up!

Your videos are class mate! Keep it up
Great vid, mate. Really insightful, funny and well produced. Thanks for taking the time. Will be sharing.
These videos are ridiculously good. I'm struggling to consider how they could improve other than perhaps more of them!All the best.
Brilliant commentary.Thank you. Precise, honest and to the point.
I don't really comment often online, but these are really great videos mate. I love rugby and these are really helping me learn more about the intricate things that go on during a game. Really good work man.
Got this recommended just after they beat New Zealand lol
and to me after they got emascualted by south africa lol
When they finally had 2 opensides, including Sam Underhill
Same
Yo be fair mairo itoga is kinda. Sepeculsit
This is the best rugby channel on the net. The shade thrown at howley is class
Probably my favourite channel on TH-cam right now
Possibly the greatest honest commentary on rugby ever ......... my hero , love your work

Your like the only person in the world that makes sense. God it’s nice to finally hear someone talk about rugby who knows what they are talking about.
9:23 😂 "sorry dad" - Owen Farrell
I hardly ever watch rugby, and know almost nothing about it but I have watched ever video on this channel! Nice videos dude
Good video man!

Just enjoyed your Connor Murray video and now your England video. Will share with my rugby friends. Thanks
Really enjoyed the video mate, good work. Looking forward to seeing more.
You are so on track with your comments about the stodge England plays and Hartley!
How am I only finding this now? Great stuff mate. Subbed.
Love the videos. Hands down best and funniest videos on youtube. Could you do a video on south africa and what went wrong?
Are you going to be making videos on Southern hemisphere rugby as well? (Specifically South Africa. Because apparently as a South African, I haven't had enough of being frustrated yet.)

I'm calling it - this will be the biggest rugby channel on TH-cam in under a year.
The humour in your videos is what I love about rugby
articulate whirlwind, so much info being thrown both verbally and visually it's overwhelming
I don't even watch XVs but I love these videos. Watching from Nairobi.
Your videos are utterly brilliant mate!!!
I genuinely love the amount you reference Thunderbirds in your videos
Thanks for this. I love the humour and I love the analysis. Great videos!
England should offer this guy a JOB. Your analysis is on point.
you said you read all the comments so i thought id just let you know. ive no clue about how to play rugby or what position is meant to do what. but I find your videos really entertaining :)
Thank you!!! Finally someone prepared to talk about it. I thought I was the only one noticing all of this (bloody papers hyping England), especially that all England tries are scored from interceptions, charge downs and broken play.
Do a video on Australia’s super inconsistent form that literally skyrockets and then plummets within a pubehair of time for no apparent reason
. 1106 the Ozzie's decided in the early naughties to reduce fundng at grass roots and concentrate on high performance coaching. This backfired and then the only province that invested at grass roots level The Western Force was chucked out of Super Rugby (their players making the usual wooden spooners, the Rebels a success so far this yr).

Keep it up mate, love these! Ever thought about covering why London Irish have been so shit/what Kidney and Kiss have changed up since their arrivals?
One of my favourite rugby videos I've seen in a long time
Hooked on these videos already, keep up the good work!
your videos make my day every time you upload
Great video! Video Idea: Analysis of Edinburgh Rugby before Richard Cockerill and Now.
Another amazing video. Would it be possible to do a video on Danny Cipriani and other players that could save England but won't be for silly/ funny reasons?
Great video again... pls could you make a video on the most effective attacking plays/moves????
Have you had a copyright strike your video we're just wondering because of the Nintendo music and how they put copyright strikes on people who do videos about video games.
I’ve never seen a video on this channel where Squidge sounds so angry and hateful and I love it!
I can't wait to see your comments on your recent losses to South Africa. Should be fun to watch.
You're amazing. We need more rugby news and more analysis. Along with the ability to communicate tactics
What i mean is: there is so much more in rugby you have to learn from a coach at your club, than you can on the internet. As with all sports, but it's most common for rugby
Hey man, absolutely love the videos. I know you've heard it a million times, but I really wish the clips you picked were paced a bit slower - It's impossible to read all of your captions!
The analysis in this vid exceeds anything the papers can offer please keep doing more
on behalf of the entire rugby community , THANK YOU for these videos
Bloody funny! From an Ireland fan keep it up! Let's all hope they keep Eddie Jones as coach. 🤣😃😄
Love the interlude on Jones! Great vids, me and my mate chat about them whenever they come out. At some point in the future can you do one about the growing rugby in Japan?
John Barclay "The kind of guy who beaks up a fight and pickpockets both their phones" Hahaha!
Your Welsh so it would be fantastic to do a video about how Welsh regions work and how the catchment areas work, in particular, Blues or Ospreys! Love the videos and bizarre jokes and I'm aware this video idea is a niche but I think it could be very interesting!
Fantastic analysis , Great video and funny !!

I don't really have a solution, i just fell like you put a lot of effort into the text but it might not be read because there is so much of it and it is so quick
Watch it at .75 speed... just about manageable!
Recommended the day after England lose to Wales, TH-cam just twisting the knife
Same here, instead after Ireland this time 😂😂🍀
The MJ piece about Shontayne Hape is comic gold. You sir are a hero
Great video mate keep them up! What about a preview of the Autumn Internationals / your thoughts?
Love the videos dude! the best rugby channel in existence, could you do a video on why italy are so consistantly poor? people often go on about a lack of fitness, or the italian club teams beng poor etc, but benetton and ebre have gotten a lot better , the coaching staff is pretty high calibre, and with modern physcial science, surely their fitness training would be just as good as everybody else's?
This is great love watching videos of rugby but also videos about rugby keep it up
Love these vids, really make me laugh but have a lot of thought behind them that really shines through.
Agree with other comments though, need just a bit less text on screen. The bits that pop up are funny but if there are too many you need to pause to read them (cause i need to read everything - might be just me). Maybe too much of a good thing.

Getting this recommended 10 minutes after England won the 2020 6 Nations
these videos are class. Well done
This is a great video - more on rugby tactics please
Funny rugby content finally... love the videos mate
Great video. Love to see a video on Leinsters strengths
i love these. I'd love them even more spoken a tiiiiny bit slower.
This guy is fucking awesome
Love the videos dude! Keep em coming.
I actually learn so much from your videos 🙏
Pocock 'yeah won't affect me'.... brillant!
This guy makes the best rugby videos on TH-cam
I love your vids man my only suggestion would be to make the little captions a bit longer I'm always pausing the video to read it pls pls pls pls pls pls
bro, i love this kind of vids! keep it up, you made me crack a laugh at work
This was a great video. I don't know loads about rugby, usually I don't understand what pundits etc are talking about.
These videos are epic. Having to wait for mroe content is definitely upsetting.
I remember playing against derby uni in the 2016-2017 season (for DMU) and I injured one of your players (6,3ish ginger lad) just wondering if you knew him and if he still plays?
Bit about the 2011 Wales team at the start was utter arse gravy but the rest of the video was really great :)
your videos are funny af u deserve all the views
Another good "un! I like seeing what you see in a team/game.
Mate your videos are amazing. They are incredible
One thing id say is that it can be so hard to keep up with your voice and the text on the screen, i think itd be great to try maybe speaking a bit slower, few more pauses and then let the text on the screen last longer. Maybe try it out or something but i love your stuff
Love the videos, funny yet informative and you clearly know your stuff
"who would have thought an Eddie Jones side would be at fault"
Me
As long as we beat the Welsh, we don't mind losing to anyone else 🏴🏴🏴
That's an interesting point on the open side issue, especially when you consider England have consistently ignored specialist 7s since Neil Back (e.g. Steffon Armitage).
this channel is awesome! keep up bro
I have become a subscriber. Love your commentary
I’m an English fan but still loved the video. Keep them up!!
Twickenham isn't that weird, Croke Park is build in the middle of Dublin's suburbs, it has houses built on the back of it
It's not really the suburbs. There are some council houses but its a 10 minute walk to the city centre. Twickenham is 10 miles from the centre of London.
Croke park is the GAA stadium not rugby, the rugby team plays out of the Aviva.
Twickenham is no where near the central London.
SavageArfad haha true, 10 times the size of Dublin but Croke Park, or Landsdown, are both not really out in the suburbs. I'd call them the inner suburbs, would be equivalent to say having a stadium in London situated in Paddington or Islington. Which are the suburbs 200yrs ago, just like the areas the Croke Park and Landsdown are.
Quality work Squidge. Quality work.
