For someone with limited knowledge to the game of rugby, that was a brilliant observation of the two powerhouses of World Rugby. The Springboks being all about a power game, physically dominating the opposition, whereas the AB's are so much more skilled and clinical in their execution and punishes teams on even the slightest of error. From SA. 🐐❤️
That Quater Finals game against the French gave birth to my favorite meme of 2015. Three Frenchman ran into a bus; the damage was Savea Nehe had that step though. . .worth the reaction
@@michaelhohaia1651 Yes, passing just wasn't in his mindset that day hehe! Hell of a down-to-earth, kiwi bloke and wears his success well. Will be interesting to see how he and his mates' plan for Otago rugby evolves.
It's not unreasonable to considering this the best AB/ rugby team that's ever played the game, every position had star players, and alot of the players were at their peak performance during this era.
And even teams like South Africa, Australia, England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales get completely hammered by New Zealand some time and they’re top tier
The 2015 all blacks squad was probably the greatest all blacks squad to ever exist and you could make a very strong argument they were the greatest squad to ever play the game in international rugby
nehe was a beast at that wc, bolted into the team last minute with an outstanding super rugby year, unfortunately injury has plagued him since then but was known as one of the best steppers at the time
I still remember a quiz show from England (?) where the question to the woman (English not her first language) was "what is the name of the New Zealand Rugby Union team. She replied "black...black" host said "yes I'll accept that - The All Blacks"
You seem extremely informed with your current rugby knowledge brother - perfectly said with how tonga needs more funding (just as well as all of the islands)
France rugby team is super.... France defeated New Zealand twice at rugby world cup But most of the time New Zealand have beaten every team New Zealand defeat south africa 57-0 2017
@@Trajan2401 Not as good as SA. Wallabies had a few controversial calls making it into the finals and the teams young inexperience I feel proved to be the difference in the Grand Final.
Great reaction 😎 You need watch & react to their recent game on Saturday. These are the new generation ALL BLACKS, lots of young & upcoming talent. All BLACKS VS USA 2021!!! 🔥🔥🔥😁🤟🏾 The game was on this past Saturday the 23rd of October. Cheers
HEY USO the ALL BLACKS ARE PLAYING USA this weekend so make sure your tuned in this weekend saturday 3pm USA time lassssshko (ps ALL BLACK DIE HARD SUPPORTER)
This was by far the best world cup squad ever assembled. This squad had all 100+ test cap all black players both at the time annnnd they 1s who have achieved it to this day. This team will never be beaten, and just a little bit of insight into how good the all blacks are, no 1 has a winning percentage against them, they have won 60 of the 101 games played against the SA team and that's the closest team to having a positive win percentage against us
@@Trajan2401 in that time span they literally played 23 tests, just in the space from 2011-2015 they played 61 games and lost only 3 times not only did they win back to back and achieved the only world cup win away from home they played almost 3 times the amount of games against tougher opposition too so yeah I'd say they are by far the best
Conrad Smith would be one to react to, as would Jerome Kaino. 2 of the best players ever, and yet this All Black team had even better players around them. Ben Smith is certainly full of beautiful poised highlight reels if you haven't seen what one of the greatest full backs can do. And that's before you get to your Dan Carters/Richie McCaws. This team had Kevin mealamu, Kieran Reid and the Franks props to boot, along with one of NZ's best ever lock pairings both in top form, and seemingly everyone else on the field in form also
@@jamiebloxham777 ,wouldn't go that far there have been too many great AB sides in their 117 year existance the 1965 ABs never lost until 1970 the world champion AB side of 1987 never lost till 1990 there have been too many great sides to specifically point out one
I'm a Kiwi, the A.B vs South Africa have always been my favourite games. I have S.A friends (travelled there a few times) so when we lose I celebrate the S.A victory, it's so sweet when we do beat them though. They are always a formidable team.
I want to say that you said you're in Southern California.. when it starts up again, you should take a trip down to San Diego to catch a major league rugby match. Ma'a Nonu plays for San Diego. Granted it isn't World Cup quality but you'll be able to see some class in a local league.
But most of them weren't born in Tonga they were born in NZ so it's not really an island v the world since most of them are from other countries.That comparison is nothing compared to NZ and India in cricket India have more cricket players than the whole population of NZ yet NZ are the number 1 ranked side and world champions just to show you size doesn't matter that much sometimes.
@@Trajan2401 it’s still pretty impressive though. I’m not sure why you’d want to minimise Tonga’s achievements. Also many NZ born Tongan players will choose to play for the all blacks
1995 world cup. All Blacks Beat Japan by 145 to 17, if that was what you were asking. Simon Culhane scored 45 points in that game. a try and 20 conversions
@@naddanbb that's not World Cup though. also those aren't countries in IRB if new Zealand played that team you mentioned it prob be 500 -0 so no point even posting it given the nature of this you tube
That 2011-2015 vintage was amazing from the All Blacks. Even before that but particularly during that time. There was a very good SA side as well and we only managed one last-gasp penalty goal win at home against NZ.
Okay dude whatever you do, don't watch the latest USA vs All Blacks match.. Ironically you asked couple of days ago if there were ever a team who conceded 100 points (there have been couple of teams who conceded 100 points, most against all blacks).. And USA just conceded 100 against the all blacks in their latest clash🙈
I hope you saw the USA vs All Blacks on Saturday DC. In 1995 The All Blacks beat Japan 145 to 17. This weekend All Blacks play Wales then Italy then Ireland and last France. Yous gotta watch at least one of those.
All blacks vs Japan is the highest score against a team in world cup I'm pretty sure it was in the world cup the all black lost to south Africa in 95 it was in the 💯 anyways
That player you said about should I react to is called Nehe Milner Skudder and 100% you should react to him he's got some of that nastiest footwork you'd love to see
Lol All Blacks are not text book strategist, they are the most all rounder team in the world, brute force, brute strength, brute mentality. We are number for many reasons
3 times world champs. 1987 under David Kirk and I was like 8 or 9. 2011 under Captain Richie McCaw and 2015 under Captain Kieran Read. The 1st team to win back to back.
bro South Africa barely hold 1st on the world rankings and haven't been up there for long either, they are a great side but not as strong as you think.
