    I’m English. SA were amazing in the final. Down the pub we were obviously disappointed but many of us just clapped at how good you were - especially this man here…. Only the worthy can lift the hammer of Thor. So much respect for this guy, the game needs men like this.

    Wat 'n legend Duane! I also lost my dad at a young age which really made this clip hit hard, a real unexpected emotional twist to a rugby interview. Rugby, and sport in general, can really bring people together and unite us. Really proud of Duane and the other bokke for their performance the last couple of years.
    Also, this interview format is just excellent. Can't wait to see more.

    Thank you Duane for everything that you have done for SA. We love and appreciate you and all the sacrifice that you have made for us. Can't put in words the joy you bring to us. You and the Boks give us hope even when we face difficult circumstances. Thank You Sir!!!

    Alot more people refer to Eben Etzebeth as the game changer are so wrong Daune Vermeulen is the hardest player in the springbok team Eben is good but Daune is the biggest heart player ever in the last 8 years of SA rugby.He is not an iron his a tempered steel,human being.

    Duane is a legend, screamed for him to be selected before he was picked. With Scalla and Rossouw that was one of the best loose combos we ever had.

    Inspirational player. The 95 RWC entrenched rugby in the WHOLE population, and Chester was the man to involve people of colour, and that grew, look at the team today, magic magic players. Many have brought skills never seen in SA rugby, and maybe world rugby. The tries by Habana, the speed, frigging amazing. And RWC 2019, Mapimpi and Kolbe were in a class of their own. That final try by Kolbe was pure magic. And the team just went on to be greater.
