The Road Less Travelled | Pieter-Steph du Toit

The Road Less Travelled is a documentary about the trials & tribulations faced by our rugby heroes - this time we look at Pieter-Steph du Toit.

[@NashMav]

Man I'm happy this guy is finally getting the recognition he deserves. He's been insanely consistent for years now. 2019 was a dream for him on the global stage but the form he had in 2018 was unmatched.

[@itude1237]

Pieter-Steph, you are a true legend! Truly and utterly deserved World Rugby Player of the year. A humble legend of Bok success!

[@ZO150ZO]

So good to see a proud father talk about son's achievements - well deserved PST

[@6002095119087]

A lovely story of building and aspiring. Good to see his gracious humility and acknowledging his Lord.

[@ay613]

U believe the Gospel?

[@thembelanihdlamini5395]

one of the best players in South Africa rn. It was really a joy to watch him play in the WC

[@Sibsebo]

What a player. He was in “Beast” Mode @2023 Rugby World Cup . Amazing human being off the field. 🏉

[@sipheleleqalaba7675]

I REMEMBER TELLING MY FRIENDS ABOUT HIM BEFORE THE WORLD, SAYING HES A TOP PLAYER, FUNNY THING I FORGOT HIS NAME AND ALL I COULD REMEMBER IS THAT HES PLAYING STYLE IS EXACTLY LIKE SCHALK BURGER AND THEY PLAY THE SAME POSITION....GOOGLE HELPED ME, NOW HES A WORLD CHAMPION, BEST RUGBY PLAYER AND THE REST IS HISTORY..

[@Bennusan1]

One of the hardest workers in international rugby. Well done PSDT!

[@AfricanSouthernCross]

What a family.....South Africa really has a wealth of talent but best of all is how humble Pieter - Steph is.

[@DAllan-lz3lg]

The boks are always so well mannered. Absolute beasts on the field of course.

[@tinygoliath3091]

This needs an update now! What an incredible father to do that for his son. ❤️🏉

[@zoelizeslifeasbestfriendsv7689]

What a humble world - beater. Keep up the great work champ👍🏻

[@carolmorris404]

I have cadaver bone and cartlige in my shattered knee. I am grateful to the John or Jane Doe. Pieter-Steff can thank his dad. What a wonderful respectful family.

[@heinrichnewat4736]

Watching this incredible story of PSDT after being the POTM in the 2023 RWC Final. It is just remarkable. AMEN!

[@jnadler6586]

Great vid! Thank you for showing the background info about his life: family, school, set backs! What a great role model.

[@notw22]

Incredible! legend in the making!

[@bubblemonster7725]

What a great dad he has.

[@gerhardvanwyk8182]

Jy is n goei voorbeeld vir alle S.A. .mag God you vir ewig seun en you famielie.

[@kckriel8827]

They make them big in the Du Toit family

[@tonywybrow2767]

Most well deserved 15 player of the year, a true champion.

[@brettpinkerton8101]

You are my hero

[@murraycampbell4043]

Good Boy!!! Great Player!

[@t.bozmkw3562]

When the Boks beat the AB's in Wellington PSDT had a huge game. I saw his fire then.

[@sexinativity]

This guy has such a striking resemblance to Juan Smith in all facets

[@nuckingfuts3204]

True. But I think he's better. One of the few players in this generation better than that golden generation.

[@SchalkSmit09]

Pieter won the world cup for us when he scored that try under the poles

[@lamintouray7386]

What a legend!

[@gnieu1278]

Ja boet.... Dit is baie mooi... Die Here is altyd daar vir ons. PRYS DIE HERE

[@GS-zo4pr]

Gelukkige huis = gelukkige lewe ! Jy is ons land se trots !

[@marcov3709]

Wow !! instead of waiting three weeks , his dad went into surgery to donate ligaments to his son , " old parts in a new body ".......incredible story.

[@warakibho7803]

what a man

[@finleynyakundi6044]

Here after he won the world rugby 15s player of the year 2019

[@mjrooney710]

Proud Papa

[@samuelwasike3764]

His work rate is huge

[@critiqalvii2465]

An inspiration

[@petergoodelle291]

Sa is tough to beat with pieter in the lineup.

[@brettpinkerton8101]

Lov a local guy

[@FundiCrypto]

Junior World Cup winner - and Senior World Cup winner~!!

[@chrisdurig5423]

This video shows why SARU should get rid of quotas

[@bobbybobby3070]

Not much to do with quotas anymore - European clubs are raiding our schools before even representative schools. Family moving and academy offering getting offered to 17 year olds. At next World Cup - even more South African trained schoolboys will be in playing - just not for SA

[@itude1237]

Bobby Bobby unfortunate, but true. After RWC victory, hopefully we’ll entice some good ones to stay.

[@mariovautrin9866]

en sondag was hy inni kerk :-)

[@neilsmith2823]

Humble beginnings. Funny

[@DefriaManda]

Here aftet the elusive 28 tackles and winning 🥇 the 2023 World Cup.

[@luvomahlasela383]

Little did he know that he'd be man of the match in a World Cup final.

[@peterbishop6613]

Jan Boland Coetzee was the only Bok to go to the same school as PS

[@mse5842]

26:21 Me: Hey I've seen this one People who only watched du TOIT in the world cup: What do you mean, its brand new

[@LiquidNation100]

So he's always been a flanker, interesting. 🤔

[@dunxx906]

I didnt know that either, helps us realise why he was picked there and why he stuck to it as it is his preferred position

[@francoiswilliams]

Een bul wat NIE uit die Vrystaat kom nie ne...

[@Wolf-hh4rv]

Awesome rugby player…. But like Schalk Burger not into weights…. You can just dream how good these guys would be if they could really embrace what the gym offers

[@Benie1984]

He's a very talented player. But his privileges and opportunities far outweigh that of others in the Malmesbury and Western Cape region. Around 21:30 they claim that their farm workers can also achieve this level of success. Perhaps. But not really. Owning the land Vs working it are totally different struggles.

[@ChristopherHitchens3.14]

I agree in a way, but disagree in general. You must be pretty good to either be Mapimpi or Am or even Kolisi..completely disadvantaged, but still make a success..if you're really good you will out perform even the most privileged! PTSD is a hard worker with a passion for the game! I have no doubt that a farm workers boy can be the next Kolbe or the next Am! If you think they cant, you lose the initiative! This is not America! This is South Africa!

[@willreesyoung7998]

He doesn’t derserve player of the year

[@willreesyoung7998]

Quintin Tarantino you’re right Alun Wyn Jones deserves to win

[@carolmorris404]

Will Rees Young, Why not? Please justify your comment.
