Adrian Jacobs didn’t play enough tests for South Africa. He was a brilliant attacking player with and eye for the gap and explosive pace. He had to play second fiddle to Jaque Fourie, but when he wore the Springbok jersey, he wore it with pride. Enjoy and thanks for watching!
The Rugby World Cup starts this week and we cannot wait! This is the last video in our series of Springbok tries at the Rugby World Cup. this week we take a look back at 2015. Not a great tournament for the Springboks (don’t mention Japan…), but some good tries we scored. Enjoy and thanks […]
Our third video in our series of Springbok tries at each Rugby World Cup. This week we look back to 2003… Not a good tournament for South Africa, but some good tries were scored against the tier 2 teams… Enjoy and thanks for watching!
I think Adrian Garvey was quite underrated as a Springbok. He was a different type of tighthead – one that could scrum, but also one that was mobile in loose play and could run like a loose forward. He originally played for his native Zimbabwe and represented them at the 1991 Rugby World Cup, before […]
The Springboks vs England is a fixture that always produces either action or controversy. The South Africans tend to not like the English too much, so this match is always full of fire. For a long time the Springboks had the English’ number, but in the 90’s it was more even between the two sides. […]
Andre Venter was a machine. He was the fittest player in the Springbok teams he played in and he never gave anything less than 100% on the field. He was a big man, with great speed and was also a very good line out option. He is one of the greatest Springbok flanks of all […]
This is an update of our previous tribute to Danie Gerber titled “Maestro Of The Midfield”. It has all the original tries, plus a couple more we found over the last year. The greatest Springbok ever. Sit back and enjoy. Thanks for watching!
Watching footage of Wahl Bartmann again made me realize how tough he was. This guy didn’t shrug away from any physicality, was very quick around the field and was massive on defense. He was a very good ball carrier too and explosive on the run when given a little space. Wahl famously joined Natal from […]
With the Springboks slowly climbing their way back up the world rankings, we look back to the greatest tries the Springboks have scored against the All Blacks over the last 25 years. The tries are chronological order and we have limited our selection to tries from 1992 only. Enjoy and thanks for watching!
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!
Danie Rossouw doesn’t get the credit he deserves. He was one of the best Springbok forwards ever and one of the most versatile players to ever play for the Boks. He is also the most decorated player in South African rugby history, having won the Currie Cup, Super 14, Tri-Nations, the 2007 Rugby World Cup, […]
In 1991 South Africa united all it’s different rugby boards and unions into one governing body, The South African Rugby Board. We were still in isolation, but an “international” friendly was scheduled between the Springboks and the Junior Springboks, technically matching the 30 best players in South Africa against each other. It was quite and […]
