Let’s never forget the try Kruger scored in the 95 RWC final that was inexplicably not given.

@lesliestrydom4157 5 месяцев назад

Kwagga was the single most valuable and effective player during the vital periods the Boks needed towards the end of the last 3 WC matches.His impact off the bench was immense.

@MrMattiepan 5 месяцев назад

Brussow was mishandled by management. I feel for him. He was absolutely brilliant

@eisbeinGermany 5 месяцев назад

@riaanvanrooyen5065 5 месяцев назад

Rassie Erasmus, Danie Rossouw, Willem Alberts, Francois Louw, Siya Kolisi, Pieter Steph du Toit were/are all great flankers but my no.1 on the above video would be Schalk Burger, he was an all rounder in turning over ball, tackling, hitting rucks and carrying up the ball.

@rugbywhisperer-coachkane3038 4 месяца назад

I remember him getting dominated far too often.. I actually think he was overrated. PSDT is the greatest SA Flank of all time

@shaunhawkins7588 5 месяцев назад

When psdt is retired he will without any doubt be in the top three list of our best flankers ever,world rugby player of the year, what a phenomenal player, legend! But choosing 10 of our best flankers seems to be a very hard task as we have been blessed by many a talent!

@oldtighthead2459 5 месяцев назад

I'm a die hard Freestate supporter . Juan Smith and Andre Venter are my two best Freestate players of all time On my list of greatest nr 7s of all time it is 1 PSDT 2 Andre Venter ,Juan Smith 3 Danie Rossow

@user-nq1wu6oe3e 5 месяцев назад

PSDT ?

@UlrichHoltzhausen 5 месяцев назад

PSdT is a machine. Will compare favourably here. Reminds me of Juan Smith. Burger was also huge on defense. No regard for his own body.

@rugbywhisperer-coachkane3038 4 месяца назад

Burger used to get handed off by players too often

@nox6885 5 месяцев назад

@oldtighthead2459 5 месяцев назад

Brussow se impak op die spel was so groot dat die IRB die reels verander het om hom te neutraliseer

@daaichommie708 5 месяцев назад

Our players seem to be at the fore front of IRB making rule changes. They wanted to change a drop kick from 3 points down to 2 because Naas was slotting them from left to right. Then we were boycotted and it went away.

I would have liked to see a LOT more of Brussow. He was a great player

@thefobbie0034 5 месяцев назад

Not sure why Jan Ellis and Rob Louw are NOT higher - I remember Jan Ellis against the Lions and the All Blacks - he terrorised loose ball, just a 80 min machine as if someone flipped the switch on and for Rob Louw - he would be up there with the likes of Jean Pierre Rives, Graham Mourie and Ray Price! Those would be my top 2 - from a kiwi!

@takudzwamakoni5361 5 месяцев назад

Brussow was world class at just one thing. Loved his heart, but in the modern game, especially at Test level, you need your loonies to be super dynamic.

@stevenlurie1215 5 месяцев назад

@megafoonsport 5 месяцев назад

@Poepwoes 5 месяцев назад

Ek weet die reëls is nou baie anders. Moet net nie vergeet van die ouens wat nie vir "glory" gespeel het nie (soos bv Jannie De Beer) nie. (Al het hy amper die '99 semi teen OZ met sy drops gewen nie. Naas, al laaik ek hom nie as 'n persoon nie) gaan moeilik ge-"beat" word. Dink net aan die 2de toets teen Ierland voor die '81 'meelbom' toer in NZ

@zanekessler9628 5 месяцев назад

@hansielategan969 5 месяцев назад

Big emissions from this list like e.g. Francois Louw. Having Brussouw as one of the greatest, sure.... He struggled to make the starting 15. Nice to see him in a highlights package, but is full games he was not all that great. But, tis is just a list and not a true ranking of the best.

@megafoonsport 5 месяцев назад

Exactly, it is isn't a list of the best, it is a list of some of fhe greatest. As with the flyhalves, we are working on a list of the BEST flankers, and we will do that with all positions
