I love rugby, it's impossible not to I'm south african. South Africans are a very diverse group, the blacks have some big guys with crazy athleticism. And the Afrikaners are huge, those people are generally massive and strong. We have schools where Atleast 90% of the boys are playing rugby. Rugby is a culture and we have an abundance of talent. There can never be a talent drain for rugby in south Africa cause there's infite talent. Even when Saffas go and play abroad etc we still produce guys that are better. The genes for rugby are very good and the general warrior spirit of our blacks and Afrikaners makes them tough as nails.
The sheer amount of school boys that play rugby here is actually staggering. We have more prospects than any nation in the world. Need to start creating real systems to develop and incorporate these players into South African Rugby.
For me I wish rugby was more accessible in south Africa... Its still mostly played at former model c schools... So most coloured and black kids will never get a chance to play this sport... Rugby is only played in less the 25 percent of South African schools....
@@madimetjamahlatse9270 Yeah I mean it's actually mostly played in Afrikaans schools for sure. I am a white (English) South African and none of the schools I went to in my school career offered rugby. That was more than a decade ago, so I hope things have changed.
For me, the scary thing about South Africa is that the talent pool is virtually untapped. The moment black schools start playing rugby and have access to proper coaching resources, structures, and facilities, I think there will be a massive explosion of talent. We are talking two-thirds of the population here. The black talent we have in the system now isn't even the tip of the iceberg. While I have made reference to race, that is purely for context. My point is that there is a massive opportunity to increase our talent pool and improve the quality of competition for top-tier places.
Too true NextGenXV you've got a great channel in that regard, love seeing your updates on SA's boys coming through and our future stars I'm excited to say the least, rugby has an interesting future indeed
South African schoolboys will benefit from senior players leaving for Europe because that's sometimes the only reason we lose them to the game overall. Many schoolboy teams here could compete with top division pro teams in other countries.
Loving these perspectives of South Africans. Comment on the chirping: We don't enjoy chirping, we would rather under chirp and over perform physically, than over chirp and not man up physically. Seems like a common theme from the Europe boys ;)
Saffas do enjoying ‘chirping’. They’re just really crap at it. They’re mouthy when they win and they’re even more mouthy when they lose, even when losing to the likes of Japan and Italy. They’ve also lost half of their tests this year and just finished 3rd in the RC - so much for this “fronting up”. What a load of macho bollocks 😂😂
@@dirkcrafford1814 That’s called having a fragile ego and terrible insecurity. If banter/sledging makes you want to hit people then you probably need to take a good hard look in the mirror along with some man up pills. Oh and find a sense of humour somewhere.
Bro the rate that SA schoolboy rugby players grow in size from the age of 16-17/18 is unreal There are a few U17's that changed from our school to a new one in a nearby town that were ranked higher in the country. And you wouldn't believe how some of them grew and put size on faster than a bodybuilder who's taking 3 types of steroids simultaneously. One of the was like 95kg at 16 years old,but after changing to the new school he added almost 20kg of muscle mass in less than 6 months. Like how on earth is that possible....
It’s called growth hormone. I played against Francois Steyn at school boys level. He was built like a beanpole. When I saw him again months later lining up for the Sharks, he was the size of a house. That doesn’t happen without PEDs. It’s physiologically impossible.

Totally agree with you. The talent pool in SA and in Africa as a whole has no equal but the problem in the black schools are not just the lack of facilities and finances, it is also the unionised culture of the teaching staff as they want additional payment for extramural activities after hours and over weekends.
One of the huge problems with English speakers is they assume they have are the creators of wit, sarcasm and banter. It's a human thing NOT a cultural thing.
Great show but commenting on school boy rugby peds when your own country does zero testing is a bit rich. Rather get the home nations to start testing and then consider commenting.
Calling a braai a BBQ is more illegal than SA schoolboys dubbing the Scottish National anthem 😂. English is a second language for most of the players on the Springboks - possible explanation for lack of banter in English? But you guys wouldn’t actually have said half the stuff you did here if a South African was present - just sore about the World Cup still 😅🤣.
Nope from schoolboy level upwards their is a myriad of other issues killing that talent from filtering into the system. Sadly a number of people are forced to leave due to policies that are enforcing selection of certain players in teams. That's a factor but that upper tier system is also invested by incompetence and poor management. They tend to play the non South African way with over kicking and obsession around defence which just destroys all creativity

There is definitely doping problem is SA schools rugby, as a parent who had my son skipped over because we wouldnt do it, I know. And its very much a money thing from the schools, the sponsorships winning brings, no care in the world to the wellbeing of the boys. Its why we almost never see the highschool super stars transfer to senior lvl, where suddenly drug testing becomes a thing when its not done at school lvl. I was in hospital twice for surgery and both times more multiple rugby boys from the one major rugby highschool in the had boys in the ward for kidney failure (doctors confirmed cause of doping supplements). The doping itself is not an SA rugby issie, its a schools issue, its about the money tied into sponsorships from winning.
