After all these years, I still believe that Danie Gerber was the best centre who ever played the game of rugby.

The Best!!..

Back when the springboks ran the ball instead of kicking and kicking and

Great watching for my lazy Saturday morning thank you for the efforts

The very best ever!!!

Danie Gerber made wingers look like props.

Gerber to Nas "where's the ball?" Nas to Gerber "ask that blond No 9 Faf de kick!"

Danie Gerber my favourite Springbok. Try scoring machine.Saying is best centre is very subjective. Sella was great centre too. Bruce Robertson was great centre as well. Robertson set up his winger for some great tries. He could kick with both feet,he had beautiful pass on him,great centring kick, He was fastest All black at the time. Gerber,Sella,Robertson all great players.

This was rugby. Not this boring game we see today.

Best ever centre maybe best ever rugby player

Can't they turn off the fucking awful music!! I mean let's hear the legends talk

Never say never the old adage goes, but the world will never see another centre of the calibre of Danie Gerber!!! Pity that the international rugby world were denied the privilege of seeing a great man at work. To this day Danie is still as humble about his achievements as back in the days. Honestly a great personality. I salute you Danie.

dangerous player for anyone to face....in any era

The best centre ever. No question. Brian O'Driscol I think is a distant second and then all the rest of the great centres to play the game.

Philippe Sella is the only centre I've ever seen better than him.

Gerber is a bit off the mark there, that S.A. team of the mid 80s could have been the best in the world never mind just Springboks. SA rugby just hasnt produced a team quite of that caliber since then. Time will tell if 2019 continues.

It can be argued that Danny Gerber is the greatest Centre to ever play the game of rugby union.

Nee hy was op die regte tyd. Danie was net vêr bo die ander. Kom n game op eenige tyd draai ,as hy n bal kry. Hy was en is net so ongelooflik goed op sy tyd.

The greatest. Btw, anyone else hear, “I am going to fuck your mother” at the end...?

The Boks backline of the mid to late 80s were the best combination any world team could have 15 Heunis complete player 14 Mordt strong powerful 13 Gerber classy and destructive 12 M du Plessis clever creative 11 C du Plessis most balanced runner 10 Botha match winner 9Serfontein swift ball to backs and best in box kicks

Danie Gerber, by far the worlds best centre ever. Amazing player!

*apartheid forever*

Huge respect

What a man. What a player

One of the few, who could tackle Lomu. Rip all time greats.

I totally agree.

Great doco of an amazing springbok. Pity the weird music.

the best no 13 of all times , love this guy ; from france

Why spoil a perfect video with that tribal throat cancer song?

simply the best 9 ever and a massive loss to the world of rugby... RIP big fella

R.I.P ou grote !!!

RIP JOOST

dankie vir jou diens. RIP

RIP Joost

RIP JOOST

They need to find another Gerber

LOVE IT YOU WERE THE BEST AND PEOPLE MUST LEARN FROM U

And yet Toetie and the other coaches keep saying how we never played running rugby, these were the days when our side was one of the true greats.

First I've ever heard of him but wow, even from this grainy footage, what a player. Power, pace, acceleration, devastating stepper. Blessed in every facet of the game. His balance looked outstanding, such a balanced runner and able to step off either foot. Such a pity he isn't around today as a young man, he would have the rugby world at his feet. And SA rugby could do with a talent like this, as an Englishman it's been a while since any of your backs have excited me like Gerber would. Last great SA back would be peak Bryan Habana. Perhaps Willie Le Roux, but not to the same extent.

Joost Van Der Westhuizen vs Aaron Smith

the best no 9 ever to play the game. such class on the pitch and even more more off it your a true insperation to us all.about how life can be so cruel.but your strengh and courage is unreal a true rugby legend you are i take my hat off to you outstanding player quite simply the best

Jy's n Legend Danie. Daai musiek toe hy score teen die Pommies, maak n man se hart bly.

The greatest! Simply.....
