Inside the Boks - Episode 1

We go behind the scenes as the Springbok coaching team explain resting protocols and their plans for the 2023 season.

[@headintheclouds6935]

Springbok social media has been lacking for years. This is a step in the right direction

[@nyashadzasheshawnrowe7891]

True

[@kings.r.d4009]

Exactly with one of the biggest and proudest supporters in the world, it’s crazy how they haven’t utilised Social media, particularly KZbin to give insights like this and others for a team we all Love.

[@shaunprinsloo3311]

Exactly

[@partagas5455]

Goes for all of rugby, club rugby sides especially

[@wilddogsrugby]

Agreed. Awesome to see 🔥

[@timwannell6477]

England fan here. This is awesome coverage. God bless Rassie. The GOAT indeed.

[@kings.r.d4009]

Good luck this weekend, love from 🇿🇦

[@ucesaftf9383]

Yeah Graham Henry’s win rate wasnt that great at all 💀

[@rhyswilliams4893]

I agree. Wasn't this the general work of a European club though? I get its a huge change for them but maybe its what has held back the international sides at WCs.

[@TwoCentsRugby]

Great show 🍻

[@asghaabjob9603]

Whoever came up with the idea of sharing this needs to get a raise .Well done Supersport👏🏽Thank you for sharing

[@roryingle2246]

This is actually good business practice. Everybody seems comfortable to ask for clarity if they're not 100% sure of something. Good healthy environment.

[@Budge94]

Great content as always. Irish fan here, Springboks are my close 2nd team. Have a special collection of Springboks jerseys. Watching the legendary Springboks of 2009 got me interested in rugby. Love all the content, especially Chasing the Sun. Was super delighted when you won the 2019 world cup. Hope we can meet in the final this year. Think we're the 2 best sides really. Best of luck for this 2023 season

[@kings.r.d4009]

SA supporters have the utmost respect for the Irish and the way they play, cant wait for our next encounter because the last one was intense in all aspects, good luck for the rest of your 6 nations campaign, with that Grand Slam on the horizon. 🥳

[@Mike-ym6rl]

Good to see the internal process. Transparency creates understanding.

[@rhyswilliams4893]

The we got the 80% the games before are working out that 20% we aren't sure about... prime example of why you can't judge a team until they play in the WC

[@conradrichards3363]

Other countries management taking notes verbatim

[@Pltjr33]

Com’on Rassie, Jacques, Deon and Sticks and all the Springboks staff. You guys all rock and we are all behind you 150%. Don’t think we have even been in a stronger position with players experience and end of year performances. Watch out All Blacks / Ireland / France!!

[@ethanroche9839]

This is AWESOME, hope there are more episodes to come. Rassie is the GOAT

[@neilcarpenter2669]

He's an Asshole who has done incredible harm to the game and tarnished the reputation of SA around the world which took some doing as most fans around the world were genuinely happy to see SA become world Champions and the benefits it could have for the country going forward.

[@waldoludik508]

Yes,,, this kinda stuff makes you immediately understand certain decisions regarding players throughout the year. I like that players are managed so well,,, its the key to winning these days. well done guys!!

[@brianzungu3249]

Professional and transparent. Shows they value us.

[@fanievanvuuren5245]

Well done Rassie and team. It all makes sense. All the best defending the CUP.

[@amoloney1984]

Munster and Ireland fan here I have so much respect for Rassie and the Boks

[@TheJunglecrab]

Purpose of this video is to show clubs, player sponsors, tournament sponsors, players, agents, the public, what’s been done by the executives to manage the players

[@Bambi157]

In good times and in bad. Always a bok! Rassie is a complete genius.

[@travismcgarry]

Wow this kind of insight is awesome to see. Please keep them coming…

[@thenullifiedtake]

This is amazing! Thanks for the content and a look behind the scenes. Rassie is a true innovator and maverick of the game.

[@brandongoing9648]

This is brilliant, great insight into what goes behind the scenes of the Boks.

[@mariusswart8769]

Most feared team in the world!

[@stephenpeteranderson]

It's about time. Every other nation does this. Well done to the social media team. Welcome to 2023.

[@peacefulheart1431]

The Springboks are blessed to have managers like Rassie & co... proudly South African. Are we ready for the RWC🤔🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦

[@kaalvoet]

Not yet but prep have started still got some way to go

[@bokkeboret8187]

This is good for all supporters to get an insight into the back room stuff and so interesting in this World Cup year

[@noluthando6757]

I admire how NIENABER never took it personally when Rassie never missed a bit as Bokke coach even when official title changed from Coach to Director of Rugby

[@elduderino3236]

Awesome!! MORE PLEASE

[@garthkillian7464]

This is such a good thing , helps me understand why things are done in a certain way. Thank you for doing this , its absolutely brilliant.

[@rhyswilliams4893]

This is an interesting watch. Once the boks get over this initial blend to the NH game it will be incredible for both sides

[@Mikeup104]

the Welsh management should watch this. :')

Made my day

[@SeanLarkan]

Pretty basic stuff really but interesting if you’re a bok fan; agree it could have been more tightly edited. At least this was more professionally done than the weird press conference videos which are produced where the sound makes them almost inaudible. Nice to see input from such a cross section. Also good to see no load shedding impact during the meeting! Hope they have a similar ‘vergadering’ over how to slick up our boys’ inter-passing & speed-of-ruck efficiency (& defence for that matter) to match the Irish/French & NZ Super teams where they are scarily well prepared and drilled. Thanks Good luck guys!

Andy Edwards should remain with the Boks even after world cup

[@pierce7368]

can’t help but think the very long point about rest weeks during 6N feels like it’s to show everyone they need to joon

[@seruvakawaletabua1031]

After wstching this Iam at peace. Even if we dont defend the RWC this year we at least teach other nations that Rugby fans around the world should have a peek into some of the internal processes. Transparency is a besutiful thing. It relaxes everyone including the players.

[@MattConnolly-wi8oh]

Great insight.

[@rogermcclune5267]

I’m going out on a limb here, and taking the brilliance of Rassie into consideration….it’s WC year, Rassie wants to retain the WC with a passion, and however great this presentation is, and I suspect lots more before WC, Rassie is taking the opponents on a ride to the East, meantime we’ll (the Bokke) comes in from the West….😅😅😅

[@jacomeintjes9709]

Thank you for sharing this video. While I found it interesting, I must admit that the length of the video made it a bit difficult to stay engaged throughout. I would suggest more video editing in your future episodes to keep the audience's attention from start to finish. Overall, I appreciate the effort and the fact that you are giving the rugby public an insight into what happens behind the scenes.

[@asghaabjob9603]

Think of it more as edutainment and not entertainment .Learning and listening is hard....keep up😉

[@kings.r.d4009]

I guess you spend too much time on TikTok or KZbin shorts, attention span has been diminished. Please don’t take offence, I don’t mean any. I thoroughly enjoyed this, especially because it was long, informative and about the team I support. 🇿🇦

[@dalenewton9697]

If you can't/don't want to concentrate for 28 minutes or get bored then just press the pause button (space bar on keyboard) or skip forward (right key on keyboard). Problem solved, no? The only thing achieved by editing stuff out is that you take away people's ability to decide for themselves what they watch. There is no way to edit stuff out without ruining the video for someone else because everyone is going to have their own take on what is interesting.

[@masimthembelala7020]

I don't like this. Are we not exposing our plans to the opposition by releasing this before the WC?

[@pondareplay69]

Definitely a red herring. The boks have scripted this entire scene, throwing us off their scent. Phenomenal acting.

[@sachinbangaru737]

Even if they know what are they going to do? Teams know our DNA already. It’s the South African way. Fair fight. #GoBokke

Jy hulle mase ...kom reg kom reg ....rassi must come out of retirement

[@ignus-pp4ph]

I'm 5 minutes in. I am really sorry, but the rationale I've heard so far to join URC is weak. From a fan perspective, I am more happy to watch a better quality game at 7 am than watch a lesser entertaining match at 6 pm on a Friday or even a Sunday. I'm not an elite athlete, but can I assume that they would rather have longer flights and tours to Aus and NZ than to play non stop throughout the year with less rest and also in continously different climates?? Honest question.

[@elscruffomcscruffy8371]

As good as a coach Rassie is, there's no excuse for having a whinge at the ref's. The Boks are allowed to lose to a better team on the day.

[@jacqueskirstein9833]

I'm wondering if we should try and get the focus back on the rugby instead of the refs? I'm not one to say you should back off, by all means, express your thoughts and feel free to carry on with it going forward, but I do want to suggest we let bygones be bygones - there's so much world class rugby out there and I think we're lucky enough to get this kind of entertainment on our doorsteps.

[@yavaulie2839]

Its easy to say when your not on the block. I wish each team gets a chance to experience it. Now in the world cup many teams complained about reffing. All I wanna say Welcome 2 our world. And nothing happened to any of these whingers. Wheres yh bans for dupont and his coach and others ? ???

[@kings.r.d4009]

So no team shouldn’t have insights because other teams do it? I’m not understanding the logic.

[@mushimi_]

@@kings.r.d4009 A country full of people that are quick to bash the English but also quick to steal their ideas apparently... embarrassing

[@kings.r.d4009]

@@mushimi_ buddy if you think that insights of a team were created by the English, then this conversation won’t go anywhere because I’m in no mood to convince you otherwise, but in short, the English rugby team were not the first to do it, and won’t be the last. Cheers. 🍻

In what way? There's nothing much innovative here to be 'copying'. Just basic player management.
