I’m English but I admire the Boks they come for nothing but an absolute battle every single time and we give it to them, all be it we usally lose but it’s always entertaining. Proper blokes play this game no doubt about that.
@@JackN13_ "England has won 66 of 156 matches against South Africa, while South Africa has won 35. 55 matches have ended in a draw." You've had England's number the past two decades or so, no doubt about that, but you're some distance from reaching parity.
How the referee saw someone gouging someone’s eyes, and thought it was worthy of only a yellow, is beyond me. That aside though, this is one of my favourite rugby matches, and series. Back when rugby was rugby, before they took power and strength away from the game. There would be about 7 red cards if this game was played today.
@@turangatohiariki3042I think that you’re misunderstanding apostrophes and their correct usage. An apostrophe is only used for two reasons. The first is to show possession eg John’s car is black. The second is to signify that a letter (or letters) is missing from a word eg I can’t see you later, so the apostrophe shows that letters are missing from the word cannot. That’s it. That’s all that apostrophes are for. So when you said “80 minute’s of fighting” then the apostrophe was not necessary and it was the same with “all black’s” and “Springbok’s”; the apostrophes are not required. That’s been the situation for all time; it’s not changed at any time.

It wasnt actually his fault. If you watch the game there's 90 seconds on the clock so he can't kick it out. Lions don't track back either and the SA chase is great. So he has two options, last play if the game give SA the ball just inside your half for anlinout and hope you defend to win or he can up and under and go for the win looks to his left and sees the best fielding winger in the world and goes for it. Execution wasnt good but the decision is admirable. He was also very obviously concussed moments before this. It's often edited with other clips to make it look different than it actually was.
What is amazing is when one is on the winning side, hard is just that, hard! But when you start to lose it sometimes becomes something else; suddenly it is dirty?!?!
The reason you can't differentiate between bard and dirty is because we always play your weak team hard and you never beat us so your small frail ego gets hurt and you say it's dirty play.
I was there! Tickets to this match was a birthday gift from my father. I remember watching Morne Steyn's kick traveling, it felt like an eternity, but when that North stand at Loftus started cheering even before we could see it sail through, the crowd erupted. One of my all time favourite memories.
I’d always want the Lions to win or England to win. But I love the way that SA (usually) play the game. Tough and direct with great finishers. Yes, playing on the edge that way does result in unlawful acts with people like Corne Krige and Bakkies Botha seemingly preferring to play dirty rather than clean. I’ve just watched SA beat the AB at Twickenham and they used their power game to perfection. England certainly won’t win the 2023 World Cup but SA ought to be semi finalists at the very least.
@@OboteOjok I’m afraid that my prediction will turn out to be 100% true - I can’t see England beating SA (but then I said that about the semi in 2019 when we played the AB).

@@OboteOjok and I always thought a banger was a sausage….SA v NZ will be brutal - in the rugby sense. The thirst for revenge for England is there but you must have the tools to get that revenge - and I don’t see England have those.
I agree it was stupid and doesn't belong in the game. However, it was pretty commonplace in those days for that kind of thuggery. French leagues were the worst.
And yet no one talks about it… it’s like Roy keane - his legacy should be one of thuggery and pre-meditated wrecking of a man’s career. Somehow still on our screens every week
Watching Botha and Sheridan square up was great! I had them pleasure of meeting bakkies in Toulon (when him and Sheridan where teammates) and he was so nice and professional, so strange how much these guys change when the whistle blows
@@coatknight there is also huge ego at play which bakkies had in abundance. He was a thug at the end of the day and often went after weaker men. He gave Sheridan a push and probably realised it was a bad idea.
Had that game not had been in South Africa, Berger would have got 12 months. It's amazing how everyone who goes on about how good he was seems to have completely forgotten this incident. The guy was a thug in this match !!
Best test match I've ever watched - it has absolutely everything. I'm looking forward to Ronan O'Gara gaining redemption when he coaches the Lions to a series victory in SA in 2033 ;)
I love this prediction. Even though we didn't win, this is the best match of any sport I've seen. A bombardment of pure intensity and aggression for 80 minutes.
How about the soccer match between Netherlands and Portugal at the FIFA World Cup 2006.? 16 Yellow and 4 red cards. Umpire stopping the match every minute or so.
For all the bigotry and hate towards SA in the comments, one should consider where it comes from. UK press are particularly skilled at demonising whomever they wish. If you want the truth, don't be lazy, analyse match footage yourself and make up your own mind rather than just believing what you are told. You might find that the violence comes from both sides
Dislocated his shoulder.. was physical .. Springbok team protested the following week by wearing a black armband saying J4… meaning Justice for number 4
Should not have been cited for that. Even by today's standards, the clean out was perfectly legitimate and just unfortunate that Jones got injured. Jones himself deserves a lot of respect for coming out and saying that it was a fair hit.
The English and French taught the Springboks how to play dirty. Thankfully the South Africans rose above that and decided to play hard rugby without any dirty playing. Now the rest of the world should follow.
I remember a day I went to watch the Sharks playing the Auckland Blues in Durban, and I was sitting quite low on the stands, close to the turf edges. JP Petersen was on my side of the field. I just couldn't believe how big this bloke was for an international winger. I kept getting distracted, trying to get my head around how this frame could reach the speeds of a Bok wing, because I had seen many international wings before, and they weren't like that. To boot, Joe Rokocoko was his opponent and looked just as big.

"The most violent rugby match ever broadcasted live"Rubbish. There are more violent matches than the one you used. Funnily enough a lot involve South Africa.
As a Lions fans most of the old school internaitonals were far more violent than this game. Having said that - Burger should have got a red card for eye gouging in the first few minutes. The ref bottled it. The other injuries were all just things that happen in a game of rugby. Even Botha injuring Adam Jones was a rugby incident - I think Botha got banned from the next test - but that was more to do with his (well deserved) reputation as being a thug and the fact that Adam Jones dislocated his shoulder. The Lions probably would have won this test but for the fact that they were decimated by injuries - They lost both starting props - Jenkins and Jones, both centers - BOD and Roberts. ROG came on and had a shocker. Getting run over twice resulting in tries and his stupid up and under and penalty.
Gouging is an automatic red. The ref knew that if he sent Burger off so early, he would have been villified in South Africa for handing the game to the Lions. It reminds me of that cowardly ref who robbed the French in the 2011 final.
I remember this tour, there was one point where Pierre Spies literally held onto a guy with one hand. I think this was the game where Heinrich Brussow threw a guy from the ground into the ground. But also, Bakkies Botha in a match will always be violent
" The lions have south sfrica ratlled" hahahahahaha, I thought the English commentators were so full of themselves that day. Had to switch between local and English and oh rhe joy
Agree with the comments, and guys i think everyone is being abit harsh on andrew brace .... yes most of his calls are wrong but we cannot keep saying that his the worlds worst referee when world rugby dnt correct his flawed ways..... Its the institution not the individual idiot....
He got an eight week suspension and he deserved it. O'Driscoll got nothing at all for his assault on Danie Rossouw and Heaslip got nothing for his elbowing Bryan Habana in the face late after Habana scored his try; then there was O'Gara taking Du Preez out in the air.... You seem to have a tendency to only look at the opposition. You should have a look at your own team from time to time.
@@Karma-qt4ji those are nothing compared to the disgusting act of eye gouging, any true rugby player or fan knows this fact. Tells me something about you 💩

I've seen games of local kids touch rugby more violent than this
I remember this tour, there was one point where Pierre Spies literally held onto a guy with one hand.
I think this was the game where Heinrich Brussow threw a guy from the ground into the ground.
But also, Bakkies Botha in a match will always be violent
Which year is this game ?
This needs to be shown to American football fans who claim that their sport is the most brutal team sport...
which country is the lions's team ?
Britain and Ireland, joint team
" The lions have south sfrica ratlled" hahahahahaha, I thought the English commentators were so full of themselves that day. Had to switch between local and English and oh rhe joy
Agree with the comments, and guys i think everyone is being abit harsh on andrew brace .... yes most of his calls are wrong but we cannot keep saying that his the worlds worst referee when world rugby dnt correct his flawed ways.....
Its the institution not the individual idiot....
good old old school rugby from the bokke - Love watching us play limies
Matfield trying to be the big man with the little guys as usual 😅 you should leave that stuff to your partner
Was this the rematch for anglo-boer wars?
How on earth was that first bok try not converted 💀
Boks are dirtiest side ever and its a shame south Africa were allowed to compete again after their record in human rights
Oh pointing your finger at the boks while other teams also do it , btw did you see that sa is one of the most disciplened teams in the world cup
Pffft
And thats the Sprinboks😂
Wasn’t schalke in the wrong turn film ?
I'm glad they found time to play some Rugby in between the fighting.
Disgusting from Burger, should have had a red and a long ban for such a cowardly act. 💩
Also O'Driscoll for a no arm concussive offside tackle on Danie Coetzee. Disgusting.
He got an eight week suspension and he deserved it. O'Driscoll got nothing at all for his assault on Danie Rossouw and Heaslip got nothing for his elbowing Bryan Habana in the face late after Habana scored his try; then there was O'Gara taking Du Preez out in the air....
You seem to have a tendency to only look at the opposition. You should have a look at your own team from time to time.
Pity they didn't hospitalize o driscoll dirty sod
Common SA trait.
@@Karma-qt4ji those are nothing compared to the disgusting act of eye gouging, any true rugby player or fan knows this fact. Tells me something about you 💩
