All 28 tackles from Springbok Pieter-Steph du Toit in Rugby World Cup final 2023 

News reports have been saying that recentley New Zealenders are looking twice when crossing the road. Once for cars and a second time for Pieter Steph Du Toit

Wow! The speed to get up and return to the defensive line after every tackle is very impressive. Great technique and no penalties! PSDT was like a magnet when Jordie had the ball!

He totally eliminated the "Barrett" threat. What a legend!

A perfect machine. All his tackles are forceful and, most importantly, they are crucial to the game. The speed and stamina he uses to get back in the line after the tackle is outstanding. World class player.

I was waiting for someone to come up with this compialation. Well done world rugby firstly. Secondly, wow...what a player and what a performance, from his younger days playing craven week i never thought this type of performance was in him. He was very athletic and skilled, scored a lot of tries, linked up, yes made big hits but his hunger to get back up and make a big difference in defence is what sets him apart these days. Hardest working forward whenever he is on the field. How anybody would not want this dude in their team is beyond me 😢

PSDT put on masterclass similar to one Olivier Magne in 1999 when he killed us. You combine the brilliance of PSTD with our 13 handling errors (we had 1 against Ireland!), some unforced but most due to pressure. This is where the game was lost for the ABs. Add to this 7 clean line breaks and SA had 37 missed tackles. We had 60% possession!! 10 penalties against SA, at least 3 were kickable and we chose territory on at least 2 occasion. We missed a conversion and a penalty. We may not like it and some of my fellow Kiwis are still burying the head in the sand and crying about officiating, honestly get over it! We had plenty of chances to put the pressure back on SA and we didn't. We played a gallant game but a bridge too far for our lads on the day. Super proud with what they achieved but ultimately SA wanted it more and we were beaten by the better team on the day. And so the rivalry continues. Well done to our Southern Brothers you have made an art form out of winning rugby with grinding defense. Granted, it wasn't pretty but it sure was intense! That's 4 RWC Finals and 4 wins! Look forward to seeing you in 2027 with a new coach and team that will blow (hopefully!) you guys off the park. Enjoy the spoils of war while they last. Next season is just around the corner.

How Pieter Steph is not in the World Team is a traversty, in a war like this game was there cant be any other choice than him and Eben you want in the trenches with you

Unbelievable performance! What a player! Well deserved Man of the match award, he won us the World Cup.

This is great, World Rugby, but open your footage up to content creators so that they can give us the insight into the game you don't. Channels like Squidge shouldn't be brought to using stills to create free advertising for you. His content is extremely important for the game and yet he's driven to using stills because of your silliness.

Notice he’s always bent at the hips, never ever high.. has perfectly adapted to the current climate of the game.. and he’s nearly 6’7. Anyone else can do it.

PSD hit Barret like a missle numerous times!! 😂

this guy played like crazy, totally amazing how he was tackling till the last minute of the game

Possibly the greatest defensive flanker game we have ever seen.

look how many times Franco Mostert is right next to him, both amazing players and huge contributions

Pieter-Steph played like a man possessed!!! What a stud!!!

Respect to Jordie Barrett - he took the brunt of that barrage! Physically - probably got a permanent imprint of PSDT's shoulder in his midriff, as a souvenir to remember the WCF. Mentally - hopefully his PTSD, of fast approaching large objects, in his peripheral vision, clears up soon too?

As I mentioned on another post. Jordie Barrett is going to have terrible nightmares with Pieter-Steph du Toit on the following weeks. Most of the 28 tackles were on him. 😂

Absolutely nuts how big that effort was! Wow!!! Congratulations🎉

PSDT tackle at 4:38 is a legendary moment and should not be forgotten. If he did not close that space and go for the hit, Barrett was out and in space. That could've been a NZ try and Peter shut it down with authority.

I am happy that P S D T gets the credit he ABSOLUTELY deserves! I only wish Franco Mostert could get his due as well!!!

Typifies SAF's old adage - "Attack wins you games, defence wins you titles!" Well done PSDT 😎

Man was born to tackle!

Just the most incredible performance!

Wow what an exceptional and examplary effort by one of the onsong underated players in our Boks Squad. The level of fitness, fatique, clynicality, execution and determination in Pieter is exceptional and often goes unnoticed. He had a tremendous World Cup Final and as an Open Side Flanker his work rate is undeniable. Up You Pieter 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Gave them kiwi's a proper taste of PTSD! 🤣 Seriously, the guy played like a demon and saved at least 1-2 tries. Well done!!

the only forward not subbed and rightly so! absolute beast

Brilliant Peter thank you son we love you

Jordie = Seal Du Toit= Great White Shark

Inspirational - what he was able to achieve in that game was super human......I was exhausted just watching this

Jordie Barrett foi marcado individualmente por du Toit. Um dos jogadores da África do Sul que mais gosto de ver jogar é Pieter-Steph du Toit.

Someone asked and they listened thank you whomever made this!

As coach Jacques Nienaber said of Pieter-Steph du Toit: He is the 'Malmesbury Missile' that have so much energy he will chase down a plastic bag blowing over the field.

What a player for the Spring Boks...Gave his absolute everything...MOTM performance no doubt...

he was absolutely immense in this game.

💪💪 Workhorse is a understatement!!...

Absolute machine… all heart and commitment… great to see him lift like that in the final…. He made a big impact…. Barret was still seeing stars when he tried for that kick…

G.O.A.T!! I'm proud of you guys!!

This man right here, the defender of South Africa

The guy is very disciplined he doesn't commit fouls

Kiwis: muh South Africans aren’t fit Steph: Hold my biltong

PSDT is 1 of my favourite ,2019 best Player of The Tournament, 2023 MOTM on the finals , what a story to share to the next generation ❤️🏈 , PSDT 7 💪

What a game and what a performance!

PTSD you legend !!!

2:50 The hit, and Barret's face is just a work of art

He's a force of nature

Title of the video should be "Jordie Barrett gets PTSD from PSDT" 😅😅 Poor guy, I'm sure every time the ball was coming his way he was thinking..."I can't see him, I can't see him! Where is he??" *SMASH*

Got to be up there for best 6 of all time now

I'm tired by just watching him make those hits. Massive engine.

Notice how he didn't get a red cars cos he didn't smash his shoulder into an opponents JAW.. he always bent by the knees to show his proper intent and he's taller than the man who did get a red card. just had to mention that.

Absolute machine👍💪🤯👌

His work rate is something on another level! Simply insane

Unreal performance, almost never is a player so menacing on defense like pieter steph du toit. The game has a defensive threat aspect to it. Strong defense is attack. Particularly rush defense and high kicks. Strong deliberate defensive "set-ups" cause turnovers and penalties which cost possesion and or territory and eventually points. It also allows you to physically hit your opposition when they are in the most vulnerable moments. Unbelievable read from the boks, they have redefined the way the game is played and few understand it.

Thats like tackling all 14 players, twice!

One of the best. Peaked in the best game. He hurt himself there with that last one on Jordie.

Was waiting for this vid all week!

That man won the world cup.

du toit is a player that all young players (including myself) should be looking up to as both a forward and back. the hard crunching tackles that make rugby such a spectacle to watch makes the game so, so exciting.

Nice to see World Rugby coming out with these highlights so quick so we can see other RU-vidrs use it for their edits which I will also watch XD

THE MALMESBURY MISSILE

Poor Jordie Barrett 😅 He must still be having nightmares. What a player PSDT!

This is one for the coaches to show to professionals and youngsters alike - how it should be done and that it can be done for a full match. This time it won SA the world cup.

this guy was a beast 🔥

Gotta give it to Kolisi as well. They executed every tackle as a duo

Superhuman, and inspiring a new generation to be better!

What a player!

4 years ago he was just as immense on defense in the final vs England. He is a machine!! I'm glad he got the man of the match award he did the dirty work that most fans don't appreciate enough. Our defense won us this world cup and we thank you Pieter Steph!

28 amazing tackles and the commentator said his name all of 4 times... PSDT is an unsung hero

What a star.

An Incredible player.

Superhuman performance from the big man, I want to see that out of one of our locks! - A Kiwi

Best player in the world..an all rounder and hard as nails

Best of Recent Years. ლეგენდა.

Brilliant player. Hardest worker on the field in the world. Play the game clean, hard and clever. What a great asset to the game and the Springboks.

Cam McInnes broke the record in the nrl for most tackles with 81 in 80 minutes of footy

You are the best Pieter-Steph du Toit!!! The best!!!

Machine. Amazing attitude and workload - game winning.

This is a pretty great performance, and thats speaking as an ABs fan

What a machine!

Quality content🇿🇦

Awesome man, wouldn't want to get his name wrong . .

Of all the things the boks do differently i like the lock at 7 the most.

" who just been taking names all half" a masterpiece commentary

The colour of his shorts explained it🇿🇦🇿🇦🔥

Fella was a MONSTER!

Jordie was in trouble 😂

South Africa redefined the term "defending your title!" Legendary one man bulletproof wrecking ball, creating a painful wall that Jordie Barrett is still having night sweats about. Go Bokke!!!

He's a Hero

His work rate is out if this world. Has an engine on him that never quits

He didn't give away a penalty amazing performance congrats South Africa won by the hardest road.
