Ma’a Nonu – Midfield Beast

Ma’a Nonu was a destructive midfielder. He was quite short and stocky, but had power and pace to burn. He was quick off the mark for a big man and could easily cut through opposition defenses. After his breakthrough year in 2003, he struggled to cement himself as a regular All Black. He worked on […]

Matt Burke – The Complete Package

I just loved watching this guy play. Matt Burke was the complete package. He could join the line from fullback, was a good tactical kicker and was renowned for his accuracy when kicking for goal. He was instrumental in the Wallabies’ success between 1998 and 2003 and will go down in history as arguably the […]

Matt Giteau – The Little Magician

Matt Giteau was a mercurial rugby player. He was versatile and could play 9, 10 and 13, but it was probably at inside centre that he made his greatest impact. He was highly skillful, could cut opposition defenses to pieces and could read the game well. Here are some of his greatest tries. Enjoy and […]

Morne Steyn – Mr. Consistency

Morne Steyn divides opinion among rugby fans, but one thing cannot be argued – he was as consistent as gravity. It was interesting making this video, because you can actually see how his style of play evolved over the years and although he was always a good kicker, he only really became famous for his […]

My All Time Greatest Springbok XV

This week I pick my all time greatest Springbok team. It was quite difficult to do this video as it is almost impossible to compare players from the amateur era with players from the modern era. This video should actually be called my favourite Springbok team of all time! Thanks to Mark of Legend for […]

Naas Botha – A Match Winning Genius

What can you say about a player like Naas Botha? He simply was the greatest match winner South Africa has ever produced. He had an uncanny ability to dictate a match. Dr. Danie Craven described him as a genius and a general. My dad told me the story of how 3000 people went to the […]

Naka Drotske – Free State Legend

Naka Drotske was a tough as nails hard grafter who doesn’t get the recognition he deserves. He was a solid hooker who was accurate in the line out and did all the hard work up front. He jokingly told us that we probably won’t make a video of him, because he never scored tries. Well […]

Nick Cummins – The Honey Badger

Nick Cummins is an absolute legend! Affectionately known as the Honey Badger, Nick played 15 tests for Australia and scored 6 tries before moving to Japan to support his family. Not only is he a humble bloke, but he is a bloody good rugby player. In his own words, he’s as tough as woodpecker lips. […]

Niel Burger – The Power of Province

Niel Burger was one of the unluckiest players never to pull on the Springbok jersey. He was a devastating runner who finished like few could and scored some amazing tries for Western Province throughout the 1980’s. Ray Mordt, injuries and erratic form kept him out of the national picture, but when he was hot, he […]

Northern Transvaal Rugby – Currie Cup Finals 1987 to 1991

During the 1980’s international rugby was a real commodity for South African rugby supporters. The Currie Cup served as the pinnacle of rugby in South Africa and the biggest rivalry was without doubt between Northern Transvaal and Western Province. Province dominated the Currie Cup in the early 1980’s, but the momentum shifted in 1987 when […]

Ollie Le Roux – Skilfull Monster

Ollie Le Rous was a multi talented sportsman. He reached the highest honours on the rugby field and he also won national colours in water polo. In the late 90’s he was mainly used as a “super sub” in the Springbok setup, but always made an impact when he came onto the field. Enjoy and […]

Os Du Randt – The Mobile Mountain

It’s a bold statement, I know, but in my humble opinion Pieter “Os” Du Randt was the greatest prop to ever play the game. He did struggle with injury mid way through his career and he was away from the game for two years before returning in 2003 and reclaiming his spot in the Springbok […]

What a shame Patrick Lambie was forced to retire at the young age of 28. His continuous struggles with head injuries is testament to his toughness and his willingness to put his body on the line. Patrick played 56 tests for the Boks after making his debut as a 20 year old in 2010. He […]

Percy Montgomery – The Full Monty

Percy Montgomery is one of those players who divides opinion. When he was good, he was brilliant and when he had an off day, people demanded his head. Love him or hate him, the fact remains he is the greatest point scorer in Springbok history and no full back has scored more tries for the […]

Pierre Spies – The Ultimate Athlete

Pierre Spies divides opinion. The general feeling is that at his best, he was bloody brilliant, but he never consistently lived up to expectations. With all that said, he is what modern rugby players needs to be; big, strong and fast. Love him or hate hims, the fact is he played some brilliant rugby, scored […]

Pieter Hendriks – The Quickest Lion

Hendriks was a big, powerful, no nonsense winger who preferred utilizing the Maori side-step to dancing his way through opposing backlines. The long-time servant of Transvaal rugby may have only scored two tries in the Green and Gold, but his first is widely considered as one of the greatest and most significant in Springbok history. […]
