Rugby 🏉 bring south Africans together always. Thank u for the 4th win champions of the world. We salute u together we conquered. 🇿🇦🇿🇦💚

The formation you asked about at around the 4:45 mark is known as a scrum. This is performed by the forward pack who are always quite a bit heavier than the backline. The forward pack or simply forwards, are in the South African context human wrecking balls who now in the modern game are also fast. It is not uncommon for pack weights to tickle the one tonne mark typically coming in at around 870 to 990kg's in top flight rugby. There are 8 per team arranged in a 3/4/1 formation. The scrum is part of structured play known as setpieces. What you see around the 7:55 mark is known as a ruck(ball on the ground) or maul(ball not on the ground, ie ball is held by a player and another or others are contesting possession) and this is part of unstructured play. Traditionally left to forwards because of their sheer physicality, it is in the modern game, more or less a free for all for both forwards and backs(backline) to gain possession or try and gain possession of the ball so as to gain advantage and score. I may stand to be corrected on some of the more technical point of these, but that's more or less the nutshell....

To answer your question @4:50, that is called a (set)scrum, ref calls for it for light offences mostly committed by the team in possession of the ball. The scrum is contested by the forward players of the two teams(positions #1 to #8). The forwards are usually the bigggest players as their jobs requires more mustle than does the backline.

That thing where they huddle and band together, that's called a scrum. What do they feed the Springboks? Pap, vleis (meat) and chakalaka. Who is the little dude in the scrum cap? Probably Cheslin Kolbe. Other little dude is Faf de Klerk. Loved your reaction!❤ Had me laughing so hard every so often. Proudly South African.

Best thing for me is that even as a fairly divided country, when someone picks on a Bok player- he is backed up by the whole team. That’s what SA needs

Our Springboks have also had some rough years which have made the wins so much better. You will often see in Club/League rugby where International players will target each other so that when the time comes to pick the Springbok Squad for the season, half of our best players get "taken out" in league, like the "Super 15" where clubs from Australia, New Zealand and South Africa all play for the League Title.. Kind of like in the NHL clubs where you have players from Russia, France, USA and Canada playing together and then playing for their country against each other when the Olympics comes round. So if a top springbok is playing for an SA club, against a NZ club, the NZ club players will target that one top player so he cant play internationals, its hardcore! So basically.. That shitty tacktick MADE the Springboks tough AF and hardened them ALL!

The team are fed on Braai's and Sadza. And Pap en Vleis. They are also always given the psychological advantage of playing rugby as if they are fighting a war to protect their fellow countrymen. Whenever they play, they always play super physical. Our number 1 opponent the All Blacks from New Zealand have said it was always the heaviest game to play when playing the Springboks because of how physical and attritional our boys make it. Because our Boks don't just tackle, they tackle with their everything as if their very lives depended on it. Which is why they make it hurt. And because the Boks make it hurt, they don't get hurt easily either so it's fantastic. 4:57 That's called a scrum. Basically the forwards numbered one to eight on their shirts are part of the forward pack and they are involved in the scrums and lineouts officially. Lineouts being, ball goes out and an opposition hooker (#2 on his back) throws the ball in to two lines of forwards one line from each team. This enables opposition to contest the lineouts but it also tests the strength and tactics of the forwards packs against each other. Early on in the game, the forwards packs were only used as battering rams in scrums and catchers in lineouts. They never trained to run, that was the job of the backs (#11-15) and then scrumhalf (#9) would connect between the two getting the ball from the forwards and throwing it to the backs. The Flyhalf (#10) is the standard kicker. However, as the game got more professional the forwards would start running as well, the kicker isn't necessarily #10 although he usually is, and basically if a player has the ball he must run it. Lastly, the idea of the guys dotting the ball down over the goal line initially was a variation of soccer or football where you didn't get any points there, that was the place where the Flyhalf would then attempt to kick the ball through the posts over the crossbar. And naturally the further out wide it was the further back the kicker had to stand. However, since the game got more professional the try as it is called, players dotting the ball down over the line, became a way to score as well and since it wasn't easy they gave it a bigger point incentive than the kicks over the posts. So 5 points for a try, 2 points for conversion, kicking the ball through the posts following a try and 3 points each for either a penalty kick or a drop goal. So it's also an amazing simply for how many different ways there are to score.

These guys make me proud to be a South African 🙌❤️🔥🔥💪

True, that’s one way to look at it. The All Blacks have won more, but here’s another way to look at it… both countries are sitting on 3 World Cup wins, so SA won when it mattered most. If you look at NZ records out of the World Cup, you’d expect them to have 5 maybe 6 trophies. As a South African, I can honestly say that when the AB team is working well, they score tries almost at will… but that’s just as true of SA. I really want to see a WC final where both teams are at their peak. It’d be quite the spectacle.

S.A have been the better team of late but the ABs seem to evolve the game with young talent ,although at their own demise sometimes @@pieterrossouw8596

Just remember south africa didn't play many games during apartheid. Other countries didn't want to play against them because of sanctions. So yes the all blacks have the numbers but the springboks didn't play as much. And during that time rugby wasn't seen as a profession in South Africa. It was like a club, players would have normal day jobs and play on the weekend.

"The Springboks play boring, one dimensional rugby" yeah right. That's why they are three times rugby world champions.

We won the world cup 3 times im proud of my boys we love them all

My theory is that it starts with high school. The boys are rough and play with guys from the farms (they are big boys). They mellow down but become aware of their surroundings due to the crime in the country and can run if need be (away or to help). There is a lot of pride in their country and team so there's pressure to perform. They are gentle giants but don't mess with them, or the country's women. My nephew is the VC of his first team in an all-boys school. His skinny butt looks confused in the team pictures. Lol, he will learn. If I remember correctly during the 1995 world cup Jonah Lomu (New Zealand) gave some issues cause he was massive and hard to stop. The S.A. team managed to get him down by 3 of them holding onto him. If there is a will, there is a way and South Africans are really good at finding a solution to a messed-up situation while laughing. P.S. That dome they were doing is called a scrum.

Springbok is the best .it will never ever let you down. They are really magnificent

It’s called a scrum. Proud South African here. Springboks for life!!!

Im from south africaand to answer your questions were just built different

In terms of your question regarding what we eat, it’s good old South African meat - beef, chicken, pork, lamb and our vegetables my friend. We also drink anyone under the table and will take you for a morning run with a breakfast martini in your belly before you have a strong breakfast to head off to work to go conquer your day. We’re also South Africans - we are Africans. We are bred to be fighters and warriors. From birth, we enter this world to dominate everything outside of the SA tribe. Rugby isn’t for babies and it’s our No. 1 sport man. It doesn’t get more real than this.

4:55 - It's called a scrum whereby both apposing teams basically try out-muscle the other team to contest for the ball. Usually a scrum down is called after a player has knocked the ball forward from open play or a penalty (You get 4 options, tap and play, scrum, kick for the line or kick for posts)

And we have a very humble loving captain. Love you Siya Kolisi

Rugby players get paid well, but nowhere near NFL salaries. Love your reactions. The US has an excellent rugby comp going, it just needs more exposure within the US and more money. Their are some very very good young players in the US coming through at the moment, The US is going to be a rugby force in the next few years. I'm a Kiwi rugby fan, There's a world cup this year, and South Africa are definitely front runners. They are formidable, dangerous and explosive on the field and will dismantle any team, including the AB's.

I think the Springboks and AB games are always a nervous situation for both teams fans. I think there are many teams this year (2023) who are up there with these 2, Ireland, France and Australia. England is battling internal politics so close to a world cup might hurt them. In no way are the other teams of lessor quality. A lot of depth in the World 1st tier teams this year. Looking forward to the RWC in France. ( Try to be unbia, disclaimer, I am a Boks fan though.)

I wouldn't say that the US will be a formidable team in a few years. I'd say they will be a competent team that will consistently qualify for the world cup. They will be a solid tier 2 team like Italy and Japan but I don't see them becoming super competitive with the tier 1 teams for at least another 10-20 years. Unless rugby suddenly becomes the biggest sport in the country

@@onejayp rugby like most sports outside the USA has strict salary caps. So salary wise a pro rugby player is looking at 600k per year usd with top players getting upto 3 to 5 million per year usd. Rugby careers are typically long compared to nfl careers. Due in large part to how thr rugby community works (respecting your opponents off the field) after their pro career they tend to get jobs in high level positions in businesses, as the skill on the field to "manage a war " is transferable into life skills. Nfl is a coaches game, where players don't make on the field decisions about strategy. Due to the fluid nature of rugby the players need to adapt as the game progresses.

When 2 teams do a formation to re start the game it's called a SCRUM, the team that was infringed against , gets to the start the game by putting the ball into the scrum- then it becomes a test of pure power each team of 8 players try force the opposing team back & away from the ball.

This is what I a fellow South African want to see

New sub, I'm half South African. The Springboks are NEXT LEVEL!
