    For me the best stealer of the ball i have ever seen is David Pocock and the best humbled sportsman out there, gracious in defeat and humble in winning....Australia besides me a Scot will miss him very much indeed.Ihope he coaches young ones in the art of competing at the breakdowns there's nobody better....than this MAN DAVID POCOCK...🇦🇺

  • @MarsFKA
    @MarsFKA 6 років тому +19

    A true 80-minute player. In the last two minutes of the 2015 World Cup Final, when Beauden Barrett was running in the last try, the closest Australian player to him was Pocock, chasing to the very end.

  • @darthmaul408
    @darthmaul408 4 роки тому +53

    At his peak he was almost unplayable at the breakdown. So smart and like a limpet around the ball. He single handedly kept Australia in so many games. As a pure breakdown forward, he was superior to McCaw and Brussow for me.

  • @rugbylife2318
    @rugbylife2318  9 років тому +137

    This tribute only contains highlights from David Pocock's performance during the Rugby World Cup 2015. I've managed to include almost all of his turnovers.
    Although I'm an All Blacks fan, I believe that if it wasn't for Dan Carter's outstanding performance (especially during the Final), Pocock deserved the Player of the Year Award.
    Enjoy

      +Rugby Life Great video and I respect your respect for Pocock. I think he got robbed of the player of the year award though. An absolute beast of a player. As much as I love Dan Carter, Pocock was more influential than him throughout the tournament. That's my opinion of course.

      Mackem Slinger I respect your argument but I think you must be pretty new to rugby. Kaino doesn't start for the blues anymore never mind the all blacks, Read is starting to take a dip in form and Robshaw just isn't that good.
      Pocock is regularly playing 8 now, and his ball carrying skills have become very good.

    I lost all faith in the Wallabies over the past few years. We finally have a squad we can be proud of and love.
    Pocock is just a freak at the breakdown. If he gets on top of the ball, there is no getting him off. It's amazing to watch the tackled player move with Pocock when someone clears him away from the ball.
    He was also one of the main reasons the Wallaby Maul was so lethal. The way he stays attached at the rear is just crazy.
