Rupeni Caucau - French Assault Part 1

[@henrylagilagi8296]

Always remember that opportunity only comes once in lifetimes. The lifestory of Caucau should be a lesson to us young ones.

[@kaeso101]

I remember this...before KZbin this video there was CDs of this sold around the video stores and people bought it just to watch Caucau highlights

[@brettroux]

i remember seeing him as a 19year old for the blues.. al he wanted o do was play for the all blacks but had already represented fiji in 7's... the most balanced runner of all time... pity he is so inclinded to go awol!! the worlds greatest runner by far!

[@PeaceNSolitude4979]

His my favourite winger of all time, demolishing and speed

[@Irongaint]

2:07 look at his running form, he could've been a world class sprinter

[@Wayaboy10]

If he was trim no doubt 💯👌

[@Degenerate_Gen]

if caucau was actually bothered and tried to go to a gym every so often hed easily be the greatest player ever, but still even without hes up there with the best but hard to say he is thee best

[@simionenauluvula7981]

Henry Lees of course he's the best ever

[@nacanacanieli5238]

compare his breaks in a game to any other player you got?? 0

[@thomasdraunidalo5729]

If only he had a good manager

[@sereanaduwai8313]

Best balanced player you will ever see. Low centre of gravity and destructive speed that can be very deceptive for defending players who are left grabbing air because Rupeni has left the stadium!!

[@jonnythunder75]

Oh PLUS....he could move like a ballerina....fucking effortless.

[@bulaboie]

yu know all rugby fans who love wingers i put the challenge do you think the habanas williams and so on can do wat this guy does at his weight i mean that intercept try he burnt a guy who looks les thn half his size i mean honestly theres gotta be no doubt hes the best

[@vankai06]

i thnk one doesnt realise the size of his strides...and how little effort he puts in them...its why he looks so alien when he runs:)..and 1:11 is the best pass iv ever seen:)

[@bikesnippets]

If he'd chosen the ABs over Fiji, he's easily be the greatest winger ever. His work ethic would have matched his talent. Incredible at his peak, which would have lasted far longer. Fiji was happy to have him, and let him play fat.

[@vdotme]

American football style throw. Awesome play followed by superb kick and catch. I live in England and do try to get excited about their rugby but that kinda thing just doesn't happen here.

[@brettroux]

buddy that is the best news iv heard!!!!!!! tks so so much for letting me know!!!! great stuff!!!

[@FrayOfLight]

Screw Habana..,Put him in the World Dream Team.

[@tapapa21]

i thort jonah lomu was better then rupeni but i hav to admit now that rupeni has the best balance and speed i hav ever seen

[@floppykid]

Because that was him playing in France. He plays for SUA Agen at the moment as far as I know.

[@FuzzyMatty]

caucau is a level above lomu. Hes quicker, just as powerful but what makes him stand out are his ball skills and awareness which outclass lomu completely.

[@kiwimon3204]

Fuck off. The fat Black bombzo. Ain't no where close to LOMU. He would run over him. Around him. Fart on him. lol. More Disciplined. World famous. And he was sick health wise. Imagine he would of been the ultimate rugby player if not for his sickness

[@TM-zn7qj]

Lomu is shit. His advantage is his size. That's about it. Caucau single-handedly win games when he isn't fit. Haha

[@eronicakacaka2289]

[@sefo8396]

i recon his the greatest winger of all time

[@lionelmessi-ro1xf]

After jonah lomu maybe

[@tarzus7710]

Caucau is on a class of his own. Definitely the best winger of all time.

[@Awesome14450]

​@@lionelmessi-ro1xf Lomu is a legend and set new standards for size and strength of wingers, however when there's any new winger carving up I always use Caucau as my benchmark. There's been plenty of powerhouse wingers since Lomu, but I've not seen any winger who compares with Caucau

[@kvt679]

@@Awesome14450 this is gotta be one of the greatest statements towards this two great players.

[@seansmith9435]

@@Awesome14450look at it lomu wasn’t 100% he was sick imagine if he was playing 100% fit🤷‍♂️

[@jonnythunder75]

He ran like a fucking steam train on full pelt.....fucking amazing player to watch....speed and size..

[@kiwikoppa]

such a shame that he had to leave NZ rugby when he did. he truly was a t the peak of his powers then. he is good here, but is out of shape which I suppose a testiment to the athlete he was to still perform so well. dang he could have been an international great

[@pdd640]

FRU has given him another crack at playing for the home team at the Pacific Nations cup..in the training squad but thats a start...hopefully we'll get to see him again this year playing international test matches

[@lemekid]

Caucau is far better than Lomu. Every coach out there knows that. Lomu is a one dimensional player whereas Caucau has multiple level of skills as a ball runner, passer of the ball, can turn defence into attack, etc. In fact, Caucau is the complete winger. Whoever said below that Caucau is not better than Lomu does not know rugby or is merely bias. Its as simple as that. To compare these two players, look at the quality of tries during their careers. Caucau still tops.

[@amagyeibusumru-banson7864]

Caucau is sheer grace, poetry in motion and the most gifted and balanced runner ever, so YES, he ( and many other blokes at test rugby level can claim to have better skills than Lomu)....BUT, simple fact is : THERE IS ONLY ONE JONAH LOMU....PLEASE GET THAT RIGHT. Here is the deal with Lomu: 1) At 19, 20 He changed Rugby...singlehandedly... 2) He was biggest Allblack in 1995 team, bigger than most locks (119kg) 3) He was possibly the fastest Allblack between 1994-1996 ( 10.8sec for 100m) 2) In full flight, he was virtually impossible to stop in a one-on-one tackle 4) Often, it took 3 or 4 players to bring him to a halt ( creating space for his team)

[@bbywrx]

but his best try was against scotland 03 world cup his second of the match will never forget unbelivable

[@ifereimituicakau1007]

That's God given tallend ☺

[@JayC6626]

This guy has phrased it well.

[@lifime]

daamn got to admit even the great Jonah couldnt score trys like that, maybe in 95 though

[@pioburese3775]

🐐

[@brettroux]

hectic... i wish he was back in s14... the bet winger ever

[@beranamu]

u see thats KVT power MOCEJO!! VAKADUA!!

[@vdotme]

Is it agreed yet cause I excitedly looked at the premier league info yesterday and there is no mention of Caucau. however there are also rumours that he could be joining cape town stormers and western province. I think its not worth paying any attention to the talk until the clubs themselves express an interest in pursuing him.

[@michaelhunia3125]

One of if not the most exciting players in world rugby too easy for Rupenni

[@floppykid]

which version of World in union is that?

[@pointy69yo]

Chavanga (10.27), Habana, Ngwenya, Varndell etc etc.

[@brettroux]

SWEET... whats he doing now!! i hope he gets back into super14?

[@floppykid]

Agen theres recent videos of him. Type in Agen Vs. Pau

[@willdude21]

I think its fair to say that lomu was the greater player becasue he applied himself however caucau easily could have been the greatest winger ever but never got round to it because he couldnt keep off the weed and subsequently couldnt keep off the big macs

[@bulaboie]

frm wrld cup 95 by ladysmith black mambaza

[@brettroux]

Exciting rugby winger Rupeni Caucaunibuca wants to abandon his Fijian homeland and play for the All Blacks, Television New Zealand reports. Auckland management have ordered Caucaunibuca away from the media, but coach Peter Sloane said the player had no doubts. "He has said to me personally that he definitely wants to play for the All Blacks, but he cannot play as he played in the Commonwealth Games Seven," Sloane said.

[@gmfdilke]

caucau vs habana?

[@TM-zn7qj]

Habanas idol was Caucau. Recorded interview.

[@rbjohmson77]

Its rugby gold. Be nice if it was in a higher definition! One of you genius's out there do something.

[@S2RAGA]

freak mai bua

[@brettroux]

actually it was in SArugby magazine about 2/3years ago (when he left the blues) in an interview.maybe u dont know him as well as u say... why would i make that up? it makes no difference in my life whatsoever... hmmmm

[@beihang07]

"power, pace, agility and perfect balance" You can be right with that but that doesn't make him better than Lomu...there's more to rugby than that!!..."power and pace and nothing more" It was his power that make the man so famous, cos it is not just power but was great power, and with his pace it make it even better, and who says the man can't step?..that is not true...you should watch more rugby of him!!...thats my suggestion!

[@PaddyAtTheDisco94]

he looks like a faster tuilagi

[@gonzaloabaca2486]

Impresionante el gordo caucau!

[@nztmac]

caucau is not actually dat fast he has extreme acceleration and can chnge direction without losing speed. habana is da fastest top speed rug playa

[@yessirrr5182]

Give it to caucau and he is go go gone

[@bulaboie]

sorry this comm is for floppykid

[@willdude21]

One of the reasons caucau always looks like hes jogging (esp in older vids) is becasue he is haha in super 12 every time he went full speed he ended up pulling his hamstrings THAT is how fast he his! shame he's so damn lazy

[@beihang07]

you can't compare Lomu and Caucau, everyone know the difference between the two, they both do things that wow people. and don't forget that Lomu put Rugby on the map!!!..he is the living legend of Rugby!!

[@ilisonikolituiviti1021]

Im sorry to say that lomu can't tackle lol caucau has the total package
