IRELAND DO WHAT THEY DO | SPRINGBOKS vs IRELAND Review 

The irish team was very clinical and what i love about them is they just adapt and move on and come back stronger Im a springbok fan but watching the irish play was just outstanding. Well done guys you were amazing ... well deserved win.

That was a bloody match. That Irish 15 was awesome. As a Kiwi, I think both teams would have beaten the ABs yesterday.

I'm Delighted as an Irish fan but our diciplne was very poor second half but that's testament to the pressure the boks put us under. My man of the match was Caelin Doris or Jamie Osborne. Wish it was 3 games.

Ireland were playing the world champions at home. They were missing lots of players. They were written off after losing in the first match which they deserved to lose but having said that they hung in there after a poor performance and could have drew or won it if Lowes try was allowed. In the second match they were under massive pressure in the second half but they managed to keep SA from scoring a try and amazingly won the match in the dying seconds. It was a phenomenal win and shows the incredible grit and resilience of that team for never going away and playing right til the end. SA wanted to steamroll Ireland in both the matches and assert themselves at the best in the world which they are. But Ireland gave as good as they got and I think surprised a lot of ppl by their performances and attitude.

Too many outstanding moments and players to highlight. I'd rather just say that was one amazing test - and our All Blacks will need substantive improvements to avoid defeat... but I think our test program lends itself to at least giving us the time to developing those improvements. South Africa, Ireland, you guys deserve your Number 1 and 2 spots! (Dammit!)

Irish Fan here ,just Subsribed because you are always showing repect ,Even though your are a SA Fan aswell,you always give Respect 👍

As an Irishman I found this video good and unbiased. Thoroughly enjoyed. Cheers

No need for a 3rd teat. Both teams were excellent. As an irish fan i don't think it would be appropriate to call either team the winner. They were equally fantastic. Take a bow. 2 best teams on the planet.

I hope to see your channel grow man, heaps of potential. As an irish supporter youre definitely my favourite saffa pundit. You just love the game and thats the key. What a game, it was gangbusters and had everything. My voice still hasnt recovered. Couldn't be happier for osborn and frawley, oh the minerals! Was really disappointed with kolbes dive, hes one of my favourite wingers. Please dont turn our beloved sport into football kolbe, youre better than that. Thanks so much to South Africa 🇿🇦 for hosting our humble small country, we are so proud of the lads, of andy and to be considered rivals of the best rugby nation powerhouse.

Great review Dude. We are privileged to witness the beginning of the Sacha era and the Osborne era. Irelands B Team. are fiercely competitive

Psdt giving the ref grief after the final whistle was pure class after Rassie's comments about the ref getting an easier time with sexton gone. Not to mention his football dive. Etzebeth and De allende can say what they want about Irish players but at least they dont dive like they're playing in the euros final. 😅

Two very good teams, bringing the best out of each other.

We’ve never won the World Cup but we’re still rugby brothers with our pals in SA

Great series, great for the neutral, great for Rugby! It probably should have been a three test series, but look, now we all can't wait for the next test! Well done South Africa, you were brilliant hosts, I think respect between us has reached a new height - good luck in the Rugby Championship and see you in the URC in a few months! ☘☘☘

As a 65 year old Irish man I love it that we can now compete with the best. Being able to give the world champions 2 good games in their own patch was awesome. Rugby is an amazing game but the fans are what make it for me, there is such a great atmosphere at rugby games and such respect between the fans. This tour has brought forward some more great new young players for us and I can't wait for the autumn series and the six nations!

Should have been 3 games. Imagine if JGP, and Hugo Keenan were available. It could well have been a 2-0 win for Ireland. But 1-1 is fair between these two top teams. Pity no third game and it's a pity about Jason Kolbe's attempt to cheat by pretending to be fouled. We don't want that in rugby. Aside from that, Conor Murray scored almost exactly the same try as last weekend. The Boks never looked like they were going to cross the try line, Ireland really tightened up their defence.

Ireland have won 2 of the last 3 meetings.

So proud of our men out there today. Proper gladiatorial

Ox got MoM. For me Doris was the outstanding player in both matches. Lions captain .

Murray surprised me. Solid game

I so wish there was a third test. Fantastic effort from both sides over the two tests. Edge of the seat stuff! Your analysis of the game was great mate!!

Third test in Lansdowne Dublin please! Kolbes can repeat his saddo deliberate dive. Go play football son! 😅

there was a high tackle on Doris in that last play . how it was not picked up was unbelievable

Thanks for your kind sentiments re Ireland. SA's reputation for fair speak, sportsmanship and ye're welcome of the Irish supporters is ringing out all over the country here. We have a lot to learn from your example.

Spring Boks showed their clas. PSDT and Kolbe diving like a couple of footballers 😂

It's was a nerve wrecker of a game. But we got there in the end. We need a 3 game serous next year. There 2 of the best gladiator teams to play the game. We need the box office serous next year. In Ireland 🇮🇪 this time

What a series. I think the newbies on both side knocked hard on the door & then smashed it in. Blood & guts all round. A 3rd test would have been great but as it stands it definitely keeps this brilliant rivalry alive. Well done to both teams. Rugby was the winner in the end.

Excellent rugby channel. Enjoyed your magnanimous comments about Ireland and the match in general. Your enthusiasm for great rugby, even in a loss, shines through. I particularly like your unbiased and impartial analysis. Some other rugby channels out there could learn a thing or two from you!! Here, have a subscription!!

Great analysis. I'm an Irishman and I have to say hats off to your completely unbiased approach. I'd struggle to be that fair. Fair play to ya. You were spot on about the changes the Boks made. Also thought Faf didn't have one of his better game, whole thing became way quicker and fluid when Williams came on. Mngomezulu was outstanding. He's gonna be some player. Doris yellow card definitely, almost lucky at that. For us, thought everyone gave it everything, scrum under fierce pressure again. Boks on top there big time. Thought Osborne was superb. High ball, it's my ball!! Kelleher had a great game and all front row replacements stepped up. Frawley will never have to buy a pint in his life ever again. You were dead right too about Murray. Thanks again for a totally unbiased and enthusiastic analysis. Where's the third test??? 😢

Irish fan here great match .any team could have won but overall i would give the edge to south Africa overall

You’re so right , a 3rd test desperately needed 😂. What a great rivalry this is developing into !

I'd like to know what SA fans think of Kolbe's obstruction appeal at the end. For me it looked like a cynical attempt to milk a pen and steal the game. An embarrassment to a great bok team.

Great game awful pity bok player dives at ireland players feet as frawley kicks the winner,then trys to call obstruction,he should be sited,this isnt soccer,and then bad vibes from some bok players when they lose,just accept on this day ireland were on balance the better team,only team to score a try

I’m glad there isn’t a third test. Both teams have taken a huge beating and wouldn’t have enough first teamers to settle the debate. Another point is that I think it’s better for teams like SA to play a third summer test against a lower tier nation to help grow the game.

Late, late scrum on our own 22. The all-or-nothing grubber. The all-or-nothing drop.... Jesus!! What balls, what drama.

The Irish learn adapt and overcome man. Same with the series in NZ. Lost first one poorly while sussing out the AB's then BOOM BOOM games 2 and 3.

They where 2 amazing games. Both sides missing key players. I would have loved seeing both sides blood new players. Start 7 older players and 8 newer ones be some learning curve for young players

I think although a third test would be desirable I don't think Ireland would have had the legs for it. It has been an incredibly long season (15 months) and the Irish players competed in two international tournaments (World Cup and Six Nations) as well as club commitments. The boys really just need a rest.

Great games. Very fine margins. A credit to both teams as they leave everything on the pitch. The games are so intense to watch and while sometimes not great rugby the individual skills and passion are absolutely riveting. Well done and a draw series is a fair result. Yes a decider would have been nice but but squads are pretty beaten up.

Frawley did a Wilkinson, what a way to win it for Ireland

Respect Bro, what a test , it is dangerous these two teams playing each other, it is like a gladiator battle, a third test could have resulted in serious injuries to both sides. Best they both take a rest from each other. Greeting from Ireland and respect to South Africa for a fantastic series.

Buddy the ref won it for the boks first game

It's great that both teams and games were competitive..Gotta love it...

I had a gut feeling that Ireland would sneak an ambush here despite my head saying the Boks would win by 7 to 10. Always trust your gut feeling eh? 😀 You have to hand it to Faz for his man management though. We were down so many key players so he decides to drop POM and Aki and bring in some of the guys on the periphery. Osborne, Frawley, Blade and McCloskey all delivered on the day when it mattered. Great test series between two great teams. Yes a third test would have been awesome. Maybe in a colder, wetter and windier Cape Town which would have probably suited Ireland better? Anyway, let this great rivalry continue. Rugby is better for it! Best of luck to the Boks for the Rugby Championship.

Two really different teams with different attributes but in recent years have always been so close. Fine margins.

Cracking match and series. Could have gone either way. ... First time in years seeing SA beaten up in a half ... serious heat brought by the Irish in the first half. My worry for SA is the huge number of 30+ players in the 23 man squad ... big job for Rassie

Gave you a follow as i respect the fact that you give respect to your opponents. Some S.A. supporters come across as arrogant. Anyway that was an amazing test match by the 2 best teams in the world at the moment. Could have went either way. Rugby was the real winner here. Im actually shocked Ireland kept the springboks tryless at home. Well played to both teams. 👍🏻

Listen why Nigel Owen’s said about Lowes try

What a contest! Two great teams full of commitment.

Boks are number 1 and that’s it for 4 years. Irish people know this. Our goal is a World Cup, but until then… 😂

Ahh cmon guys over two tests Ireland scored more trys ☘️ so can you give us back our No 1 title 😂😂😂❤ great tests so much excitement it was fitting it finished the way it did ❤❤

Amazing that SA didn't even score, from the field of play, Ireland scored 3 times from the field of play

You s are definitely no number one world champion s but we're good we have a lot of belief great game

"against all odds". Last games have all been extremely close and Ireland have won 4/5 of them. 3/4 prior to this game

What a pity we couldn't get to enjoy a three-game series. A third game would have cemented the Springboks as the number one rugby team in the world, and improve Ireland's position as the second best team.

Good channel. Insightful and charitable to both sides

Im definitely in the minority here, but in a way I'm actually glad we dont have the 3rd test this time. This way, it seems to me that the old cliche of rugby being the winner is more true. If one side or the other came away with a series win, then that is where all the focus would be. This way the respectful rivalry stays strong and we all stay energised to see what else these teams can go on and do.

Despite wonderful individual performances over the 2 games by many my player of the series was Caelan Doris. He was the standout player for me even in the first match and overall his individual contribution both individually and in terms of leadership he gets my vote.

It was just a 9 month period since the last World Cup.

Man of the match Caelan Doris by far.☘☘☘☘☘☘☘

Just subscribed, top class analysis.

What a game! How can we leave it like that? Clash of titans with nothing between the teams.

It's a shame its just a 2 game event, a decider would had been great.

Great analysis

All sports are fine margins , so character is the only diff so the top 4 could beat each other on any given day. Ireland made so many mistakes to give away so many penalties but the key to Ireland is the multitude of strings to their bow which all teams are aiming towards

Very nice analysis. Thank you.

Where's my IRELAND DOMINATE title? 😉😉 just kidding of course great game

It absolutely needs another test match! 😭👍

Lekke channel Sherrie💪Paul Roos liefde🤙

Your review was fair and accurate great tests cannot wait until we meet again ..

Petition to have 3rd game in Dublin before 6 Nations pretty please

The reason why there is no third tests World Rugby after the 2023 World Cup ordered that this Summer |Autumn there would only be two tests some countries went with this like Ireland ,Wales and England, South Africa for instance went and played a test vs Wales in Twickenham and Portugal at the end ,leaving no room for a third Ireland test, I very much doubt Ireland would agree to it their season began in February 2022 second to France, won the test series in July 2022 in New Zealand, Autumn series, Grand Slam in 2023,Summer series and World Cup, Won Six Nations in 2023 and headed to South Africa time for a rest on 2nd November they play the all Blacks

What happened to the all new all polished Tony Brown attacking system? Seems to have disappeared after half time in Petoria. Far as I can see, Kolbe got one pass in Durban, which he dropped and Arendse got none.

Agree with this gentleman, should be a third test but these lads are all playing a 13th month season which is ludicrous even for professional athletes, had we had a third test, well after Wellington last year, who knows??

On what planet is a one point defeat a humbling?

We done very well over 2 games against the world champions 2 great countries lots of respect

Did the final drop kick touch the ground?

Maybe now the boks will put in a specialist 8 !

But there was three matches ,one in the world Cup and two in South Africa ,Ireland won two so they are the better team, why do you deny this ?

Is it fair to call Ireland and South Africa even as the top teams in the World

Remove this humbled nonsense. We're not humbled, we are coming back stronger than ever. Well-done Bokke thank you for putting yourselves on the line for South Africa. Let's regroup and stay no 1.

Well if you count the world cup match there have been three tests...

Last gasp victory by 1 point - is that humbled?

Am I the only 1 who’s gonna criticise Tony Brown’s style of play?? Why fix it if its not broken

Faf de Klerk should be fully fazed out of the bok squad & retire from international rugby

Shame man it look like the irish can only lift themselves for one game to beat the stronger teams.

Humbled????????

Beir bua

1 game won by one very questionable point. Other game they lost by a try both games with northern hemisphere officials and with zero RWC’s they might be number two with us (England) but the Saffas are truly number 1.

24/3= 8

We have about 10 players in our squad that need to be let go.the players in our squad ha e becone too familiar with each other. 2 time wc winners is enough..its become stale. On the top of my head.. Faf..Nyakne..Bongi..Mostert..Willie ..move on from them. Faf needs to move down to third on the depth chart..he becomes irritatingly confidently kak. Play Williams ..goce him the starting berth. Stop playing 36 year old Willie..we have played him so much that even if he is shit..him not being there makes us more shit. Give Damian amd zulu 1 and 2 on thr depth chart. Mostert..dont know why Rassie persists with him...a 110kg lock who offers nothing beside tackling. Am at outside offers more to Jesse even if jesse is playing some good rugby..Am is definantly a better player this is not opinion. Marco van Staden with that knock on..unforgivable. harsh but thst cost us nr 1 spot. Might be droppped for that goong forward.

Lots of Irish fans on here talking about arrogance and being humbled. You won a rugby game by a drop goal and a 'woer-woer' one at that, in the dying seconds. Glass houses comes to mind. And yes, we get it. No one likes us and thats fine with me. We dont need your affection or approval. We will be back. As if all the Springboks achievements is nullified and the whole of SA is put in its place by this loss. Maybe WR should change some laws in the way Ireland are defending the highball with the inpenetrable wall they build around the catcher. Happens too often to be coincidence. And the amount of players lying on the other side of a ruck! So keep on hating. Bring it on. Congrats on the win.

It was a series draw Einsteins....the Irish are such underachievers, champions of the Quarters!😂😂

Don`t know why phoney mahoney was screaming , exactly when did he come off the bench and what can you remember him Doing " at all " and was he " captain "

Humbled is your lack of World Cup Trophies - jokers

Irisg dont like booing and they show the box this

Ìts just a charm and game
