Anyone I missed out that you would have picked? Thanks to the team at CBX for sponsoring this week’s video! Website: https://www.cbx.co.za/ Facebook: […]

Chris Latham – Attacking Genius

Chris Latham was a lethal runner and overall brilliant on attack. He could cut defenses to pieces and liked running straight and hard. He was very good under the high ball and had a good left boot to take pressure off his team. He was one of the most complete fullbacks to ever play the […]

10 Great Tries by the Stormers in Super Rugby

The Stormers have historically been known for playing attacking rugby. Although in recent years, they have opted for more of a power game, they have still scored some brilliant tries. Here are 10 of the best. Enjoy and thanks for watching!

Joe Rokocoko – The Rocket Man

Joe Rokocoko was an awesome rugby player. I thought his All Black career would last longer than it did, but boy, what an impact he made in international rugby. He scored a staggering 46 test tries in 68 tests for the All Blacks and plenty more for the the Blues in Super Rugby before moving […]

Syd Nomis – A Tribute For A Legend

Ou Siddie. It’s a funny thing about the Jewish players who have played for South Africa. With the exception of Geffin and Smollan they were all backs and most of them had flair, the flair our own coloured compatriots have, the flair the French have shown so frequently on the field. Syd could play as […]

Hennie Le Roux – The General

Hennie Le Roux was an exceptionally talented rugby player. He was big in stature, but was tough as nails. When Naas Botha retired at the end of 1992, Hennie was the man earmarked to succeed the Springbok legend. He did so in 1993 and 1994, but was mostly selected at inside center in 1995 and […]

Jaco Van Der Westhuyzen – Erratic Brilliance

I’m calling this tribute to Jaco van der Westhuyzen “Erratic Brilliance”, because he was a very talented player who was absolutely brilliant on attack when he was on form, but also struggled a bit when he lacked confidence. All in all, he had a very successful career playing for the Sharks, Pumas, Bulls and the […]

Robbie Fleck – The Hot Stepper

Look, you have to give Robbie Fleck some credit – he could side step. He wasn’t the greatest Springbok ever and had a relatively short international career, but he had pace to burn and did score some great tries. Here is a collection of his best. Enjoy and thanks for watching!

Joel Stransky – A Classic Fly Half

Joel Stransky was very underrated as a player. I don’t think the South African public realizes what a well balances, all round player he was. He was a classic fly half who had a very good right foot that could get his side out of trouble when under pressure. He was a more than competent […]

Serge Blanco – French Flair

Serge Blanco was one of the greatest rugby players ever. He always seemed to be in the right place and the ball always bounced right for him, but that was his genius. A master of the chip and chase, solid on defense and with an all round good kicking game. He was the complete rugby […]

Frikkie Welsh – The Hard Hitting Bull

Frikkie Welsh was, in our opinion, very underrated as a player. We was built very solid and had great speed. He was a hard runner who often broke the line. He could play on the wing and in the center and scored some great tries for the Bulls during his great career. Enjoy and thanks […]

Gerbrand Grobler – Counter Attacking Brilliance

Gerbrand Grobler was a childhood hero of mine. He was, at times, erratic, but when he was on form he was sublime and was one of the best counter attacking fullbacks in South Africa. He could have played for South Africa and was unlucky to never get a chance. Unfortunately, Gerbrand tragically died in a […]

Japie Mulder – Solid As A Rock

Japie Mulder was called up to the Springbok squad as a replacement on the tour of New Zealand in 1994 and impressed so much in the mid week games that he was quickly included in the test team. His peak was in 1995 and 1996, but he played his last test for the Boks in […]

Ruben Kruger – Silent Assassin

Ruben Kruger was arguably the greatest flank to ever play for South Africa. He wasn’t always in the headlines and some other players may have featured more than he did, but the fact remains that he was one of the hardest and most consistent rugby players in the history of South African rugby. He was […]

Justin Swart – The Speed Merchant

Justin Swart hit the domestic scene like a tornado in 1995 and immediately made an impact at Western Province. He was selected for the Springboks in 1996, but only ever played a handful of tests between 1996 and 1997. When he was at his peak, he was dynamite. He had exceptional speed and could finish […]

Chris Badenhorst – The Freestate Flyer

Chris Badenhorst was brilliant, just brilliant. It’s an injustice that he only ever played two tests for the Springboks as he was a sublime finisher with electric pace. He held the South African first class try scoring record for many many years and he is still the greatest try scorer in Freestate rugby history. A […]

Jeff Wilson – The Golden Boy

South Africans, for some reason, always went on about how Jonah Lomu never scored against the Boks. But no one ever admits how many tries Christian Cullen and Jeff Wilson scored against us! I find it odd that Jeff Wilson isn’t always seen as one of the best All Black wings ever. He is probably […]

Fourie Du Preez – Master Tactician

A lot of people would regard Fourie Du Preez as the greatest scrumhalf to ever play for South Africa, and that argument has its merit. He was a genius who was able to read the game better than anyone and what set him apart was his ability to make the right decisions at crucial times. […]

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 […]
