As a bok supporter it’s sad seeing the tenor of some comments here; we had a few big chunks of luck coupled with guts & some skill & teamwork & won by the skin of our teeth. Let’s try to be more gracious in victory. I know many bok supporters & they’d all express similar sentiments to me i.e. ‘whew, that was close!’ Thanks for great chat guys; Matt an unbelievable talent.
Thanks Sean, its nice to hear a positive and kind comment from a Bok supporter. South Africa deserved to win in the end. They probably had the best temperament in the big knockout games and they had a few things go there way in tight games which every team needs. However, there is very little between South Africa, France, Ireland and New Zealand. They are all excellent teams capable of beating each other on a given day. If we were to run the tournament again any one of these four could win the cup. It is good for the sport that there is no outright dominant team as New Zealand were from 2010 to 2015 although I'm sure Kiwis will disagree.
@@neilmontgomery3470 can't speak for all kiwis but I think we're generally enjoying that the ABs are coming right, and enjoy the tight international game, but our domestic rugby is seriously stuffed. The rugby community here kinda suffering and a rwc win would've been quite nice and uplifting. Now, I'm particularly concerned about the future of the game here 🫤
To the OP, great comment. I'm in NZ and my SA mates a little mixed, but mostly very gracious. Certainly not like internet comments. Fwiw, some kiwis have gone off the deep end with conspiracy theories, but generally, most ppl agree that the Boks kicking, defence and discipline was the difference
A great team who play great rugby however if you want to take something on board the level of arrogance and nasty comments from ( many) boks fans over the world cup and beyond has not won your team many followers in fact quite the opposite.
NZ ruled rugby for years players and fans were humble, boks have won two WCs on the bounce and all teams apart from the boks are shite .
No respect and that's simply not rugby
@@paddyryan6113absolutely, man. Credit to this guy for being a class act, but it's literally the only fanbase I can't take to.
RWC2023 was a wonderful spectacle and amazing advert.
Jim is a top class interviewer
Great interview as always.. I love the Rugby Pod. RWC2023 was brilliant to be at. I'm from Galway.
I was so sad when Ireland lost the QF (I had semi and final weekends pre booked as well). Looking forward to the 6 Natons now.💚☘️🏉
Big Jim killing it.. big fan from 🇿🇦
Jeez Mack Hansen in Vegas after winning the World Cup would have been insane
Tough result for Ireland but the ABs have been in that situation at many RWCs - talked with many Kiwis and we would easily have traded the series loss for the QF win..so it was a great result for NZ
Watching as an impartial, without Wayne Barnes’s dreadful penalty calls against Andrew porter which should have been penalties the other direction-no run of the green or momentum and the Irish not chasing the game. Different game.
Same story with ABs V RSA, a Wayne Barnes Special. ABs try should have stood and world rugby have just admitted it publicly.
Great chat guys… legend
i have never felt as much hype as I did the week leading up to the Ireland South Africa game, everything after was not at that pitch, even the quarter final
You just know by the glint in his eye that this boy is a handful. Hope his rugby carries on in the same upward trajectory.
Never really knew or took note of your playing days Jim, you only really caught my attention when you at an early prediction tapped the Springboks to win in 2019, and it got me thinking about what insight you had at the time to make that call. It turned out you were corect. That got me paying attention to you. At RWC I followed you all the time. You do a GREAT job bud. Be well!
I'm an Eng supporter and I was dissappointed Ireland didn't get through. But what makes a great team is how they come back from defeat.
🥱

@@clemfandango619 let the frenchies get the better of them again, even handed a first group stage loss now. Nz have had more to lose in the last 2 WCs and simply can‘t stop the slow rut..
@@karlosdeevsthe Frenchies and Spuds win when victory isn't crucial.
Can’t wait for the France Ireland match. France can really feel more hard done by than Ireland given the pool draws for RWC and home turf. So that one will decide the 6 nations.
Don't know what you are on about. Ireland had a much tougher draw than the French.
@@imntg6649 yes of course they did. Maybe I could be more clear. France just had one tough match that they would have had to field their first team for and it was the first match of the pool, so they could literally cruise to the quarter with plenty of analysis of the quarter finalist opposition and able to rest or restore key players for it. And they didn’t even have to win that first match for a almost guaranteed spot given the remainder of the competition in their group. Ireland despite winning all games could not be certain of quarter until the completion of the last group game against Scotland, so we had to field a first team against nearly all.
My man loves the bokke so much, the Gold standard. Lekker, I love this.
As a SAn I hope you're talking about loadshedding from last Christmas cause we haven't had loadshedding in a while here in SA and even during Christmas we didn't have it
very good....mack is one of the lads...would like to know more how he feels playing for ireland.can see conflict but very natural and understandable..
The worst thing as an Irish fan was that the team didn't play to their potential. They were maybe 85-90% of where they were before. AB well deserved the win but you cant give a team like that such a lead in the first quarter. I think most of us would rather be number 4 or 5 coming into the WC and have a couple close losses before rather than this shit of being number 1 for the year or 2 before.
This excuse is so tired. ABs were far from prefect in that game. The difference? ABs overcame it and Ireland didn't.
Ireland played against 14 for a quarter of match. 90% should have been enough.
😅😅😅😅😅😅
Rassie seems a mixture of old & new school; gives the players hell at times but also shows ‘love’ & consideration for the players. Unlike Eddie, he & others like him don’t put themselves first, it’s country, the supporters/people back home & the players first.
All Aussie fans should move to Ireland too ! They can vacay back home.
SA will make it 3 in a row for sure !!
Ireland v France was the final in everybody's hearts
Larkham is called bernie because he was so chilled on and off the pitch he reminded them of the dead guy Bernie in weekend at bernies.
Ha ha - The Kiwi coaches didn't click as Wallaby coaches but the Aussie Jones certainly clacked!
In Brisbane, this Christmas weather is shite. Either fuckin boiling, or pissing raining
We don't have a choice when the ANC shut off the power, Jim!! 😂🇿🇦
Wheres old mate from?kiwi or ozzie?
If there is one thing we Irish are not, it is arrogant. Beating SA in the quarters was more a relief and sharing the joy with the supporters. As a race we prefer to be the underdog. Against NZ the scrum and line out beat us- we were second rate in both. If u can't get ur set piece sorted then u have no chance of winning anything.
Raaaaaassie, Raaassie.....🎶🎵🎼😂
Your pronouncing of RG name is fine. The only difference is the one is English and the other one is the Afrikaans prounanstiation.
*pronunciation
What beat ireland was henshaw injury ..they missed him big time.fact is they needed his defence .. prob would have battered kiwi,s with him. Major player
12 days now without load shedding 😂
Slight correction on min 19:40 , South Africa beat NZ by their biggest margin in history before WC
All Blacks also responsible for Springboks biggest loss 57-0
Wins and losses are there for both teams
RG is Snyman' s initials...not his first name. The alphabets R and G are pronounced like that in Afrikaans. Of course, in English, you would pronounce his initials as it's pronounced in English🙄
Btw, Mack, we'll borrow some power for next year's tour should you make it into the Ireland team.👍👍🤣💚💛🇿🇦
errr gheea is the afrikaans pronunciation and ar G is the english pronunciation
Please share more about the loadshedding plight. The ANC gov truly destroyed the hope of the South African people. But thx to coming to our Country.
Come on my fellow South Africans...stop giving the Irish a hard time. They're good people. It's the English we don't like...remember.
Take it from an AB fan. Being the "best team in the world" has NOTHING to do with the RWC. Reference RWC1995 RWC1999, RWC2003, RWC2007.
Pro tip: The pool is merely the process to get into the playoffs. AND EVERY PLAYOFF GAME IS AN ACTUAL FINAL, NOT A PATHWAY TO THE FINAL.
Yea you just have a target on your back really. But this #1 in the world is breeding a new normal, where we now expect to handle this tag and next step is bringing it through a tournament, like New Zealand it's creating a standard and building on it. Ireland aren't going anywhere for a while and that's the mentality required to build
@sean7258 yeah, remembering there's NO link between rankings & RWC is key. Any "new normal" can quickly become a false expectation by fans hyped up by media & pundits. Been there, done that.
SA franchises operate on a FRACTION of the budget that, lets say, Leinster or Munster do (not to mention the English teams)! It makes the win that much more rewarding and deserving! Yes, our players are scattered around the world looking for a big pay day but then having to bring them all together for a relatively short period of time is remarkable!! Ireland get 95% of their players from Munster or Leinster so continuity is pretty easy!! That is the massive difference between SA and other nations! Imagine all our Boks played in domestic SA competitions!?!? 😮 Yes we learn from other competitions but continuity is often the key! Hulle weet nie wat ons weet nie!! 🇿🇦🏆🇿🇦
This interview was about Ireland!
Can’t any South Africans just allow a country to reflect, be interviewed, and be able to show common decency?
Majority of people are heartily sick of South Africans taking over every site and throwing the RWC win down people’s throats.
Ireland are a phenomenal team. They were unlucky not to have made the semis….but they threw their heart and soul into the game.
Show some respect and sportsmanship!
Why did you comment this on this video? Are you aware that countries other than your own exist? The average IQ of online Bok fans is staggeringly low
They have more money because they’re European team that are well looked after and supported. South Africa has x10 the population of ireland, which is way more important than how much money you have got.
SA fans are proper knob heads. There's an element of class to every other fanbase in the sport.
love it...i remember the irish gloating after beating the Springboks...yea....quarter final hangover hey!... of course the almighty Springboks won the 2023 RWC ...again and again and again......and.....again!!!!!
And now you're the one gloating 😂
Didn't beat Ireland doesn't count Buddy...you have '0' world cups too. If you can't beat the best your not the best. Remember that number 2
And they Ireland really thought the cup was theirs to loose at that stage
Sad enough fellah aren’t you
Ireland at the end of the day they were not good enough to beat New Zealand but the Springboks were. Best team in the World deservedly won RWC23. Period.
And yet Ireland beat you.
@@sharronwood4486you can borrow a World cup from us😊😊😊😊
@@sharronwood4486let's look at the last 20 years and see how many times Ireland have beaten boks lol. We let u win the group game we could have smashed in more tries but elected to kick, we wanted abs in final. U people are irrelevant lol
just 7 times to be exact compared to 6 victories for South Africa@@hospagalief
@@patman142 lol 18 wins to 7 for the boks and that's recent history, let's not look at last 50 years lol cos you guys are shit. Win a single knockout game of rugby then give us a shout. We the best expansive team in the world now and the best forward pack, guarantee we win the next world cup too, no matter what Ireland do lol
Import some of the South Africans to help the Irish😊
I reckon they will deport some sa boy,s..Mr syman a walking hospital...😂😂😂 .. or send them to Scotland..they take anybody from sa.😂😂😂😂😂
I reckon two sa boy,s that play for ulster those two chocolate teapot,s will be thrown out soon.

@@ianjacobs2998 reason why syman did not play for ireland..he didn't make the grade he was no longer good enough. Fact😂😂😂😂😂
Du Pond is overrated, he actually makes alot of mistakes on defense. Also, SA scored directly after turning the ball over from him.
To say he is the best player ever is absolutely ridiculous. I would put him in the top 100 of all time but he is far from the best. Lomu is and will always be the best.
Stick to you,r comic books mate. These guy,s and world know,s he is one of the best..😂😂😂
Lomu is overrated as fuck, couldn’t even score tries against South Africa
Here's the thing if Ireland were such a good team why didn't they win the world cup. I think why they didn't win the world cup is because of mentality and playing the same team every match.
They didn’t win because they came up against New Zealand who on the day showed up the game they played was decided by two or three decisions and events. The mentality is normally they crumble in quarter-finals and they didn’t do that this time. They were in it all the way to the end. Every time New Zealand tried to pull away Ireland drag themselves back into it. It was literally a 50-50 game it could’ve gone either way but someone had to take the loss unfortunately it was .
Ireland were #1 in the world ranking and had a huge winning streak until their QF. That's why they were considered one of the favorites to win it outright. They beat SA in the pool stages too which added to their impressive winning streak.
Did they deserve to win the world cup? No. They didn't have their best performance against NZ when it mattered most.
A lot has been said about the SA coaching ticket but SA have the best natural talent (forwards and backs) so the coaches have the best players to work with. NZ and France have some amazingly gifted players and they tend to play with more flair than the saffas but SA have the forwards to win the 50/50 battles and lightning wingers to go the length of the field when needed. Ireland are a very good side but they will never be able to truly compete with SAs strength in depth. How many of those current Irish 1st 15 would make the SA 23? Not many, is the answer. Maybe 5 or 6 players? That's it.
All the Irish players play their club rugby in Ireland but they still need to buy imports to compete at the highest level in Europe. Meanwhile, the best Boks are playing their club rugby all over the planet- Japan, France, England, Ireland etc and the saffa club sides are made up of exclusively home grown players.
Ireland are doing as good as they can with what they have. It's good to see them consistently competing with and beating sides like SA, NZ, France. Go back a few decades and Ireland were nowhere near the level they're at these days. Despite their QF exit, they're by far the most improved 'tier 1' side since rugby went pro 27 years ago. So, when you talk about mentality, you've got a point. That's what happens when historically your side were the favorites to win the wooden spoon every 5 nations game, not the grand slam.
@@ciaranbrk Ireland didn't crumble but I think you'd agree with me that they didn't bring their A game for the QF? Unfortunately, we can't measure how much mentality played a factor in their performance. There's been a lot of hype around Irelands world class back row but they went missing in the QF. I honestly think Porter was hard done by at scrumtime on a couple of occasions but those are the breaks. Ireland bravely fought their way back into the game and had their chances to win it but ultimately they weren't good enough.
I think the biggest issue with Ireland is their backline and always has been. Ireland are not known for having game changing wingers. You've always been lacking in that department. When 4 of your starting backline are SH players, you know there's a problem in Ireland with home grown talent despite that fact you'll hear the Irish pundits telling us Ireland/Leinster have a conveyor belt of players. Take away the foreign born starters and you're looking at Jimmy O'Brien, Stockdale, Larmour... etc They're good players but none of them would start for NZ, SA or France, not even close. Realistically, Ireland can't compete 'strength in depth' wise with sides like SA.
Small margins , the tough group , forced their hand and nz rested and planned for 7 weeks, only test they had was france , fatigue in the long tournament counted, ireland looked flat and also their attack was pedestrian and easy to read at the end of nz game, Joe smidt had the Irish attack down pat. So sad for ireland, they have a great team play beautiful rugby at speed
@@PB22559 what are you on..kiwi,s have more foreign player,s than anyone. Pot calling kettle black...silly comment.
Here is a idea. After Ireland the "#1" in the world lose their 10th quarter final invite them to Rassie's house for a BBQ I hear he lives in a 5 story Palace😂😂
Grief shoud be for teams that get close to winning. Being bounced out in the quarters is nowhere near that.
Ireland couldn’t win a raffle much less a worldcup

Oh, sorry, 😂 return of the crap 👍
Lol Ireland supporters still believe that they won the boks because they were the better team lol nah if the boks wanted to beat yall they would've
But they didn’t! Ireland beat the Boks
The best team in the World is the one that won the World Cup. Get over it and except it. You can't sugar coat it to make Ireland sound better.
So Argentina and England are better than them. You beat a 14 man New Zealand team by 1 point, we were beaten by them by four points with us not playing at our best. It was a tight tournament with a lot of criticism about the draw.
Sorry no they aren’t. This Irish team only lost three times in two years they are better than the springboks. Showing up once every four years doesn’t make you the best if you’re don’t show up the three years in between. Haven’t won a rugby championship in four years.
Ireland were the best team in the world for 18 months and are now ranked number two. Everyone knows South Africa won the the World Cup so they are the best now. It's pathetic they way South Africans have to go on every Irish interest rugby site and troll Irish fans. Ireland are still one of the best teams in the world and the only team South Africa hasn't beaten in this World Cup cycle. They lost a tight match against one of the finalist who went on to lose the final by a single point. Furthermore, the ingredients are there for further achievement with continued success of the Irish provinces and a great player development program in the country as a whole. The players that are coming up will be better than the current ones and we have some of the best coaches in the world to develop them. We have only really been a world class team for about 5 years now, it's just the beginning.
Springboks are the world champions, # 2 is not a winner, # 3 no one remembers. … finish last 8, no one cares.😂😂😂
@@ciaranbrk, 🥱🥱🥱🥱
Ireland were getting way ahead of themselves thinking they were going to win the whole thing and gave complete disregard to other capable sides particularly NZ. They had the quarter final won before they had even played it. A lot of the Irish commentary and supporter comments were totally dismissive of other strong sides so they received a rude awakening when beaten, once again, in a quarter final that many of us true rugby pundits predicted. As for the eventual winner South Africa, they were lucky to have won when incapable of scoring any trys. No real highlights to look at and never should have been allowed to beat England. Personally having watched every world cup since the first, this was the absolute worst one for officiating and kinda looked pre-scripted.
We told the irish if we had a kicker we wouldve easily beat irelsnd but they chose to b3 arrogant 😅😅😅😅
Ireland celebrated beating SA like they had won the world cup. In hindsight the players need to own this and say this was a massive mistake. They did not control the emotion, you cant blame the fans thats what they do, the players shouldnt have celebrated with them, I think this cost them the world cup. If they had beat NZ, I firmly believe Ireland would have won the world cup.
For feck sake lads you lost. At least say you lost when you wanted to win. Jesus say you should have won. Say you were beaten when you should have won. Be men. Earn respect. Go back and try again. Don't accept
