Wonderful to watch! I'm a Springbok supporter, but at the end of the day, rugby must be the winner....

Me too. They're all brilliant. Fascinating.

Replace the word player with the word people and it still rings true. As others have said, this is the man to lead you into battle. So inspirational.

Who else is here in the year the lions embark on the 2021 lions tour??? I was just shy of my 15th Birthday when this great man made this and the great 10 man addressing on the eve of the first test,still sends shivers down my spine and makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up!!!🏉🇬🇧🇮🇪🦁

This gave me the will to fight my mental health problems lately 😢

There's battles all along the way... Never truer words were spoken.

Proud South African! goosies form head to toe. best ever motivation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One of the greatest speeches ever. Short but powerful. I would follow this man to certain death 😂 On a serious note this speech is not just for rugby players, or athletes but for people in general. Honesty and hard graft are such important qualities in life. Something which the older generation probably had more than today's generation. Top man Jim Telfer 👏

Can the current Scottish Football team employ this man, I will tell you why they don't want him, He would tell what he thinks of them.

The gloves are off, it's bear Knuckle fucking stuff.... gotta love that!

The pause, so effective

Rugby's Sir Alex Ferguson. Hungry, driven, steely eyed, straight talking and no nonsense.

So happy this speech is back on youtube. Love it. Thank you 🙂

Love the Lions tradition, Can't wait for next year, Go SA 🤘

Wise words. Work hard at your own job and if things don’t go well don’t go pointing fingers at things out of your control.

Can't wait for the series to begin!

Too feckin right

They should probaby play this before and after all tier one rugby games because it is becoming a regular event that players and so called fans are complaining about something that did not go their way.

What an inspirational man you'd go through fire and brimstone for him

Makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up!! Just the best game in the world. End of.

If you are a Scotsman turn on the captions and have a laugh!!! they can't even figure oot what he is saying

The greatest speech ever.

Legend

@0:14 Sounds like the rucking mirror lol. Joking aside, Jim Telfer, superb coach.

BRB, just gotta run through a wall

As in rugby as in life

This man was both woke and old school. Now that is a brilliant achievement. Great honest speech. Maybe Katherine Granger should hear this. It ain't about holding hands.
