@@richardgrant418 I was thinking the same thing. David Kidwell, a former league player and coach, is the current defence coach for Japan. He has some work to do. It was amazing how players were just falling off the All Blacks, 3 or 4 at a time. Japanese teams are usually renowned for their tackling.

@ They absolutely have a lot of work to do

Great question. I was considering him, but I felt that the tour is too short for fringe players to get a look in, with only 3 matches. I think the squad will only be 36 players strong, and had to cut out quite a few players like Jordan Hendrikse, Edwill, Ben-Jason Dixon etc. A 5 game tour would have been much better. The Boks could have taken on Italy and Georgie maybe.

i would give the Moodie spot to him

@@rue-itk Rassie just might. Both players are bouncing back from injuries, so it's a toss up between the two. I picked Moodie because he's the incumbent, but Rassie might want another look at Edwill since his time was cut short by injury.

Thanks very much, Carl!

Good point. It's a tough one. I guess he and Jordie could switch, with Jordie being a handy bench option since he can play from 10 to 15.

@@Peter-kx7jl thanks. Glad you liked it. All Blacks need to make some changes

@@thegreytone could just be a timing issue. The Boks are trying new things under Tony Brown, so it'll take time to bed them in.

He was brilliant. Great to see the Boks running more than kicking. When they kick now, it's tactical.

@@CowboyRugby hope Rassie's backing will give him the confidence to overcome that mental block regarding his place kicking because his boot brought the Stormers the URC once upon a time.

@@thegreytone Either that or they must just let someone else do the kicking and let Manie continue to work his magic with the Bok backline!

@@thegreytone Please do me a favour and share this video out to all the Bok fans you know.

@@CowboyRugby Jean de Villiers has raised concern over having Manie as a playmaker with a separate placekicker.

@@paulie1926 agreed! He does a lot of organising off the ball.

Sorry about that. Try and change the quality in the settings. It was set up for HD, but I think it's automatically on a lower setting.

Seems so...default is 140p. My bad too, but stil hoping you get enough subs anyway😉

@@ewanhuisamen8005 me too! 🙏😃

@@ewanhuisamen8005 I'm not yet sure how to counter it. I'd like to chat to some coaches to find out their thoughts

@@steventalmakkies6015 my pleasure. Glad you liked the video.

@@steventalmakkies6015 please share it far and wide with any rugby fans you know. Thanks.

@@ashwen4166 can do. All Manie's plays, or a review of the game?

@@CowboyRugby All of Manie's plays will be a very long video 🤣🤣

@@ashwen4166 hi, Ashwen. Your video is up. Let me know what you think.

@@kellyrobbins8255 it's very long! About 11 minutes in total. He had some amazing passes and contributions to the game. He's a good organiser!

@@joshua.productions thanks, Josh. Appreciate it. Please do me a favour and share the videos out on Facebook and with friends. I'm trying to grow the channel. I'd also like to know what kind of videos you'd like to see going forward. Any particular requests?

@@surfsnow1371 which in particular?

Pollard did as well. 2 missed tackles. Led to tries because Eskom also had a mare and couldn't clean up - which was his job. Much more crucial than a missed kick. Be fair

@@CowboyRugby On a few occasions I think his passes could have been flatter with players running onto the ball and then particularly the pass on 3:07 should have been a flat skip pass to the wing creating the overlap and the opportunity for the inside pass similarly the pass on 3:37 could have used a skip pass or a chip over the top something creative instead Argentine were able to just Shepard us to the sideline then the fluffed pass in the 80th minute that stalled our momentum, of course I'm being overly critical but with our talent pool we need him sharp.

@@surfsnow1371 good observations.

A lot of people didn't even notice his gameplay. All they focused on was one missed kick. I'm hoping they'll realise that there's more to his game than just missed kicks. I didn't realise, until I put this together, just how busy he was. He does a lot of stuff off the ball that goes unseen.

​@@CowboyRugbythis. Pollard was gassed so early- nobody seems to be bothered by that

@@kellyrobbins8255 I think it was the heat. It was about 33° there, plus high humidity.

@@CowboyRugby I know it was hot but everyone was playing in those conditions. Ox looked absolutely fine after a shift that was about 20 minutes longer. I wonder if Handre wouldn't benefit from a return to SA? He would have to get used to rugby in the heat again and the Bulls could use a flyhalf.

@@kellyrobbins8255 I'm sure they'd love to have him back. It would add to some insane depth at the Bulls. Imagine rotating Jaco vd Walt, Goosen, and Pollard

@@richardgrant418 thanks. It's a big change from the team in Argentina. Boks have a lot of depth at the moment.

@@CowboyRugby Too right!

@@richardgrant418 can't wait for the game tomorrow! Argentina are going to go hard at the Boks. I think every rugby fan around the world is in for a treat!

@@CowboyRugby Their going hard was overwhelmed by more than just about any of us might have imagined. Imo on top of the RWC this puts the Boks well ahead of everyone. Congratulations! And Respect.

@@richardgrant418 I was expecting a much closer game, to be honest. The Boks really upped their performance amazingly!

@@mpilodigitalmarketing and a triple threat. He can kick, pass, and run, so he keeps the opposition guessing which creates space for others.

@@mpilodigitalmarketing this aged extremely well. The rugby IQ for such a young player...just insane

Thank you. Glad somebody else has said it.

@@slakhraj Rassie should get someone else to kick for poles. Faf, Hendrikse, Sacha, Pollard, Willemse. Lots of options.

@@CowboyRugby Sasha is injured. The others apart from Pollard are not recognised international kickers. It's as simple as that.

@@CowboyRugby Looks like Rassie agreed. I thought kicking duties gave Jaden a bit of swagger. It definitely didn't put him under pressure. He was outstanding. Give him more than a week and I reckon his kicking will be even better. He's also used to it - he was a regular kicker at age group level

@@kellyrobbins8255 I was really impressed by Jaden's play. He cleared the rucks really quickly.

@@CowboyRugby He was outstanding. Hard to believe he's so young - rugby IQ is extraordinary. Plays some refs like a fiddle

@@cornishpasty6926 agreed. They could play Pollard or Sacha at 12, or Willemse could kick. Even Faf could kick. Larkham was never criticized for being a bad flyhalf because he didn't kick for poles.

@@richardgrant418 All Blacks are rebuilding. They're trying to adopt new attacking structures, but it's taking time to bed in. Their defensive work at the rucks (the video I put out about their IQ smashing the Boks at the breakdowns) has been impressive. I think they'll need another 6 or 7 games to bed everything in. Losing so many top class players, and not developing adequate back up has been their undoing...for now.

@@richardgrant418 thanks so much. Very kind of you. I've coached a bit, but only at a low level. I still have lots to learn.

@@paulie1926 good question. He's a decent kicker.

@@duncgb Argentina deserved the win. Creative on attack and their error rate was much lower. Boks attacked well, but we're disjointed on defence and also made sloppy mistakes at crucial times (soft penalties, overthrown lineouts etc). Argentina were good value for money. Real character to come back from 17 points down! Very impressive!!!

@@MrOrange187 Sadly so. This will be a steep learning curve for a lot of players. The margins for error in international rugby are slim, and the Boks made too many mistakes at crucial times. Argentina attacked well, and their error rate was way lower! Need to rewatch and do an analysis.

@@duncgb Have to agree. But the Boks should never have blown a 17 point lead. Started off focussed, ruthless, and clinical, but then let it slide.

The All Blacks are closer to the boks than people realise, and probably even better. In the last 4 games they were red carded in two of them (and for significant periods of the matches too) and in the other two games they were playing away in South Africa. Pretty slim losing margins in 3 of those 4 games. As it stands the Springboks haven't beaten the All Blacks in NZ or at a neutral venue in a proper 15 vs 15 game for more than 2 years. Also what works for the boks won't necessarily work for NZ/ AUS , South Africa teams play in the URC now so they have no issue integrating players from european clubs into their set up...that won't be the case for euro players trying to join up with AUS/ NZ super rugby players.

@@Waywind420 Thank you for your insights. Especially because it supports the competition between the two should be closer than I was expecting

@@richardgrant418 it is! Some amazing players aren't even getting a look in because of the talent ahead of them. If somebody goes down injured then there are players to step up

@@CowboyRugby Talk about a great situation to be in

Agreed. Players will still need to qualify to remain eligible for All Blacks selection if they go overseas. With qualifying criteria in place, the game at home won't change. Those experienced players can then head overseas, earn more money, learn new skills, and still keep the All Blacks strong.

@@CowboyRugby Its NZRU stuck in the mud, seems fans and players renumeration feature further down their priority list.

@@paulie1926 he needs some game time with the Springboks

@@surfsnow1371 thanks so much, really appreciate the support.

@@carlfischer7940 thanks so much!

@@JeremydeTolly thanks so much. Please spread the word and share some of my videos out. Thanks for the support.

@@joshua.productions thanks so much, bro! Really appreciate it!

Thanks. Hopefully it gets seen

@@MzanziRC that's what I'm saying. The angle creates an illusion.

@@alecrosema4885 exactly what I thought. I agree with the officials' decision. Fans from both sides would have a legitimate argument for and against.

@@richardgrant418 thanks so much. Glad you enjoyed it.

One of the best sights in rugby!

It was intense! Brilliant always, but this one was extra special!

Glad you liked the video. Hopefully Grant gets lots more chances going forward. His speed and the speed of his pass are huge assets for the Boks.

@@Ebendejongh1 I noticed that too. Wondering if there was moisture on the field. He was also taking a few steps before passing. Noticed that with Reinach in Johannesburg too
