What's your biggest rugby regret? Let us know in the comments!
This was epic!
Not surprised he regretted punching Farrell, as fell to the floor so easily when Farrell punched him back. He must have caught him right on that ‘switch’!
Brits is smaller now than when he was at school….. no surprises here then.
Two of the best ambassadors for the sport
Two great players and two great gents
It seems there is more talk about Farrel and the emotion he brings out of people…..Maybe he cn be a peace envoy when he retires…!
Ag owen farrel is a poes man
Lol its not ROWKOWKOWKOW
Ou Schala is 'n regte matmiet..
Lovely stories, why rugby is special
World Rugby trying to make out like they don't hate Africa hahahahaha Maybe let them host one world cup in 40 years!!!!
You didnt punch him hard enough….Farrel cost us chances of a world cup final because of his no arms tactic.
I played the Owen punch over and over a couple of times…
He's not that popular here in SA so we enjoyed seeing that.
Monsters on the field, good lads off it
They need to swop trainers.
I met Jean on the way to the bar at the S.A Vs USA match in the 2015 World Cup, 2 weeks after his knee injury. He's such a great guy, really down to Earth & he hung around for a few selfies & quick chat.
2 top blokes right there.
Very cool can only imagine how werner kok must feel after his jersey collection was stolen in Cape town
Retiring at 30 – should still be playing….
His regret was only punching him once
That Irelanmd jersey is a piece of art tbh
When Brits flew for the cowardly thug Farrell, the rest of the world smiled! 😎
Clyde Rathbone was in that same u20’s team!
I had to stop after going to the airforce in July 1972 ! I played hooker for EP under 20 and also played for Air Force under 20 ! I could not afford to carry on as I was in an apprentice program and just could not afford to play I had no car ! Actually EP under 20 went to play against Rhodesia under 20 in 1972 (we won) but told the organizers before that I cannot go because I did not have money for the Air Ticket and Hotel , they bought my and paid for everything ! Oh I slept in the Kas first night reporting at Valhalla , I was a week late !
Only a left hook, jinne, if you gonna get sent off at least add a jab or 2 and a solid right. Dive in the deep end, haha. Owen not our most loved player here in SA, but still a great rugby player. All in good gest. Thanks for the show.
Jean de Villiers!! What a player!! Loved him at Munster!!
Should have knocked him out of the game
I’m on the back of that World Cup no 8 jersey!!!
2 of the all time greats, on and off the field
Have to agree with Schalk 2019 was awesome!!! World Rugby needs to recognize Japan at the best WC so far and give them another ASAP!!!
You can hear that all they want to do is speak Afrikaans
That was great, two legends and real gents. Thanks
Redefined the bar for hookers in the Premier League. A man who played so well and so happily.
I don’t understand this thing that so many appear to have about Owen Farrell. I’m not a Saracens supporter but when I see OF play, I see a winner; a man who gives everything; a man who has weaknesses but overcomes those with sheer effort. I would compare him to Kevin Keegan. KK admits that he wasn’t the most skilful of players but he more than compensated for that with effort. I would far rather have a man who gives his all than a more skilful player who only shines on front foot ball.
One of the most deserved “pushes” in rugby history.
Waoo
I lost all my respect for jean de villiers after he took a knee for blm, a movement with hate and violent political agenda against everyone who disagrees with them.
Brits is a great. 😎
Owen gets under everyone's skin. If there was a first XV for being a pest he'd be on it
Why was this guy Schalk Britz made captain? What was the coach smoking?
Great stuff, love it 👍🏼
