Handre the heartbreaker Pollard. As a kiwi, I've gotten over that final and can truely appreciate South Africa's performance at the World Cup. There's a level of pure fucken dog in those people that make them very very hard to beat.
We, as South Africans, feel the exact same about the mighty All Blacks. That team will always, somehow, come from the back and snatch the win. They did that to our Springboks many times. Nothing but respect for the kiwis.
Good on yer Kiwi
@geoliner - nothing but respect for the ABs, as they have come from behind to beat us in the last ¼ soooo many times💔 any victory over you is always cherished by the supporters & the Boks themselves🫡
😂😂😂😂
We're not as skilled as the kiwis but we can fight tooth and nail if need be
Its great that he's so humble yet acknowledges that it was the best strike of his life. Nothing but respect from this irishman.
Supporting Ireland all the way in 6 Nations. Ireland for the WIN! 🇿🇦🇿🇦
This Bok team is AWESOME. And to me, Handre Pollard is simply a Legend.
Handre and the whole Bok team has hugely enriched our lives. We are so grateful to them.
Handre and his professional temperament can never be repeated 😮😮😮😮❤❤❤❤
Nice one Jim and Handre. Can't wait for Chasing the Sun II because what PSDT said is in the trailer and only Saffas will 1000% appreciate the meaning and effect of that in tough times especially coming from a man of few words like him. Must've been super impactful and powerful at the time , 👊. Great segment. HP you're a blerrie legend Mate - thank you!
Yeh great. But stop calling us fuckin sAfFaS. We're SOUTH AFRICANS thanks.
I went to Paris and was at that game.
It was the most tense game I have ever watched. I shouted in pure relief when Pollard kicked that last penalty over.
I was there too. Absolutely nailbiting. But I was also at the 1995 final, and that was cardiac arrest time!
No other 10 can manage a game like Pollard. He has what is known as rugby intelligence/IQ. Hardly ever flustered, relishes big moments, G.O.A.T!
What about Dan Carter then? Pollard is an awesome penalty kicker but he is not the GOAT
@@geoffnelson6756 we talking about GOAT of clutch moments here dude, stay with us. Also, if Pollard is only an awesome kicker in your view then you need to sharpen up your rugby knowledge. Pollard controls game flow, shape of attack and is a top tier out of hand technical kicker. He did these things in back to back WC finals, Carter for all his achievements can’t say that, so once again….the G.O.A.T!
@@BhengzIn80days If he's the greatest of all time at game management then how come Leicester Tigers are languishing in the bottom half of the English premiership? He has half the England team plus 3 SA players including Jasper Wiese. Face it, he is above average as a 10, but is outstanding at kicking points from dubious scrum penalties.
@@geoffnelson6756 So an underperforming Leicester team is solely his fault?😂 Let’s disqualify Ardie Savea as the best loosie in the world because NZ lost twice in 4 years to Argentina if we’re applying your logic. It would’ve been easier to just say you just don’t like Pollard or South Africa for that matter 😂since you’re in your feels about their scrum supremacy it would seem😏 point remains, in the most pressurised moments that the game can offer, he’s been more clutch than any 10.
@@BhengzIn80days You talking bo**ocks now, your original statement was ' No other 10 can manage a game like Pollard' Clearly that's nonsense, Pollard is not even in the top ten of all time best points kickers, Dan Carter being no. 1, so get your facts right before applying your biased opinions towards other people.
Only flyhalf to have won 2 World Cup finals + junior WC. Based on that alone, he is the GOAT
Could argue Dan Carter who also has 2 WC winners medals despite not being involved much in 2011 win due to early injury - injured squad members still get WC winners medal like Malcolm Marx and Lukhanye Am who go down as double WC winners despite not being involved much in 2nd WC. Big question remains - would boks still have called up Pollard into WC squad if Marx and Mapimpi hadn't been ruled out during tournament to injury because if memory serves me right they were the only 2 squad members injured who were ruled out of tournament and Bok management kept saying if no players were injured in tournament Pollard wouldn't have been called up to the squad. You wonder if they would have kept their word or faked an injury somewhere just to get Pollard back into the squad.
@@user-nk9cw5md8l if Marx wasn't injured Pollard may not have been required. I know that sounds strange but he is worth 5-10 points in a game. While Mbonambi played very well, Marx is a key player to execute the game plan, especially at disrupting quick ball or jackling it.
Kudos to South Africa for adapting and doing what was necessary to win.
That being said, some players just exude BMT and Pollard is one of them.
Morne Steyn kicked the winning points in two Lions Series. Close 2nd😅
@@user-nk9cw5md8lDan carter is the best player to play the game
Won a junior RWC too
Smart guy. As a South African, he's incredibly smart and well articulated. Still got another WC in him. Legend
I love that he WANTS to be the man all the pressure is on at those crucial moments. And that he always delivers, without ever doubting himself.
Jeez...those three knockout games (especially his two kicks vs France and England)...were out-of-body experiences for us fans! Still get chills.
To this day! I do not relive the past WC often, but when I do, I get chicken skin!
Pieter-Steph du Toit favorite player of all time! Skhombisa number 7
LOve it!!!!
For me that kick was the iconic moment of that World Cup. Long, tough conditions, tough close game and everything hung on it. I don’t know if anyone else would have slotted it.
Frans Steyn
Kick-ass scar under Handre's left eye that will always remind him of the World Cup from where he got it.
It takes a special mentality to be a big game player.
South Africa weren’t winning either of those title without him.
MotM in both SFs.
Legend of the sport.
I love this interview! So real and honest, yet humble. Really does bring home that each player was key to the Boks win, but how monumental was that scrum and then kick under immense pressure! And I love how one of the quietest players in the Boks squad got the boys rallied for one of the biggest second halves of their lives! PSDT you beast!!
We love you Pollie! Springboks 4 life! You are simply the best. 💚💛
The goosebumps ..that moment..priceless
Bro has had it since high school. Every one watching him then knew he'd be a Springbok. He's got 'it'.
Besides Heyneke Meyer. He would’ve destroyed him like he did with Frans Steyn
Love it! Especially insightful how he knows a pressure kick is coming and how he preps for it!
How can you not love this guy!
Pollard truly has the aura of battled hardened field commander or a gladiator. A born leader. I would follow that man into battle.
Now these Boks are ABSOLUTELY LEGENDARY!!!
Love from South Africa. Pollard the Goat 😎😎❤❤
Legendary!! Thank you guys for the freaking rides of our lives!
The General. ❤ Perfect 10 for the Springboks. 🇿🇦 vir Suid Afrika
Absolute bloody legend
I’m excited for Chasing the Sun 2. 🇿🇦
Big respect to this man❤
built different, ENJOYS the pressure of kicking such an important kick
What a player❤
"Best strike of my life." Ice cold sniper.
He wields the Devine Boot.
I feel it is safe to say his the most underrated rugby player in history. 2 x RWCs , 1 x Lions Tour Winner, 1 x JRWC, 3 x JRWC finals, 1 x RWC bronze medal. Been in the Springbok set up since 20 years old. One of the best overall kickers of the ball. Probably the most clutch kicker in the world. Great game management and incredible mentality and understanding of the game. If the springboks had any other 10 in world rugby for that game, we would probably not have won it.
Underrepresented in the media maybe, but he was the highest paid player in the world when he played in France and is still in the top10 right now. I’m not saying the money isn’t worth it, but he seems to be very highly rated 🤔
Jeez that was never missing.I hadn't noticed that before....too tense.
Great interview.Hey Jim, please do one with Rassie.
Awesome interview big Jim!
What a kick! What a bloke! 👊
Those three one-pointers, I mean come on! It's enough to make you believe in some Divine power at work.
And that kick - straight and true. Big fun!
Legend!
Brilliant!
Ons vir jou Suid Africa ........ mooi man great span great groep julle maak ons baie trots.
Thank you for your service
Handre you animal! 🇿🇦❤️🦾 Bokke we love you!
BMT like no other Ice in his veins for that QF kick and SF
Time to go back to back to back. And you know Handre will be there, in the final, lining up another game winner for us.
Brilliant
The Springboks have achieved the unimaginable in RWC2023... legendary... and HP was at the center of that magic... the team deserves all the accolades...
LEGEND!
PSDT probably my favourite player - he's consistent and works so hard. You need the driverchain to make the car move. He is that. You can count on him. That is why he starts every game, and that is a BIG thing to be on Springboks roster
That kick still gives me the chills!!
Pollard you legend!
Best strike in his career... damn right- mr cool himself.. and he simply enjoys these real pressure kicks.. what a guy!! We lucky to have him.
Legend
Being a 100% south african with no end to my passion for sa rugby and the springboks. Makes me so proud. Me and my wife both stand up in our lounge with a brandy and coke in hand when the boks sing the sa anthem. Goosebumps moments regards okkie
Not the best flyhalf in the world but he's got the most BMT. You can actually say that about the majority of the Springboks. We South Africans thrive under pressure. It's the way things are going in our country that made us this way.
He is definitely one of the best Flyhalfs in the world. Played 3 world cups won 2. He is already one of the greats.
@@jasonbuys172 Yeah and a bronze medal in the other one. He could easily make the next World Cup too as he is still only 29 years old (turns 30 next month) so would only be 33 at the next WC. And unless he is injured, I cant see him not being in that squad.
@@jasonbuys172not to forget....a Junior RWC title too
Except when it comes to cricket world cup semis. Lol!
@@steventheron3217 South Africa don’t play cricket. Never even heard of that sport to be honest🤔
I love Pollard. Without him we would not have the RWC. Period.
Those boys left our shores as Springboks and returned as Green and Gold gladiators. Thank you for your service legends.🇿🇦🔥🏆🏆🏆🏆
Big Jim you a blady beaut!!!!
Nice one Champs 🤝
It's amazing how Pollard has grown. In the 2019 World Cup his kicking was inconsistent, looked nervous most times. In the 2023 World Cup, he looked so mature with nerves of steel. I wonder what changed, I wish some interviewer can ask him that. Maybe other Flyhalves like Libbok can learn from whatever he did to change his kicking form. Even his run up to the ball looks shorter and more direct.
What a guy!!
that Penalty, it's one 9f those difficult Penalties ever,bt if you were thought from Development Structure and you practice kicking constantly it definitely design in your Gins, or veins.Pollard he's a penalty master piece&descipline thats why he will Shine where he goes.
Pollard the Iceman 🥶
Jim Hamilton mentioned Tom Brady, who is a Soringbok supporter, he’s messaged videos of support for them. Plus Handre had a 100% kicking record in the World Cup, has that ever been achieved before?
Yip - and Federer(whose mother is South African) and Djokovic were both at the final to support the Green and Gold..champions recognise champions..
This is the closest you'll ever get to a real life superhero. Lekke Pollies jou YSTERRRRR!!! 💪🏻🏆
cold as ice.
I just love that it shut up all his critics pre WC. I’m also a Libbok fan, just hope he works on his goal kicking, which I’m sure he will. Would be wonderful to have two world class fly halves with different playing styles.
SA rugby just needs to pull out all the stops to get Manie's headspace right. But maybe that type of thing cant be taught. 🤷♂️
Handre is a LEGEND!!
The IceMan🥶
I remember all my friends lost hope around the 70th minute mark. We couldn't see a way forward. But I didn't. I knew Pollard was going to pull a hat from a cat.
He did it against Wales in 2019😅
You mean a cat from a hat, lol
Handre Pollard 🐐
Handre is South Africa‘s husband. What a guy!😊
The General 🙌
"I enjoy it, it's really fun ..." he says.
That’s when the opposition start thinking. Don’t give penalties away if he is on the field.
After Chasing the Sun EP 4, this hits different.
Most under-rated player in the world. Never got the SA player of the year award and not even nominated in 2023! SA would not have won the RWC were it not for him (and obviously others also played crucial roles at times, like Etzebeth's try against France and the other guy's try against England and Ox's scrumming against England. But exclude Handre's crucial kicks and Boks are out.
Hulle Weet Nie Wat Ons Weet Nie. If you're not South African, you will unfortunately never understand the true meaning of that sentence. And thats ok. 🇿🇦🏆🏆🏆🏆
Pieter Steph basically said in Afrikaans, if you scared say it NOW otherwise we must make a plan!
A boer maak a plan ...South Africans together alternate the plan 😂
❤
The GOATIEST GOAT OF ALL GOATS!
im Afrikaans , and theirs a saying in our language , when you see these boys at the pub...You drive on to the next pub..this guy scares the shit out of me..
A good few AB fans forget How much South Africa 🇿🇦 looks up to them.. AB are the best and SA strives to beat the Beat simple.. so when the AB lose we really hate seeing this mighty team of fans crying. Its the the love for rugby the love for being competitive that makes the NZ vs SA so special
I’m a kiwi…and NONE forget. Reading comments on anything that has AllBlacks featuring are South Africans telling us to “bow down to the 4 time RWC champions”, “dirty cheats”, “never good”, “losers” “liars and thief’s “ and even in Jonah Lomus funeral footage are comments in every single reaction “Jonah was nothing”, “steroid abuser” etc etc There has been so much nastiness and I have seen this from videos dating back 10-15 years. The vile things said and also the cheap shots will never be forgotten.
Years ago I adored and admired the Springboks and even South Africans. I appreciate it isn’t everyone, however it is the bulk of comments that all see.
Yes, I’m sure some NZL fans have said things too, but not to the extent that South Africans have taken things.
Being humble and gracious in winning is important. Respecting other nations for putting up a good fight. France, Ireland, England or New Zealand can all beat the Springboks. ANY top team can beat the other!
I struggle now to even write a remotely half nice compliment about Springboks….and that is truly sad.
Also, face facts….referee decisions will always be contentious issues. South African fans still go on about 2011….so it’s bit rich to go on and speak about AB fans “crying”
I hope that at least some South African fans who can see one of their countrymen writing and trolling sites with bad intentions will respond in that comment to get them to quieten down and show some form of civility and gamesmanship.
I’m positive this writing will see some negatively respond…but am sadly to used to this.
All the best for 2024…AllBlacks will be meeting your team soon
Cant really say AB's are the best!
Huge BMT
I remember when pollard was in the under 20s and i told my varsity mates that he was the most clutch player from that team and was gonna be better than most of the bok fly half’s and they laughed at me cause they said i was making him seem like the next Messi of Rugby… 2 world cups later I think he deserves his flowers! Clutch player
Well where is the full interview?
THE ICEMAN HANDRE POLLARD!!!!!
Bokke ,Jaaaaa🎉🎉🎉lief vir julle
Jim is No Shortarse yet Pollie measures up to him. Gives you an idea how big Pollie actually is!!!
🏆🏆🏆🏆💪💪💪💪🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
He didn't just do it once he did it three fuggin times to win the WC. Pollard the GOAT
England have to have a total mental block when it comes to world cup games against the Boks 😅
"Ons maak 'n f***** plaan!!!" - Pieter-Steph du Toit
Pollard, Eben, willie, and Snyman can make it three World Cups in a row😅😅😅🌎🌎🙅🙅🤏🏿🤏🏿💪🏽💪🏽
Pls add Malcolm Marx
I think Damian Willemse and Cheslin have a better chance than Willie
@@user-lw2ng1jb1m Willie is playing very well at the Bulls. And he looks faster, he might have chance.
yip - Rassie and his team monitor everything about each player - if your stats are right and you are 37 or 38 or 39 it doesn't matter - you stay in the team - and of course all that experience counts hugely...
Handre is awesome high pressure goal kicker.
Such humble guy too.
But the most adaptable team in the world is the ALL BLACKS.
No team in the world going to beat TMO!!
You lost to SA in 2 finals and in a 3rd place play-off. The AB's have only won 1 away RWC compared to SA's 3. SA at 50% success rate, while AB's at 30%. One of the AB's win came when SA did not compete!
@@johnjames6620 How many Tri Nations and Rugby Championships have you won???
How many Super Rugby Championships have you won???
62 Wins plays 39 Wins.All Blacks win more than South Africa.
You guys have won 3 World cups and a TMO gift.
No team in the world can beat the TMO.
Our guys will adapt come back better.We always do.
We will even up the historical records.
In 1995 we lost the world cup.Then 1996 we beat you in series in South Africa.
In fact 1996 we beat you four tests out of five.
@@markrutherford6010 Less RWC than SA even though more appearances. I mean if you are so good then why only 1 RWC win away from home? I don't dispute that the AB's are one of the best teams but its presumptuous to regard yourselves as the best when your RWC performance is hardly the best by a long shot. To catch up to SA's 50% RWC win rate would require AB's to win the next 4 RWC's. If we look at the RWC's that SA played in, then NZ's win rate is only 25% (compared to SA's 50%). And if we also factor in wins away from home, it is 1 from 7 for AB's compared to 3 from 7 for SA. To regard yourself as indisputably the best, then your RWC performance should reflect this, but yet it trails SA by very wide margins on all RWC stats.
@@johnjames6620 Thank you for your numbers on the World Cup.
Only World Cup which is in question is the last one.
TMO decided that game!!
14 plays 15 is not game at all.
Our brave 14 All blacks lost by a single point.
I say let the players on the field decide the game.
Games shouldn’t be decided by blokes off the field.
The historical records don’t lie : All Blacks have beaten South Africa in 62 games.
The Springboks have won 39 games.
Greatness is about consistency over a long period of time.
Great teams don’t go on holidays every four years.
Tri Nations/ Rugby championships: All Blacks 13,Springboks 3,Australia 3.
Historically you guys are 23 games behind the All Blacks.
@@markrutherford6010 The French question the 1-point loss to NZ in 2011! NZ questions the loss to SA in 1995. Scotland question the loss to Australia in 2015. NZ questions the loss to France in 2007. The French question the loss to SA in 1995. SA question the loss to Australia in 2011. Every RWC, losers complain about the ref.
The AB's consistently got carded during the 2023 RWC. If you can't play clean then don't blame the ref and the TMO. It seems you hapy to take all the rewards from dirty play but now don't want the censures.
It's funny that NZ doesn't like the TMO! Why? So you can't get away with dirty play?
And maybe learn to win RWC's away from home. Only one miserable away- from-home win!
The bottom line is NZ is a great rugby team but is not indisputably the best ever. You can spin it any way you want but you trail SA as far as the RWC is concerned .... by HUGE margins: Not by 4 versus 3 wins BUT by 50% versus 25%! (as far as the 8 RWC's SA competed in) and by 3 from 7 versus 1 from 7 as far as away-from-home wins are concerned.
in the 2023 RWC SA won 4 of 5 games against the other top 6 ranked teams (80% win-rate) while NZ won 1 from 3 (33% win-rate).
Yes I'm a Springbok-fan, so this is very predictable. But I'm gonna say it. When the team of the RWC was selected there were hardly any Springboks in the team of best players per position. Also these days when best teams and the best per position are announced or predicted by rugby-pundits etc... Hardly any Springboks. Makes no sense. Especially also with the Springboks now with 4 RWC titles, even adding the fact that they were not allowed to play in the first 2 world cups with all the rest playing. André Joubert, Kolbe, Montgomery, James Small, Habana, Jaque Fourie, Jean de Villiers, the Joubert/Barry centre pairing, Naas, Honniball, Butch James, Pollard, Fourie du Preez, Joost, Faf... I can think of MANY more, and this is only some of the backline greats. Not even going to start on the forwards.
And they still compare Finn Russell to him
We South Africans know he's the best 😮😮
Love how he thinks/imagines the match winning kick before it’s even eventuated. PS: what’s with the slightly pommie accent 😅
As jy bang is, se. Ons maak n plan.
Nou hulle weet wat ons wiet
No south african faced more pressure kicks than pollard can't forget 16 all draw against all blacks in new Zealand pollard with the last kick of the match to equalize
Pollard treats he's ex girlfriend's like his penalty's, he doesn't miss them. Best joke I'v ever heard lol.
> Russell
