This video just shows that big guys like Brodie are actually gentle giants and comes across very humble with huge respect for his opponents, that's the respect between the Springboks and the All Black's right there, great interviewer is Big Jim, my favorite currently!!!

They edited out the part where Brodie kicked a stray cat so the gentle part is questionable.

Down to earth and a lovely bloke... Respect from RSA.

Brodie, absolute gent! 🇿🇦❤️🇳🇿

Brodi is a great player. As a South African, I love the respect the 2 teams have for each other. I have never heard or seen players of this two teams speak evil of each other. This is always the best games to watch. All Blacks has never disappointed with their great skills and ball handling. They were the best of the best for many recent years. Springboks had to play catch-up. Now the 2 teams are so even, it is impossible to chose a winner until the game is over. Respect is the key word here !!!!!!

as a springbok fan, when they release a team sheet ahead of a SA-NZ game & if ever retallick's name was not on it, i would immediately have a great sense of relief

Class and humility! A monster, feared and respected player on the pitch. Brodie, stop stealing all our ball man. 😁

Rivalry that has gone on for over a century. Much respect to the Bokke from New Zealand 🇳🇿 I still say that Henry Honiball is my favorite Bokke player, That 98 team was awesome 👌

He was part of one the greatest AB teams in history, the 2011-2015 side. One of last ones of the McCaw era.

Glad to be part of your channel. I'm a South African, born and bread. I love the respect that apposing players give each other, that's sportsmanship. Brody Retalic, I've been a fearfully fan of yours for all the Yeats you've been playing. I say fearful because you've been a thorn in the Springbok side all the time. Can I just say, you're an amazing play, and well done. Brilliance

Much respect to Brodie. Class act, humble and a good man! One of my favourite All Blacks and certainly one of the greatest AB locks of all time 💪

True sportsman and respected by rugby fans. Great chat

Big Brodie - work horse of the black jersey

Much respect, Brodie. Very underrated All Black! We've had some great clashes with you guys over the years.

And I get lots of joy watching Ireland do well - you guys deserve it for the years of passionate rugby you played - I used to love watching Keith Wood and co, let alone BOD / ROG era. South Africa is dangerous, yes, but getting robbed or murdered isn't the only danger in this world. For some people the biggest danger is never leaving their comfort zone & spending their life on the couch cos it's easier. I've seen many people from 1st world places lose their zest for life because of small-town thinking, so keep your wits bud.

You were a great custodian of the Black Jersey. Thank you Brodie for all the hard yards....

True legend. Enforced in his own way. Has a lot of respect for Saffa (like all Kiwis). Will be interesting without him and Whitelock vs England - should be a great match 🙏

Brodie the best 🔒 I have seen. Size and skill set. Sad that he was injured coming into the last two world cups

I really respect the all blacks

Love your shows!

ABs and Boks are an intense rivalry, always have been. Tony Brown will make a difference to them that's for sure. Go Brodie, such a warrior !!

Jodie is to the AB like Bakkies was for the boks. Great player

He was such a monster in the final and stole so many line outs; for me would have been MOTM had they won

I can see Jim mixing it up in a VIP room at Loftus after the Ireland test this weekend, next thing Bakkies appears from behind with a grin on his face, putting a hand on Jim’s shoulder: “I hearrrd you set I’m uckly.”

BIG BAD BRODIE we call him bro, tumeke lock!

Jim is such an Eben fanboy haha

Truthfully think that if Jim is interviewing Retallick, then he should interview Retallick. Not host a discussion group on Etzebeth.

A great player I am a Springboks fan but Brodie is my first pick could do everything and great in defense

It's funny, when I watch Brodie playing against the Springboks he always looks so tough, so hardcore. And I often have to say to myself, this is an okey who thinks, feels and can talk but oddly enough this is the first time I have seen and heard him talking. On the pitch, I never see him speaking. He seems like Frans Malherbe in that regard. Quietly does his job to the best of his ability. Just a quickie Brodie, if you eat the kind of meat we have here in SA, you too can grow arms as big as Eben. Lastly, there are 18 year olds in South Africa who are bigger than Eben Etzebeth.
