Which is why that Jaque Fourie try is probably the greatest try of the decade. Everything hinged on him crashing through all the defenders.

@jasonshaun6657 3 года назад

He actually didn’t expect the ball because he got poked in the eye inadvertently then went to the wing. Next thing he looked up and got the ball.

@MetYsJa 2 года назад

if Jaque didnt score that try, we lost the series. Thats how big it was.

That 2nd test in 2009 was so good I had to download it to my laptop. The only game I'd put above it is the 2019 RWC final. Even as a South Africa fan, I'm grateful that the Lions are a part of rugby. 2021 tour is mouthwatering. Can't wait😊

@quinnfreeman2487 3 года назад

Monumental series for S.A rugby as well. Can't wait for the up coming test. South Africa hasn't played a game of rugby since the world cup. It's going to be interesting.

@chrisreynecke3129 3 года назад

Never play a test series without a solid kicker, the '97 tour show the Boks that, they fixed that in 2009. The kicker will again be the difference in this tour.

"Its not the jersey you put on but the jersey you take off" is the PRIME example on what sets us South Africans, and Southern Hemisphere teamps apart from the northern hemisphere and why we have 4 world cup titles. In south africa, that green and gold is in our blood and DNA. That jersey NEVER COMES OFF on that pitch, blood and sweat is only and will always be for Mzansi. Anything else does not matter. 🇿🇦🏆🏆🏆🏆

@patrickchilds2987 3 месяца назад

I don’t understand what you mean about putting on or taking off jerseys. How does it separate the hemispheres and what has to do with winning RWCs. I understand that the Springboks gold and green are symbolic to South Africans but aren’t you going a bit overboard . Yes south Africans should be proud and that is great but enough of the its in the blood and DNA, you just sound ridiculous

@chazidazo 3 года назад

Hadnt realised it was fourie bumping off o gara for his try - which cut his eye up and meant he misjudged his kick in the last minute and conceded the penalty. Crazy

@xpat73 3 года назад

He was actually when tackling Spies a few minutes before.

@henkstols9326 3 года назад

I have watched this match a couple of times and also the BIL doccie, O Gara unfortunately made some average decisions and was playing for himself on that day. Also after watching his interview after the Boks taking the wc in 2019 I realised his true nature and the fact that he would cheat to stay in a game I have nonliking for the guy.

@@quentinquentin6752 Jesus don’t jump . Wipe your tears up. It’s only a game . This is a video for the 2nd test and that’s what I’m commenting on . It’s got nothing to do with his previous achievements. He’s won all sorts , a legend of the game and now managing a top team. His career doesn’t have any influence on my comment. I was watching the game and immediately said a final whistle he was awful and handed them the game. he came on and everything thing he did was shit in the form of decision making and execution. He probably did have a concussion…. He should have been taken off the pitch. But he played on . We would have been better with 14 men.
