Jacques Olivier - The Finishing King of Pretoria
Спорт
Jacques Olivier was a very talented wing with a wicked sidestep who scored some wonderful tries for the Bulls and the Springboks. Unfortunately he struggled with injuries during his career and if that wasn't the case, he surely would have won more caps for Boks. He played a total of 17 tests and was unlucky to miss out on Rugby World Cup 1995 selection.
He won two Currie Cups with the Bulls in 1991 and 1998 and will be remembered as a Blue Bull great.
Enjoy the tries and thanks for watching!

I have had many a coffee and even more beers with Jacques, what a bloody nice guy and gentleman. And, one of the best wingers this country ever had.
Absolute beast of a wing, never over the top celebrations just business
Very humble guy, his pace and style were truly a God-given talent and poetry in motion.
Funny how Naas was/is always considered as a kicking fly half and yet so many of these tries were made by the decision making and passing of Naas!!!

I stopped arguing with people who always claim "Naas didn't pass, he only kicked", because I can't have a decent conversation with someone who obviously knows nothing about rugby. Naas was a fantastic distributor for his backline. Agree with you 100%
Thank you for these videos

That game at 20:43 was here in Australia by the looks of it; judging by the opposition's colours and a ground that looks like an Aussie Rules footy oval, was this against South Australia?

It looks like a South Australia XV, they would have been a totally amateur side.

Hy was "Lectric"!!!
Great player with talent and speed to burn. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't believe that he ever played against the All Blacks.
Was decent at scrum half too
