One thing I have learnt from Rassie is that all of us as South African, black, white colored you name it, we've got a lot of unlearning to do. We need to be honest enough to identify that some of the things we were thought growing up by our different communities are not so true. We need to be bold enough to look past the stereotypes or the perceptions we have about other races and see things for simply what they are. At the end of the day if I jugde people of a certain race based on what I've been told, I don't even think I deserve to be called a man because a real man makes his own decisions independently not based on what the majority or the group is saying. That is exactly what Rassie did, he choose to give the players of color an opportunity to prove themselves so that he can base his judgment of them on facts. That's all we ask for, nothing much.

Rassie is an extremely special human being . He is a National treasure

The gwijo on the background alone sums up everything for me. I was playing for Winter Rose under 15 when Makazole first joined Winter Rose club, it was in 2009. The man was a beast in the weight room and on the field, as a result he only played few games for under 21 that year and went straight into the first team. Everyone was raving about him and he was only 19 years old at the time. He is the most humble guy I have ever met. Seeing him on that trophy bus tour in Cape Town just brought tears in my eyes because I have seen the grind and his humble beginnings. I am sure ooMr. Koshe notata uNompilo are happy with the man you've become mntaks. You'll go down as one of the greats in my history books. I don't even wanna talk about Rassie, South Africa needed Rassie more than we need a President. He knows South Africa to the core, and no other coach would have done what he has done for South Africa. We appreciate and love everything about you Rassie.

So emotional the guy with the big heart thank you mapimpi for making the whole country proud 🙏

Rassie is the man. I respect him so much. South africa loves and salute you man

I'm Irish.... We didn't do so well in the world cup as you may know. Watching the bocks do so well during this world cup, and beating the best looking team of the tournament in extraordinary fashion was amazing to watch! Thank you! And to those heartless people who disliked the video I'm just lost for words.

Rassie was in Ireland just under 3 years before he decided to take the job as coach of the Springboks. He was set to settle down with Munster and make his living there. It must take incredible courage to make the decision to leave what was going well for him and his family and take over what was possibly the most inconsistent SA team in modern rugby.

@@rugbyshorts and as South Africans we can definitely give credit to the systems there for helping our players and coaches get better, never minding the passionate fan base over there that gives the game so much. Many of our players and coaches have returned so much better after doing time in Ireland and other parts of the UK. Can't wait for Lions 2021!

We need more man like this … Caring / loving not scared to show their emotions… this world will be a better place…

Man that got a tear out of me,erasmus shows true emotion😢

When you think of how physically tough this man is, and then you see him reduced to tears it just shows that inside us all is a spirit that wants to connect to and be with other beings in a very deep way. Tremendous respect for what Rassie and all his team have achieved together. It is one of the great stories to come from South Africa, amongst all of the very real problems that beautiful country has.

I don't think I've read a more genuine and resonant comment on YT before. Striking for it's simplicity, beautiful for it's sentiment. Pure class, from someone I can only assume is not South African.

As an Englishman, this is beautiful. This is more than a game.

The GREATEST RUGBY NATION in the world. Rassie is a beautiful soul. Mampimpi God bless you. R.I.P Kaunda

RIP Kaunda Ntunja. Zizi 🥰🥰

Rassie brings the springboks back on the top of the world 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦

French fan here.... often, when I see a game with the springboks...I ask myself: why are they so strong, so hard to hurt? It's evident . Their life... nobody is able to break you, with this kind of life. 😢

Life in South Africa is very hard, and even harder on most of my people. You develop tough skin and an unbreakable forehead living here. You have no other choice but to.

Each time i watch Rassie crying i m drenched in tears, i have downloaded this, thanks Mr Erasmus yu are great. God bless yu sir.

I'm a Scotsman and I'd never heard about this until now. I cried too. Makazole has a giant strength within him. God bless.

I too was born in New Zealand, but have always preferred Springbok Rugby . It is raw and primal unaffected and simple. And it’s only got better.

I think in some ways the rawness of our rugby comes from the rawness of SA as a place. when people fight for something here, they put everything on the line. for better / and for worse. That said, NZ's great history of different cultures blending is a fascinating story and makes for beautiful watching on the field - im so we're staying in the rugby championship!

From a all black fan wow this is heart broken I'm now so clad use won the world cup. Much Respect to the coach and Makazole Mapimpi I'm a fan now sir.

"Into ezihlwahlwazayo madoda" 😢 this man changed commentary. May his soul rest in peace.

We still miss you in munster Rassie but are delighted for your success

Wow I have a new respect for Rassie after this video man. I'm crying like a baby. God bless Mapimpi and God bless Rassie and all South Africans...

Yoh! I’m not even a huge rugby fan and it also made me cry.

Rassie, a white man I, in my mind is the greatest story of transformation is SA sport, I think he believes in it more than even most black people. I was one of those people who had lost hope, given the amount of excuses we have been fed through the years. The man is special ✊🙏

The great Rasie Erasmus... My hero... National Hero...

this bra grew up in the EC, where I did. What a champ! Everybody hurts, everybody.. some more then others..

Respect to yous all my South African brothers from NZ💯

When South Africans are 'underdogs' or have their backs against the wall in any situation, they produce truly remarkable things 👏🏼🤙🏼🤙🏽🤙🏾🤙🏿🇿🇦

Honestly I don’t watch rugby to much but he should know if he ever is in the southern part of Sweden he can come eat at my table cause he is still family to me whether or not I’m South African or not

I've seen this clip twice a year, every year since it came out. I still smile through tears at the extraordinary love, respect and empathy Rassie has for his players. It is a beautifull thing to see and I get too be here to witness it

And this is what makes a great coach. One that can mold world cup winning teams. Respect to you Rassie. A whole nation looking up to you.

Earlier in the documentary I was like, what a rough coach...at the end of the documentary I was like wow. This is the best coach in the world. Play the game...win it then inspire 👏👏

Mapimpi is loved bro if he was here I would shake his hand and give him a hug his a absolute legend

This story man, im just in tears now all over again. God bless all of my countrymen, oh South Africa our land.
