The Rare Review | Australia v South Africa | The Rugby Championship 2024 | Week 1

[@lwandamfenqe2056]

This is not the first time I'm saying this to you but I'll say it again, I saw you when you started out reacting to rugby and you were clueless but the will to learn the game got you here now, it's been beautiful to watch your progression it makes me wanna pick up a sport I have no clue of too maybe your American football

[@RareSoulTV]

It’s honestly almost like being a kid again and learning about the game and figuring out who you like and why over the years then eventually getting to understanding it. But the adult version haha

[@willemraaths1763]

Try the WNBA. Follow Caitlin Clark. I started following the WNBA for 3 months now. I know basketball isn't big in SA and I never really had the taste for it. Until CC22. You don't have to know it to see pure genius at work.

Agree, his honorary South African status has been approved.

I started following you just before the WCup.like it then,and now you're a pundit in the game, keep it going ❤️👍🇿🇦fan

[@ricardosmallberg678]

I actually waited for your reaction - you have grown exponentially on the knowledge of Rugby salute man - you actually know what you are talking about awesome structured reaction salute yourself man 👏

[@gideonburden2141]

Bokke fan here. Been watching your reaction on Rugby Union for some time, love how your technicality on the game have improved. All valid points. Growing up with the Tri Nations, we do need the Aussies to be good, it's good for the game and good for Southern Hemisphere Rugby. Well done on the commentary and pronouncing the names (they tend to be proper difficult)

[@mannyc4123]

Geez you've learnt very quickly! Impressive and nice to hear.

[@reubenkruger4921]

Been here since day one with the rugby reactions and still loving it 🔥

[@dawidkoekemoer2958]

I agree.

[@flyingllama2315]

Good take on the game. Liked how you went through and discussed the stats.

[@anwarfaardiel5214]

I love your reviews. I agree with the other gentleman you should start to coach a junior team and grow with them and the trick is there should never be one player that's bigger than the game itself. Respect to you from a ardent Springbok supporter.

[@jeanm27]

We could've had more tries if Willie didn't have white line fever.... But hope the Aussies get better soon because we do need them to be strong for representing the Southern Hemisphere along with us, ABs and Pumas

[@archibaldwittes2855]

Territory instead of Position, great channel.

[@thenomad47]

The scariest part is, in the Craven Week, SA school Rugby, there's a scrum cap wearing player called Cheslin Arendse. Even I'm scared by what would happen once he gets to bok level 😂

[@k0bra3eak40]

That should be illegal. Can't just put that together like that

[@thewandaliciousone]

@@k0bra3eak40🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣

[@ricardosmallberg678]

your observation is incredible, absolutely spot on - you would actually make it as a rugby coach - yeh man - should considering starting a junior club in the USA (in your neighborhood)

[@fernanddurler4709]

Next test in Perth-boks make 11 replacements…that’s how deep we play….Rassie believes in every man to give his blood and life on the line …and he has many injuries but not worried at all just giving our first crue selection to be rested and ready for the bigger games when it counts

[@louislynge]

As an Aussie I can say that we are no longer a tier 1 country in Rugby Union. Too much has been put into League and Union is forgotten about. We got knocked the F out (Chris Tucker voice).

[@nox6885]

Twin brothers Arendse and Kolbe 😂😂😂

[@realriaan3620]

Australia's poes. I had to wake up at 6 in the morning. Couldn't Braai, couldn't drink Brandy. Just a lot of Coffee. We kicked ass so early in the morning! Wallabies and Portugal are like the same.

[@annettekolb3103]

😂😂😂😂all saffas feel like that. Braai didn't bug me I was still in bed watching. However Australia stepped into their on trap with the scheduling of the game. Wildcard lost his mind because of that😂😂😂 plus side 2nd game you can light the braai and have a beer instead of coffee and rusks.

[@Ranger_ZA]

Why coulnd't you braai or drink brandy? Perfectly acceptable when theres rugby on at 6 the morning 😁

[@realriaan3620]

@@Ranger_ZA wife have rules. I cant be drunk before 12 oclock

[@closelaugh185]

there is no law against drinking brandy at 6:30 am ;)

[@annettekolb3103]

@@closelaugh185 agree and this from a non drinker. Light your breakfast braai who say you can braai for breakfast. 06:30 in SA it is 12 somewhere else in the world like Aus and NZL😂😂😂😂. If the plane have taken off then you are in the clear. I am happy with my coffee and perhaps as ouma rusk or 2 however prefer homemade more. But biltong droëwors and coke go down much better

[@Linda_D]

Hi, I really enjoyed your live. I love your passion for this awesome game💕 from your very first rugby vid to now, shows you hard work and dedication. You also bring an element of funny😁

[@RareSoulTV]

Appreciate it Linda! 💯💯🙏🏾

[@jacoetsebeth150]

Australia had to kick due to the Springbok rush defence. It was the only option.

[@realriaan3620]

2nd test, Australia will want to keep it tight. Tight in the forwards. Not play the passing game in their half too much. Not kick it high, but because of our rush defense, they would be better off kicking it flat and long. They should make our forwards turn around and make our backs play from the back foot. They should avoid mauls and Scrums, if possible. In defense, they should have 2 tacklers in the 1st and 2nd fazes, one to tackle low, one to attack the ball. Try to snatch it, rip it away. But to be honest.......there is nothing that"s gonna stop the Boks from beating these Wallabies again. And by the way, Craig may have beat Debou's ass, but Smokey was always the hood Hero.

[@willemraaths1763]

Sacha Feinburg-Mngomezulu is to rugby what Caitlin Clark is to the WNBA. Would you agree?

[@111safwat]

Kinda the same but Sacha doesnt have the hate that CC22 has

[@RareSoulTV]

Naaa, maybe to the springboks but I wouldn’t say rugby as a whole. Caitlin Clark literally SAVED the WNBA just by stardom/fanbase. Sacha isn’t there yet for the entirety of rugby I’d give it to Antoine DuPont before him tbh

[@pieterneels1212]

your rugby knowledge is amazing my brother. you should visit and go watch a game live

[@jamesbond8191]

No Soul, Oz will continue to kick. They will have no choice since pressure will dictate their tactics. They may try a few new things…but so many of their players were injured due to facing the night of the Boks, and they have nothing as replacements. Oz are also psychologically damaged after this loss. It will be a very hard day for them again…

Aussies Kicking was bad, but they were going nowhere with the ball as well.

No…the record of victories was in Brisbane no other place in Aussie. Boks are back to back champs dude…three Pete coming 🎉

[@DuanePayne-q2y]

So sorry the Argentina team beat your New Zealand team but shit happens 😮😁

[@annettekolb3103]

IMO.... Wallabies had so many opportunities however our boks out play, out smart and beat them even if Luke Pierce gave them 1 try 😂😂😂😂. Aus gave as good as they got but no match to the boks. If aus played Pumas yesterday it would have been a even match IMO. Problem with Aus is all the talent is going to where the money is AFL, footy and overseas. If aus open their horizon like South Africa and Pumas that allow their national team player to play abroad and allow them to come back for International tournaments you will see a different team. Same goes for NZL. Ireland, France and England are also close minded when it comes to that however they are happy to contract SA player because they know the talent they gonna gonna get. What is counting on our favor our players go abroad learn from different coaches and play all over. Japan players get to extend their rugby careers due to the fact that they off on long breaks between season. That alone is a positive. Aus just contracted Elrich Louw and another bulls player. Did you know Fiji is currently carrying nzl financially. That should not be the case but because NZL didnt want SA teams in super rugby playing anymore they lost revenue and crying they miss us and want us back however we moved on. Super rugby can open their doors to Fiji, Tonga, Samoa, Japan, Portugal, and so many other team in south Africa we have in the current currie cup the cheetahs, pumas, griekwas and griffons as well as EP Kings take them in open the door with 1 foot. Stop complaining and think with your brain and not greediness. Teams like the sharks, bulls, stormers and lions have varsity academy team playing in the currie cup invite them so they can also get fair game time in super rugby while urc is on. Australia need to be more open minded and then they will grow. Same goes for New Zealand

[@subbie5498]

cheetahs and pumas could work

[@annettekolb3103]

@@subbie5498 all the clubs and franchises in south Africa that is not part of the urc can only benefit from the super rugby and so for aus and nzl. Look for example at the cheetahs for the 1st time in a long time they now have a 2nd team to practice with.... growth, thank you Frans Steyn. The sharks academy is so big at the moment they can use the currie cup and academy players to play there with JP Pietersen as coach. Give them game time and time for growth.
