from a fresh face young guy to a scarred veteran.
from Mbombela to Paris.
from the highs of playing for the Cheetahs to a possibly even bigger achievement winning a World cup.

Deon Fourie got a video call from his family from hospital after the Tonga game , to tell him his dad have a 50/50 chance to live.
the Bok Dr, Jerome Mampane, went to the room to sit next to Deon and talk to the doctor too so he could further explain to Deon & support him ♥️

Ras became head coach today 6 year’s ago.
can not think of a appointment in sport or even business that had the same impact . genius at every level that saved SARU and saved the Bok brand.
aligned a team with a blueprint ,and aligned a country with a team.
thanks coach 🙏🏻

thinking again this morning about this guy and the ICE flowing in his veins
5 crucial line outs in 7 minutes and he pinpoint. every. single one. It was like 5 consecutive putts to win the masters golf. unbelievable pressure each time.
this victory don’t happen without him

in the world cup match when Duane was not chosen in the 23 to play against Ireland , Vic Matfield send him a message to ask if he was ok about it , or if his fitness is ok, or whatever.
Duane send 4 only words back.

game within the game.. line out at 24 min
Barrett pretend to complain about Bok distance ,but he is using that as a disguise, because he is going to be a lifter...
but Boks has own trick up sleeve. they have put PSdT at the front and Eben in the middle..🤓

so many people around the world trying to crap on the win like it was easy ,or lucky, or not deserved 🥲
it was not easy . or lucky. and after all that planning & sacrifice and walking THAT path, it was 1000% deserved.
happy these players getting appreciation here at home 🙂❤️

that last line out...
just watch it a few times , but look at where every Bok is looking. and how he is reacting ⚙️
- Ruan controlling the back
- Elrigh eyes only for Barrett
- Eben & PSdT reading and staying alive
so much cat and mouse 🐈⬛🐁

World rugby dropping the Curry story. could not find evidence in the Semi or in the match England refer to from last year.
but quite a thing to see that English media machine in action 👀 Bongi getting taste of the Prince Harry treatment 🏴

here is a story James tell me just after he had the suicide attempt in 2001.
he went to stay at his mothers home to get away from the media and the glaring. nobody could get hold of him and most people did not even know where he was. then the phone ring and his mother answer it

some random things as we re-watch.
Steward one of best in the air ,and made for a game like this .
but England escort also excellent to protect him. all the little things that make them winners in the aerial battle

if you de-value scrums ,teams doesn't really need to stress about picking proper props anymore.
so now not only is the slightly shorter & rounder guy at school not needed in his rugby team,
but we lose mis-matches on the field
just 15 flanks running at 15 flanks
🥱 no thanks!

really don’t understand this narrative hey 😩
many people looking past the skill and innovation that bring Boks here.
but also ,rugby is many contests roll into one ,that is why we love it.
you have to pitch up across the board if you want to win.
THAT is what rugby is ❤️

sorry for all the emotion 🥲 just very happy for a group of guy's who been confined to a bubble for so long - since before Georgia test months ago. to dig so deep at the end of it all ,and after all the critism, amaze me and I am very proud and happy for them 💚🏉🇿🇦

Boks up & down, scrambling, at times doing amazing things ,at times hanging by a thread.
at home our nerves is shattered ,crazy rollercoaster, which way to turn?
and then Boks call a scrum from a mark.
a moment of total clarity and self belief .
and so ,we also believed 🙏🏻

LeBok is the missing ingredient this Springbok machine been searching for 💪🏻 a distributing 10 who is also a running threat , who take the right depth at right moments and can put tempo on our attack when the cracks appear

Ireland wow..👀 tactics ,muscle and pure guts.
Frawley surely man of match ? was a rock at the back and the guy who deliver the killing blow.
guys came over here after a long season ,lose first test, then pick themself up to give us a big klap in our own back yard 😆
well done

Scotland mid-field ruck. they will play to the right through Russell.

to go out in QF is bad for anyone ,but next weekend will feel extra bad..

- goodbye to Worlds

not sure i agree Kolbe is the “complete rugby player”. yes he have played 9, 10 , 11, 14, 15 and 8 one time . and yes he is good in attack, tackle big guy’s ,good in the air and kick 50m drops and so , but until he can get a big right shoulder playing at 3 please let us calm down

taller than Duane Vermeulen ,fast as Brian Habana,the feet of Willie le Roux…. quite a prospect the ex Grey Kollege boy 💪🏻

wow! one of biggest upsets in SA school boy rugby history 😮

rest in peace James . Hell of a wing and hell of a personality. first “rock star“ player in a time when those in control did not like that . some troubled times ,but not many guys had so much passion for the jersey as you did. what will you and jonah and joost talk about tonight?

well done to Matt Proudfoot who we can now call "Mr 97%".
that was the sucess rate of the Springbok set piece.
68/69 lineouts, 45/47 scrums . beside all other work that go into the forwards , this was foundation the team could operate from.

playing France at home in a QF 👀
