The term 'BOMB SQUAD' is a SA original and drives fear into all opposition
@pre-dawnraid9037 18 минут бұрын
Back in 2005 when Rassie started his coaching career, he was the first coach to select 6 props for the Currie Cup final. That showed everyone that he thinks different. Did I mention that he sat on the stadium roof with lights and signs and paddles to send messages to the team on the field?

The collective 23 collects quality caps test in and test out. 23 players gets a quality cap. That is how the springboks build experience much quicker than other teams...
@semiquavertriplitz 31 минут бұрын
No one else has a world class group of forwards to do this but others will try. The Springboks are a juggernaut at the moment and look to be that way for some time. The rest of the rugby world will have to figure out a way to combat the bomb squad

The essence of the bomb squad is that the team is 23 players not 15 plus "reserves". It gives the bench dignity and respect. Some of them might be the best players. It enables the more experienced players to extend their careers as well.

Absolutely bs. Rassie changed rugby for ever! South Africa can make 3 even strong teams with plenty people waiting to enter those teams. A few years ago flower bombs were drop on the field while the Springboks played in New Zealand. New Zealand wanted Alartheid gone. Now Apartheid is gone. This is the result. There is no discrimination in South African rugby and they play for more than just a game, they play for every person in South Africa.

You can't argue with it's success but SA are so unentertaining to watch as a rugby fan. Naturally SA fans love it & i get it, but i genuinely think they drive casual fans away from the sport in droves. Turgid, low risk, boring to watch rugby. I believe rugby should be a game of evasion not collision. This style of rugby could send a glass eye to sleep & i believe this style’s success is rugby’s greatest challenge. P.S: Here in the northern hemisphere we have a similar problem with ireland & leinster. Success yes, entertainment none! Unless you’re a fan of either side of course.

A lot of the commentary about Ireland’s quarter final performances seems to miss the fact that Ireland were a bad team in the 1990s, finishing either last or second last in every 5 nations. There was no reasonable expectation of them getting to a semifinal back then. The first tournament where you could say they had a realistic shot was 2003, but still an average team. The 2015 team was desperately unlucky as injuries and suspensions left them without about 7 starters, and Ireland’s squad depth cannot survive that. The 2023 team played very well and simply lost on the day to the ABs (ie didn’t choke). The teams that could and should have performed better (could be said to have “choked”) are 2007, 2011 and 2019 (should not have lost to Japan in 2019 and left themselves with the ABs in the quarter).
@taintabird23 9 сағат бұрын
This is correct. Ireland lost most games they played in during the 1990s, and lost regularly to Tier 2 nations like Namibia and Italy. I would say that only in 2011 did Ireland choke. In 2007, Ireland were undercooked going into the tournament as they played no warm up games.
@hickeygrad 3 сағат бұрын
@@taintabird23 I certainly agree re: 2011 but I would definitely add 2007 and 2019 to the mix based on the standard of “performed below expectations on the biggest stage”. In 2019 the loss to Japan really set that squad back so they were then terrible in the quarters. It also seemed like they were figured out by other teams, based on how England dismantled pre-tournament, and they couldn’t adapt. In 2007, they did have warm up games (Italy and Scotland, and who could forget the Battle of Bayonne), but a key training issue a lot of players highlighted was O’Sullivan had them in the gym too much and not enough on the pitch. They were all about 5kg heavier than normal, but not as good with the ball and lacking in stamina/fitness. They were really bad in that group stage as a result and performed way below expectations
