Shocking: Cheslin's Hometown Makes Auckland Look Like Sesame Street

[@willemivo1]

I'm a Dutch guy (no Rugby there!) who immigrated to South Africa and fell in love with the Boks. I can't tell you enough how much positivity Rassie Erasmus and his team are bringing to the country where so much hardship and negativity persist. Your respect from New Zealand is heart-warming and a beautiful contribution to the kind of optimism this country needs so dearly. Thank you so much for your heart and attitude. Just know the respect is entirely mutual. There is no opponent as formidable as the Kiwis, we see you.

[@Blimzio]

Hi. I have a wife and two 6 year old daughters and we are immigrating to the Netherlands in 6 months because of the crime and inevitable collapse of South Africa. Why did you come to South Africa, if I may ask?

[@willemivo1]

@@Blimzio Because of my daughter who went to live in SA with her mom at the time. Why I stay in SA is because I am free here. The chaos (collapse as you call it, I don’t deny it) also means I can do what I want. I can choose whatever way I want to live. In NL everything is planned and regulated (determined) for you. Erasmus symbolises the mentality to create a great life in SA: failing water? Get a borehole. Theft-level municipal bill? Get solar. Live in the bush? I can, just build my own road. In NL everything is cushioned, planned, organised, managed, where is the adventure, the excitement? Nothing wrong with that, just “been there, done that”. Now I carry that Dutch “can do” mentality into pristine natural land, beautiful beaches, good weather, etc. I wish you all the best, experience what different countries are like, have fun.

[@Vincent-q4q]

​@Blimzio I agree with Willem. I have lived within the EU for approaching 20 years. I have realised that I am a bird in a golden cage...not free, and the cage is starting to break. I have been back to SA twice in the last 12 months, and will be moving back in 2025. It's hard to explain...but Europe has problems that are getting bigger, and will prove very difficult to fix.

[@randomlyfactual1943]

Countries like Spain, Portugal ,Netherlands, Belgium, Romania, Germany - and most of all, Georgia - have been let down badly by World Rugby. Tests against Tier 1 opponents? Nope. Expand the world cup to accommodate them? Nope. Market rugby heavily in those countries? Nope. Instead, we have go keep those Six Nations pure, do we not? There is light in the tunnel, though. 2027 will feature 24 teams and it sounds like Georgia's role is being reconsidered, to promote them to the top flight of European rugby. I'm glad you found a home here with us and fell in live with the brutal game. How good was that ending against Argentina, when all the guys were just at each other's throats... But when the final whistle blew, they all just shook hands and exchanged a hug or two. To me, THAT is what this great game is all about.

The most admirable part of Cheslin to me is his humility and emotional intelligence. He does'nt seem to take anything for granted and is always grateful. Cheslin looks as if he lives by the Gary Player wisdom..."the harder I work the luckier I get"

[@22grena]

Yes and his ability to dive

[@randomlyfactual1943]

Very nice tribute to a man that will no doubt be known as one of the greatest Springboks. At a glance, his try scoring record does not seem all that impressive; one would expect him to have a much higher strike rate. But when you look a bit deeper, what this man brings is frightening. First up, consider the fact that Kolbe NEVER plays against Tier 2 opposition and hardly ever makes os chosen against any team outside of the Top 5 or 6 in the rankings. He is played almost exclusively in the big matches against big teams - never against the sides that one would expect him to have a field day. Then, have a look at the entire defensive setup of whatever team we're playing against - they always put an extra cover defender in place for him AND the fullback is never far from his projected running line. He lures defenders like flies, opening up the rest of the park for the slightly less godlike members of his team. Lastly, from the nation that brought forth the likes of Danie Gerber, Naas Botha, Breyten Paulse and Brent Russel, Kolbe is an absolutely glorious addition to the legacy of the Springbok.

[@theoclarke5510]

Many years ago when I lived in Cape Town, I was at this party in Observatory( the locals will know)... We ran out of beer, so off to the shebeen(smokie) we went in Salt Rive/Soutraavuur🤣, (a white guy, a coloured and a black guy walks into a shebeen😝) I'm the coloured guy by the way, I was left in the front garage while my mates went inside. I sat on this makeshift bench next to a guy called 'Oogies' (eyes - it sounds much cooler in Afrikaans) he had eyes tattooed on his eyelids, needless to say he scared the sh!t out of me, (being the english speaking, southern-suburbs coloured here) He was a small, thin creature, cooked out of his skull on dagga/weed. We got to talking as 'our kind naturally do' and for the life of me I can't remember why the conversation took a 'sho't left' to the topic of fighting. But herein lies the reason why Cheslin is the way he is (Sorry for taking the scenic route) - Oogies said(in his broken English), "Doesn't matter how big the bra is, or how many of them there are. You got to kill me, cause I'm gonna keep coming, doesn't matter what." That's the mentality that is in the psyche of a typical 'cape-coloured' - it's not how big you are, but how big your heart is.

[@WendyKolbe-cn8jr]

Now here's how it sounds in the coloured community, as jay my nie doodmaakie, kom ek trug vi jou,... so it may sound course,... but the mentality and reality in sport today with the coloured boys are , if i come or go for you, theres no stopping me, I'm gonna run you to the ground, and im going to score,... I'm gonna step up to the plate, swing the bat, and im gonna hit a home run... it's a statement they make, of proving to you, I'm worth it, why was i denied because of my colour, it's a good and positive determination, a form of positive psychology... and its easy to coach a player who naturally understands how and what is expected of them,... nice thing is, Dr Rassie is a great man of understanding the psychology of his boys😂❤ek likes hom baie

Kia Ora Uso, big greetings from Cape Town. This perserverance runs deep in the veins of our people back in the Cape Flats. This video indicates the indomitable spirit of our forefathers and ancestors, and very similar to New Zealand we can attestify to our skillset, manners, respect, courage, strength, agility and speed. I think this is a big reason why we in especially Cape Town love the All Blacks. Just about your video, a good presentation, we know we must not sleep on New Zealand and enjoy our process and way of rugby , so for now we lead and tomorrow it might be you again or some other nation else with all things big respect for honouring Cheslin, his dad and family. It's only but a pebble in the pond of the ripple effects of many more before him that made this possible. Until our next match, take care and all the best.

@@BlackRugby oh, you're the type to put words in people's mouths, I see. Actually, the answer lies with why so many coloureds rooted for the ABs instead of the Boks, but nice try.

I'll spell it out for you, that way you'll be a bit less ignorant about the whole thing. They liked soccer more, because it was exclusively theirs, and there was no colour issue. It was only after Mandela stepped in that people warmed up to the Boks. That, and in Rugby we won the 95 WC, and our soccer has always been ass. You're just a fountain of flagrant statements, aren't you? Doing your part in trying to keep people divided much? Kinda weird having a Kiwi talk about Apartheid as something they don't like. I mean, everyone knows that Kiwis have a malignant white superiority complex that goes back as far as Thomas Cook (the non-Maori guy that 'discovered' NZ and brought a bunch of white folks to the Pacific to "peacefully negotiate their surrender.") That'd be like P Diddy calling Oprah a monster. Next time, just talk rugby, and don't take potshots about the past. I mean, if I recall correctly, both England and New Zealand tried in the past to claim South Africa as their own. The Boers sent you back to Dixie, and since then you've had sour grapes about the whole thing. Either that, or make a video about Jason Robinson, but start it with saying how he overcame slavery, but keep it vague, so you can deny ever saying anything about it. Then wait for the first Brit to tell you you're out of order, and make it seem like it's really his fault that it was in your video to begin with. You're a funny guy, Dimsum.

Cheslin had a longer route to get in the Springbok squad, but I believe it is just that that makes him more special. His work ethic is undeniable. Coming back to Kraaifontein. I am a former teacher in one of the Kraaifontein schools and think you need to brush up on your facts before making a town sound like a gangster's nest.

Jesus Christ, talk about being salty about one fact. He hardly made it sound like a 'gangsters' nest' you bot... Fuck me, why you being so over-sensitive? How old are you? What year were you born? As someone who's educating our future, to flip out over something like this, don't know if we should be entrusting that task with you. Let me try teach the teacher here and come to an explanation.

Don’t know where you’re from but your video is very misleading! Yes I love Kolbe! Love Wade love my Country, but how old is Kolbe? Do a little bit of maths will you? How long have ANC ruled South Africa? Cheslin has had a tough life yes, but he have Never Ever lived under Apartheid!!!

[@ramsfan1st43]

It's what I was saying. People forget that ANC has been ruling for 30 years. Cape schools were the first to integrate, some in the late 80s. We grew up with blacks and coloureds, and by the time of the elections it was no longer a big deal to us. We just continued life.

You thinbk apartheid was over and a switch flip, undoing 4-5 decades of apartheid and discrimination. Cheslin is 1993, parents brought up and had apartheid shoved down their throat like every coloured parent of a millennial. 90s-00s parents still remember well what they were reduced to thanks to apartheid
