Danie Gerber would have been known around the world if he was playing International rugby at his peak. They only got to see him at the end of his career but possibly the best player in his position the Boks have ever produced.

[@megafoonsport]

I agree completely

[@mvubu6823]

Snyman smashing his ankle at 6:20 still breaks my heart.

[@megafoonsport]

Terrible. Remember it well

[@coatknight]

Blykbaar die soort tackles wat hulle wil stopsit.

[@jacquespieterse5135]

Beste senter wat nooit n kans gekry het nie , Ettien Botha

[@charliepepper3039]

What a talented player he was. I loved watching him cut through defenses and he was thoroughly deserving of the green and gold.

[@jandreneethling5664]

Hartseer verhaal die.. Beste senter wat ooit ‘n baberton daisy op sy bors gedra het. En beste senter ooit wat aanbeweeg het na die volgende plek toe voor hy die groen en goud oor sy kop kon trek.

[@paullouw4524]

Ettiene was a brilliant centre but not better than Danie Gerber.Will rate him as the 2nd best if he could play for a another 2 tot 3 years.But we lost him too early😢

[@johnlamb3101]

Danie Gerber - the world’s greatest centre of all time. Always just behind the ball, always ready to receive the ball and Score.

[@megafoonsport]

One of the very best ever

[@hennievanstaden5860]

Daardie tydse rugby was en sal altyd die mooiste wees!!!

[@stephenshort4281]

Danke MW - Alweer in Engels wakker geword. Great analysis and hard to dispute any of those 10 who were all brilliant in their time. I only have one thought and that is about centre combinations who were absolute magic as a combination. My vote (very subjective I know) goes to Peter Whipp and Johan Oosthuizen. Both childhood heroes or mine and produced magic every time I saw them play. I would argue that, while not maybe individually in the top 10, they would certainly be there as a combination.

[@megafoonsport]

Hi Stephen. As before, this is a selection of some great centres that we have footage for. It's not a list of thégreatest. I certainly remember Peter Whipp and some other greats myself. As ever, we are working on videos where we select the five greatest Boks in each position (from 1992) and next up next Monday is the greatest scrumhalves! Once again, thank you so much for watching. We are working on some very exciting projects for the near future: keep watching!

[@stephenshort4281]

@@megafoonsport MW not disputing that 10 in any way - all of them brilliant. My point is that if there were a top 10 of centre pairings (e.g. Peter Whipp and Johan Oosthuizen) they would be there. Not individually, but as a pair. The whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Love what your channel brings to the sport.

[@megafoonsport]

@@stephenshort4281 Yes, sorry, didn't mean to imply that! I understand the idea of centre combinations very well and it is psrt of what we are discussing in terms of the criteria for selecting out actual top 5 centres. My dad reminded me of Ryk van Schoor and Tjol Lategan as well. We will definitely consider the pairings, definitely one of the positions where it matters. Stephen, I really appreciate you watching and commenting. It is what makes it worthwhile to do this. Thank you.

WOW!💥💥💥💥💥💥💥

[@danielvanderwesthuizen2314]

Dankie MW ek het dit nou geniet 😅😂

[@mariusprinsloo1622]

Japie Krige?

[@simonvandervyver5569]

MDP WAS AT FLYHALF 10 IN THIS CLIP....

[@shukreeabrahams8998]

Daar's 'n paar ouens wat nie regtig hier behoort nie. Danie is 'n doring..

[@hesterprinsloo6695]

Ja dit was vir manne en nie vir sissie nie dit noem ek rugby om na te kyk my man was n groot rugby speller ook op sy tyd in 80ste en sy tyd❤😅

[@simonvandervyver5569]

JDV played wing 11 in his first try on this clip....

[@paullouw4524]

Huge lost to Springbok Rugby.He was DEFNITLY on his way to put on a Springbok Jersey in a Year's TIME!!!!❤

[@petrusvandermerwe-ln7vs]

EN DIE WERELD SEONS SPEEL EENDEMENSIAAL DANKIE

[@hennievanstaden5860]

Hoop die jong spelers kan sien hoe duikdrie gedruk word!!!

[@TheBliksempie]

Wat maak Jean De Villiers daar? Marius Joubert druk ń driekuns teen die All Blacks en hy is nie op die lys nie.....??

[@megafoonsport]

Dis net 10 goeie senters, nie die bestes nie, sommer net vir die lekkerte. Ons is tans besig met 'n reeks vd 10 bestes in elke posisie, en volgende is die beste 5 skrumskakels sedert 1992. Ons het reeds die 5 beste losskakels gedoen

[@mvubu6823]

A hatrick doesn't make a career. JDV is a legend of the Springboks. Using your logic tonderai should be on the top 10 wingers list.

[@delenejohannes6961]

Mannetjies was beslis die beste van almal en dan gainsford.

[@megafoonsport]

Mannetjies was ongelooflik

[@kwaggapoot9834]

Rerig? Die eerste drie was glad nie asemrowend nie.

[@megafoonsport]

Rerig ja!🤣 Jy sal oplet ons sê nie DIE BESTE senters nie. Net 10 great senters. Ons werk aan 'n reeks videos waar ons die beste 5 vanaf 1992 in elke posisie kies. Ons het reeds die losskakels gedoen, en volgende Maandag plaas ons die 5 beste skrumskakels. Die ander posisies sal nog volg.
