For me he is the best player I've seen. I would like to read a book where he dictates his decisions made on the field. Just to see the game through his eyes. I believe his mind was one of his best attributes.
I've never seen a No 9 completely run a game the way he did. Loads of other scrum halves have had their special attributes, but FDP had an almost psychic ability to make the correct decision almost every time. He even knew how to put his forwards through gaps if he was on the other side of the field! I miss watching this champion play
As a black South African I have to say the only national team that has united the nation and made us proud over and over again has been the Springboks. Cricket and soccer have let us down as often as the Boks have made us proud. I love my country and these heroes 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
I have watched them all since 1950 and some greats among them, Dawie de Villiers, Nelie Smit, and Joost van der Westhuize, but the best was Fourie du Preez.
The humility of rugby players are just off the charts!! Here sits arguably the greatest thinking scrumhalf of all time sitting and chatting like he is some regular oak...
Talks about a balanced life, that was his game, best balanced player in the world. Just watch the first England game at the 2007 RWC and you will see one of the best performances of a rugby player and more so scrummie. Humble, intelligent and an absolute legend! Ps. I'm a province boy through and through
This guy was so great at 9 that Springboks went through their most successful era without having a complete flyahalf. Butch James was not a game dictator and Morne Steyn was there as a specialist kicker. Can you imagine if Fourie Du Preez' prime coincided with a great fly half like Andre Pretorius in his prime. That 9/10 channel would've been insane
I always liked Butch James but I agree, he never seemed like an out and out 10. He seemed like he would have been more effective at 12, as long as he wasn't getting sent off for reckless play 😂 obviously nobody was taking JDV out of that Bok team when he was fit, but did they ever try Butch James at 12? Who replaced de Villiers when he got injured at the '07 WC? Was it Frans Steyn?
As one of the loyal 38 viewers, I can say that this episode has been amazing! Great to hear Japan stories and learn about different approaches about rugby in different cultures. Keep the show these way - not too many questions, just true Rugby legends talking casually. This spirit of camaraderie is what makes Rugby great.
Another great show with a great player and gentleman.Fourie didn’t see Schalk coming like witblitz for that tackle. Jean cracked the biggest laugh ever with the best bad joke so far😂
Definitely the best scrum half I’ve ever seen play the game! Great to learn a little about the person behind the player. Liked how much he spoke about balance. Great show Guys!
At least we can watch it here unlike Supersport who don't even show (allow) any Currie Cup or Super Rugby highlights! Soooo stingy!! That was the only thing I enjoyed about the Rainbow Cup- the highlights!!
Great show fellows; it exemplifies why rugby is such a great world game; a suggestion - bring a few overseas (non-RSA) guys on to the show every now and again. Kudos to you all & many of your guests - doing it on air in your 2nd language ‘nogal’!
True, Ritchie McCaw should not have won that one in 2009, this awards are subjective. Even McCaw knew that he was not the best all round player that year. He was not too keen to receive the award but took it nonetheless.
JDV YOU EVEN HAD ME LAUGHING 😂 LIKE CRAZY WITH THE FIRST BAD JOKE..😭🤣🇿🇦KEEP THE FIRE 🔥 BURNING YOU AND SCALLA..GREAT GUEST ON THE SHOW!!!BIG UP FOURIE DU PREEZ!FROM A CAPETONIAN IN THE UK!AT THE END OUR BLOOD WILL ALWAYS BE GREEN!🙏🇿🇦👊🏾👍
It's fascinating to see the juxtaposition between his slightly shy and socially awkward demeanor and then overlay that with his accolades as one of the greatest to have ever played the game.

😂 🤣 The best moments of these episodes are the talks, off of the rugby field...
As a 10,from Kenya? But in club rugby n even high school played alot at 9,lol,thanks guys,uve cracked me up, sometimes the scrum half is the general of the team
@@mickser101 brother what you on Pfizer or Johnson and Johnson stop smoking the vaccine it's prohibited.fourie in 2009 was on another level .champion with bulls ,tri nation's winner ,beating the lions .All year he was the navigator of the Bokke .mentoring and guiding a young Morne steyn.Irony of all mccaw didnt even played a full season .Plus his abs lost 3 times against the Bokke .Bod what did he win that year.Bod was a skillful player in his day ,but not in a class of Frank bunce ,Daniel Gerber, Ma nonu ,jacque fourie ,jason little or Tim horan ..Can't understand why Bod gets talk as this superstar.Overrated period ...Fourie being rated as the toughest opponent by Graham Henry...
@@mamoersebaas2654 What he won with the Bulls in 09 is IRRELEVANT. Just Like BOD winning European Cup in 09 is irrelevant. It's International player of the year, not club and international player of the year. McCaw diddn't deserve it but if you have a great Nov. series you've a great shot at winning it which McCaw did and BOD and De Preez diddn't. End of.
Jean De Villiers the greatest number 12 in History jammer boys De Villiers on top FOREVER fourie Du preez best number 9 ever Skalla ook baas maar Jean De villiers bly my HERO
39 😎 lol I watch more of you guys then I do rugby since they started getting over political I sure hope no one kneels against the lions or I will support the lions I swear. If any lives are to be protected now it's farmers
@@oldman774 yeah I know, but it must be so weird for them. Afrikaans people don't like speaking English, especially when speaking to a fellow Afrikaner
@@queenelizabethii3635 Not so sure, as an Afrikaner myself more than half my day doing business is in English, obviously due to wanting a wider audience they put up the show in Englsih, a guy like Fourie du Preez is more comfortable in Afrikaans as most guys from Pretoria are. If their show was on a local Afrikaans channel their target market would be different.

Best nr 9 to ever play the game!
100% Agree
For me he is the best player I've seen. I would like to read a book where he dictates his decisions made on the field. Just to see the game through his eyes. I believe his mind was one of his best attributes.
Joost van der Westhuizen had by far the best pass.
I can't actually pick one. The Boks was blessed and still blessed to have super no 9's
I've never seen a No 9 completely run a game the way he did. Loads of other scrum halves have had their special attributes, but FDP had an almost psychic ability to make the correct decision almost every time.

I have watched them all since 1950 and some greats among them, Dawie de Villiers, Nelie Smit, and Joost van der Westhuize, but the best was Fourie du Preez.
Even a kiwi can acknowledge these 3 legends of the game. Enjoyed this interview.
Best scrumhalf ever for bulls and boks
Truly enjoy the show. Fourie was the best scrummy in green and gold. He could read the game like no other
The humility of rugby players are just off the charts!! Here sits arguably the greatest thinking scrumhalf of all time sitting and chatting like he is some regular oak...
You said oak? Nothing is more South African than oak. Greetings to you, brother 🇿🇦🇿🇦
Those Legendary Bulls VS Crusaders semi finals had international intensity.
Talks about a balanced life, that was his game, best balanced player in the world. Just watch the first England game at the 2007 RWC and you will see one of the best performances of a rugby player and more so scrummie. Humble, intelligent and an absolute legend!
Ps. I'm a province boy through and through
and argentina in the semis
Greatest scrum half in the history of scrum-halfing💯
This guy was so great at 9 that Springboks went through their most successful era without having a complete flyahalf. Butch James was not a game dictator and Morne Steyn was there as a specialist kicker.

Legendary rugby player, this dude would turn the tide every moment during a game. All 3 of these dudes were straight Beasts.
My favourite player of all time. Was a genius on the field.
I once read an article that said Fourie Du Preez with one leg is still the best rugby player in the world - 100% agree.

Watching use it or loose it all the way from the USA! Love it!
Another great show with a great player and gentleman.Fourie didn’t see Schalk coming like witblitz for that tackle.
Jean cracked the biggest laugh ever with the best bad joke so far😂
One of the greatest scrum-halves to have ever played the game! Even Aaron Smith has said Fourie Du Preez is his favorite.
Gents, the show is great. Happy to be one of the 38 viewers.
Following you from Italy.
Enjoyed his humility very much. Fantastic player!
How do you even start to pick your favorite Springbok rugby player ever? U start the list with Fourie du Preez. Miss seeing you in action Champ.
Awesome show....great stories from these legends....will tell all my fellow kiwis about this podcast
Such a great and humble man
best 9 I've seen, Aaron smith a close second
Definitely the best scrum half I’ve ever seen play the game! Great to learn a little about the person behind the player. Liked how much he spoke about balance. Great show Guys!
Best springbok 9 no doubt
Love this show. Watching from the usa

Just one word. ....... CLASS!
24:25 no its not an easy thing to spot. You are a mastermind of the game Mnr Du Preez...
Awesome show guys! Thanks for the memories!!!
Greatest 9 to play the game. Robbed of world player of the year.

Best 9 ever
Most complete scrummie ever. Just GREAT
The legend himself Fourie the best 9 in history .
This guy was extremely talented
Best 9 to ever play the game
Love the show from NZ. That hit on Fourie would've broken most guys, Schalk....respect, one of the most feared Boks in NZ.
Another superb episode. Thanks Gents
The film/editing crew have given up trying to hide the beers!! 😂
No use! Scalla is dors! hahaha
@@UseItorLoseItShow when is he not lol

Great show again guys, please interview Juan Smith
I enjoyed this episode. Nice to hear about rugby in Japan. Really enlightening
I was there in Twickenham for that try against Wales, and will never forget it!
Another quality interview. Thanks guys!
Love the Quick Fire Questions Segment!
Great show, great guys! 💪
"The greatest mind''
Hard work, sacrafice makes a legend.
Excellent craic…..three legends
As a 10,from Kenya? But in club rugby n even high school played alot at 9,lol,thanks guys,uve cracked me up, sometimes the scrum half is the general of the team

Jirre boys ive never seen such dance moves during a golf swing...😂
Best rugby show
O fok k volg die show,en Jule ouens laat lag my lekker.goed om Jule legendes bymekaar te sien.
Good job 👏
Enige manier hoe ons die op spotify of iets kan kry dat mens dit in die kar kan luister?
Three Legends!
Fourie the best 9 ever, Joost the better rugby player. Both exelent.
How the northern hemisphere voted against him not becoming world rugby player of the year 2009...Pathetic..
McCaw won it but O'Driscoll deserved it
He won the Super 14, Tri Nations and Lions tour that year and was instrumental in ALL of them.
@@blaquenguni9249 players dont even achieve that in a career nevermind one year!!!

Fourie du preez best scrumhalf since Joost Van der Westhuizen.
Wow all three of them: Statesmen!!!
Legend..
Damn Fourie is very quiet guy.
Would be helpful to provide subtitles for the Afrikaans bits if possible. For the international fans.
gee mekaar n soentjie.
Try this....what did they find in John Lennon's coffin ? A dead beetle.
GOAT.
Fourie is a legend, but it really looked like he didn't enjoy the show at all!
It's just his laid back personality.
Nice dankie
classic ouens!
Jean De Villiers the greatest number 12 in History jammer boys De Villiers on top FOREVER fourie Du preez best number 9 ever Skalla ook baas maar Jean De villiers bly my HERO
juan sounds pissed
AB nightmare
Best bad jokes sofar.
addicted to the bad jokes section.....
39 😎 lol I watch more of you guys then I do rugby since they started getting over political I sure hope no one kneels against the lions or I will support the lions I swear. If any lives are to be protected now it's farmers
bit of a bang? ag...
🇿🇦💪🏽👊🏾👍🇿🇦
Jean het sy grappie-game gebring, die keer...
Julle manne moet asb, vir Jah Blezz ook gaan kuier !
2nd only to Joost.
This guy replaced joost and and rassie found a replacement for him that sleeps with south African undies
A myth a legend hahaha .the only one is Jonah lomu
i make hope alot of profits on my investment since i started trading with mr patrick brown
Definitely be close but genuinely, he is 3rd behind gregan and joost
Why don't you guys speak Afrikaans and have subtitles?
Because they want to cater to a larger audience than just Afrikaners
