- Rugby Eben Etzebeth
It's a testament to how good a player is when you're finding so few videos of them getting knocked back. Eben is obviously an incredible player but as this video shows he's not invincible. I've tried to stay clear of cheap shots and bad tackles

As an English fan I’ll breathe a little easier when Etzebeth retires, such a beast of a man who’s brilliant every time he plays.
Well he got smashed did he not? You can breath easier now.
true,he never ever has a quiet game and gets through a massive amount of graft.
I said the same with bakkies. But the boks will keep rolling out aggressive second rows
😂😂😂his replacement is even worse imagine going from Bakkies to Eben too.. you gonna wait long😂😂😂
Watch the last tackle by Niniashvili. He gets up and makes another on the winger. Etzebeth has chased after the play and absolutely wrecks him while he is prone with his back to him.
I noticed that too.
Ehh as a South African I believe Nobody who plays rugby is not going to get tackled heavily in rugby so anyone can get smashed at any time no matter their status/reputation and size. I guess that's what makes rugby a beautiful and underated sport to play.
100% everyone gets got eventually
It's all about the timing, you are 100% correct!
Very true, hence why the rest of the world laughs when the SA fans carry on about what a “beast” he is.
Jonah Lomu. Just saying.
Man, you had to go back a long way to scrape together 5 of these...
Ur point ?
@@fearmorpiercemacmaghnais7186 think he saying he was a bit younger then and a lot harder now as a player. Dont see an equivalent player like that in the Irish pack. Coming from a die hard all black fan.
@@andremarshall3167 Peter o’mahoney
@@Jigacmurphy05 great player, but does not have the same presence as Etzebeth.
Only the 1st one was a proper smash
I love how it happens so seldom and is such an achievement, that it could be made a video
Hahahahaha exactly.
yeah Elizabeth is a beast of a man
You'll have to add James Lowe picking him up like it's the finale of dirty dancing.
Video of Eben smashed. Other half of video: people who smashed him receiving medical treatment.
Except after Billy V tackle Eben is on the floor dazed and confused while Billy wanders off nonchalantly. Another one eyed Saffa comment that
@@marcdaniels9079 😆
Imagine how great Eben must be if you have to create an entire video on the few times he was smashed
Overrated
He only picked 5, could have picked more 😂
@@jordythebassist Sure, but the point still stands that it is very rare that Eben is truly hammered in contact.
@@jordythebassistmore than 5 times he was tackled hard in a 10 year , 100 international cap career, wow, he must be shite then . Absolute fool
@@jordythebassistsheet, you mean he’s played elite international and club rugby for a dozen years and he’s got whacked more than 5 times? I think you’ve got the makings of a headline or even a Netflix documentary series.
Respect for searching so long and hard find that footage though 🤣
Just goes to show how much this player is admired and respected in order to have to make a video like this. You must have looked very hard.
Usually there's a couple moments from every game he plays that you can pick from, Etzebeth is the classic case of all bark and no bite tbh.
@@jordythebassist Cap on cap on cap.
@@jordythebassist never has a comment highlighted someone who is talking absolute bollox than this. I’ll tell you what, if you can name ONE, just ONE single professional rugby player, past or present in the entire world of any nationality, who actually agrees with you , I’ll delete this comment and sing your praises as an astute knowledgeable rugby expert……….
when he lays down after a hit, you know its serious. he hates actors on the field
You know it’s rare when they have to make videos about it
It happens to everyone at. Some point. No shame none whatsoever. It takes heart to even step on a pitch.
5 times in over a hundred tests?
Lots of times Etzebeth got handled, the autumn 2018 game Sinckler decimated him and in the recent autumn the replacement French scrumhalf dumped him, honestly they all get dusted. Sinckler got smashed by Marx in 2021, thing is Etzebeth wiil get smashed get up and then continue to dominate the game and the other players, he's powerful in the initial contact but his biggest strength is post contact he applies a lot of brute strength with an element of endurance, ragdolls everyone to the ground and is a nightmare in scrum and maul.
Last example should have been a red card for Etzebeth, he retaliated after been tackled and he hit his opponent with his shoulder on the back of the head …. Clear red and missed by the referee
Only the Vinapola supported drive-smash of Etsebeth is relevant here
Surprised to see no sa fans in the comment section yet 🤣
What’s to say? That Etzebeth is not all that?
Okay buddy, you’re pure class. Not like those boorish saffers, hey
@@mthabitX Is that the guy from a first world country?
Some real childish posters grow up !
We are here what should we say??? So he got tackled 😘
Everyone gets smashed, but the second one is a hit to the head and all of them are players in good places of leverage. What’s the point here? Are we saying Eben is not the powerhouse SA make him out to be. Ok he’s not the powerhouse we make him out to be….please don’t tell him I said that
Good to see. As does not happen much.
Guys a beast and a brilliant player that we'll all like in our side (England)
Such a pleasure seeing Etzebeth playing for Sharks in England. Complete "Machine !" Massive fan, who's not ? Although I do remember both Pocock & Hooper absolutely dominate him at 6 & 7 for Aus V SA
the Bigger they are the harder they fall. still as great as Eben is, its nice to see hes not invincible.
Nobody is.
the bigger they are, the harder it is to make them fall. i talk from experience. being as tall as eben weighing 130kg
@@RabbitholeIsrael Go play rugby. You will fall I promise.
Right at the end there, Eben comes in for the payback.
Great player and some great hits too. Also awesome thumbnail of Sexton dreaming of the World Cup, MAYBE one day..
Salty Irishman. It's ok, you only need 3 World Cups to catch up. Need to get past the 1/4 finals for the first time though hahahaha
Your the only won salty eben got made roadkill by henderson
the vunipola one was a head clash. i think 2 of these were proper tackles on him.
He puts himself in the position where he gets smashed sometimes- what all properly tough players do. Better than Courtney Lawes just targeting fly halves after they’ve passed the ball
Puts himself in a position where he gets smashed 😂😂😂 and you think that's a good thing.
So Courtney shouldn't be allowed to tackle fly halves but all other locks can 😂😂😂
Do you watch rugby ?
And the 5th one he barely flinched beast of a man
need to add etzebeth getting picked up by lowe 😂😂
A young Eben Etzebeth!!
Smashed ???????? 90% of tackles all illegal sad what passes for content as apposed to click bait ~ 5 times Eben tackled illegally
Poor Eben, when he gets hit you almost feel sorry for him. ALMOST.
Soccer 90 min of pretending to get hurt.. Rugby 80 min of pretending you're not
Hundreds of test and 1st class games and 5 times (arguably) Etzebeth was "smashed". Good odds, I'd say!
Number 13 gently set the South African on the floor!
The first one McCarthy was the one who got injured from tackling Etzebeth, I'd hardly call that one getting smashed lmao
At least 2 of the tackles were dangerous on Eben, did you notice he did not once retaliate or whinge, just get on with the game, a true athlete and world champion. 🇿🇦🏉🇿🇦
except in the last one when he very clearly retaliates with a dirty hit and "clear out", but thats fine, ignore that
@@kinghenrob34Don’t expect a significant portion of Saffa fans to use their brains these days.
@@kinghenrob34 Yeah a really dirty retaliatory hit. Eben really is a big baby
Some good tackles. These are big men who are capable of these things. Best way to play the South Africans is to match their aggression and hold your nerves in the final ten minutes. Quite a lot of Springbok opponents seem to defeat themselves for some reason. World rugby will be very different when the emerging countries develop big game mentality.
4 times Etzebeth got done by 4 people his own size or as strong as him and one by someone half his size playing for Georgia, not a peep out of him. Had it been a scrum half or winger he'd turn into the big hard man.
See the last 5 seconds the Georgian is on the deck not even seeing EE charging at him with green light to smash, what a spot to be in!
@@channelbree yeah not bad smashing a man quarter of his size that isn't even looking, takes a big boy to do that
3:20
"I think that's a dangerous tackle"
I'm fucking shocked to hear a SA commentator take the SA side.
It really doesn’t matter how many times Eben got smashed. He didn’t get smashed when it mattered most and that delivered 2 World Cups to sAf! He still is a beast to be reckoned with. Period.
I would like the creator of this video to make his next video all about the Irish and how many world cups they have won.. sure that will only be a quarter the length of this video.. 😉
Ps: 40% of these hits were made with illegal action. The other 60% of these hits were filmed when Eben started his career ( 15kg shy of his current physique)...
Why does his lighter weight matter? The video is 5 time Eben Etzebeth was smashed not 5 times Eben Etzebeth was smashed above 120kg 😂
South Africans trying to make an argument without saying ‘4 world cups’: Impossible
Only 5 times vs his 200 times in his career what 12 years and still going you dont appreciate greatness!🏉 rest in pieces(R.I.P )
World's number one athlete, YsterMan!💪🏻
I love how there's only one team that Ireland has a kit clash with in the major rugby nations with, and they manage to have a kit clash with South Africa while wearing their change kit in both the clips they're featured.
BV in his prime and a shadow of his former self now.
The comments almost make this video worth making!
Eben the all time best 😮
Best one was that little knob from Australia getting owned after, that was a danger tackle
Thats rugby your gonna get smashed at least once in your career
true
More than once. No shame in it. Take your licks and move on.
@@symeremeyers4148 that doesn't mean that sometime our players will be smashed. its a contact sport, of course it will happen
@@symeremeyers4148 England got a 53-3 and AB got 57-0 on you. Even Japan beat you and you were giving your best.
@@symeremeyers4148 this is literally a video of a south African getting smashed
Where's the video where he smashed ?
Funny how the video is only 3 minutes
Did Willem Alberts get penalised for that?
How's hooper getting suplexed
I dunno, but i feel if there was no one behind Hooper in defence, Etzebeth might’ve just carried on trying to gain an extra 20yrds..
Seems to me in most of these Eben is off balance - the Hooper 'hit' is anything but, more a sneaky lift timed well as Eben is in his stride.
Also, the fact is Eben just takes the hits and does not moan or cry foul.
He has always been a credit to SA and the type of player who wins them a few points before the match has even started and the opposition has learned he will be playing.
He takes it in his stride tho
Welcome to the PACIFIC...say hi SA TO VUNIPOLA
Imagine Jonah lomu and this guy going head to head...
🙆♂🙆♂🙆♂🙆♂🙆♂🙆♂
Etzebeth in the last clip smashed the winger's head. He's a sore loser.
Its rugby, everybody gets smashed, but he smashes far more often.
Australia one was dirty so make it 4
Alberts’ reaction was arguably worse..
Theyl be playing tick and pass soon.
I don't think any of those are smashes really. Smash is what Alberts did in the end of the video.
Billy vanilla smashed eben in the tackle there but boks smashed England in world cup final mmm wonder which hit counts harder 😂
Everyone gets smashed if playing the game proper
When did he get smashed, I missed it?
Once upon a time, rugby player gets tackled. The End.
This video: 5 times eben was smashed other videos "30 times each player in rugby got smashed by eben"💀😂😂
Springboks need to be humble
When you need to make a video of 5 times he was smashed …, just shows how goog Etzebeth is
Just another
Cheap shop
Merchant.
Head contact, no arms, red card
He's a powder puff. All show.
Over 100 caps and you could only find 5😅
5 times Ireland made it past the World Cup Quarter finals
At least South Africa can't take credit for the fact that Ireland have never gotten past the quarters. As for in Japan, the only difference between both sides was South Africa were lucky to face New Zealand in the group stages while Ireland had to play them in the knock outs. Both lost.
@@benitolonard4441 bow down to the most successful World Cup team in the Sports history and kiss Ebens World Cup winners medal...maybe you can ask Sexton if you can see his WC QF Jersey 😂
5 times SA fans cried - u could make a 25 minutes video with that
@@davidantoine8296...cried with joy.. Make it, would be a good watch.
@@NC78545 You should experience the excitement in Ireland when the All Blacks come to town. South Africa will never create the same excitement. I'm guessing that's the same in a lot countries. The All Blacks will always be the bigger attraction.
All players know that if you get wrong footed you may get ‘smashed’. It’s physics, not genetics. Those who think this is evidence of toughness, to put the big guy down, simply should play the game.
this video is outdated now unfortunately
I'm a real man and bok supporter and unlike my fellow emotional bok supporters I can accept a big clean hit on our guys as we dish out no big deal bring it on
Bigger they are...
Comme tous les rugbyman, ca lui arrive aussi des coup durs, c est pas dieu eben mais c est une force de la nature,quand on demande a Serge blanco c est quoi ces pires souvenirs il repond a chaque fois c est ses voyages en afrique du sud car c etait que des fils de fermiers et a chaque fois qu on aller labas on se fesait broyé il disait... Eben est un fils de fermier et c est une force de la nature comme chabal etc
More random testing…..
One head contact one no arm tackle two red cards. 99.99 % he come out tops. Best player in the world. All you England AB Aussies would like to see him retire.
From a Saffa, the biggest one was missed. When Eben was young Bismark Du Plessis almost bumped him off the field. Was in a Sharks vs Stormers game. Just to mention, he is currently the best lock in the world, by far actually....
Tadhg Beirne, Cameron Woki are better
@@symeremeyers4148 hahahahahahahhahaahaha you are delusional
@@symeremeyers4148 what have these players won?
@@rianpp3696 Woki: a 6N Grand Slam for France along with winning all 10 games in 2022, first side since the AB’s in 2013. A 13-game winning streak in all since July 2021. Then there’s Beirne who’s arguably the best player in the world over the last 2 yrs (the best lock/flanker hybrid in the world by far), the king of turnovers rn & not too shabby speed either if ya saw B.I. Lions v Japan last year. With the exception of a 6pt loss to France in Paris & an outplayed 1st test v AB‘s at Eden Park, he‘s helped Ireland to an unparalleled 11 wins in 12 months. Winning the triple crown in the 6N and a shock Steinlager Series win in July, it‘s without a doubt Ireland‘s greatest year ever. And 19 wins from their last 21 games as a whole. But for me the reason they‘re both one above Eben is the fact they both dealt with his pack when the time arrived and came through victorious. Yes they had home advantage but mastering the occasion is everything in my eyes..
I’m not sure which clip you’re referring to, I’ve only seen Etzebeth bump off Du Plessis, not the other way round, if you’ve got a link to the video you’re talking abt I’d like to see it
All that effort for 5 times.
Gotta say there was nothing wrong with that Hooper tackle.
Where do you see arms wrapped around? If that's a legal tackle then pigs can fly.
@@kyleseekoei7001 attempt to wrap was there, its not Hooper's fault Etzebeth jumped.
@@kinghenrob34 Exactly.
@@kyleseekoei7001 no arm tackles are legal in northern hemisphere. has always been
@@kinghenrob34 i dont see any jumping, and why would he jump into a tackle? thats illegal. his foot was on the ground when he got up ended
"smashed"
Snowflake Saffa fans gonna get angry at this one 😂
Gonna be the most capped Bok of all time. Crazy that someone with that much game time and on the ball time, gets smashed five times! He should be dropped. Also your definition of smashed is very liberal.
Wow, only 5 times in almost a 100 games? Incredible. That's about what the so called average NH player go through in a single game!!! Incredible strength 💪💪💪 ( from a Springbok Fan)
Always smashed by smaller players.
anyone can post clips pre 2019.... our former SA Junior players LoL
Could only get 5, huh? 😂
Must be one scary guy that you dedicated a video showing him get "smashed", 5times down but how many times did he leave the field injured from being smashed... Hilarious
You won A game...not the cup....The All blacks are going to take you out in the quarters
Saffas sour as always
Living rent free in your head
Love it when Eben gets smashed, dirty player!
TRY TO FIND five times Farrell used his arms in a tackle 🤣😂. PLAYER OF THE YEAR, Boks are THREE TIMES RWC'S. Next vid please, SOUR WILL ALWAYS BE SOUR but with 34 subscribers well 😅🤣😂🤣😂😅😂🤣😂🤣😅🤣🤣😂🤣🤣😂🤣😅🤣😂
It’s 36 subscribers actually
42 as we speak.
I get your butt hurt about content showing Etzebeth getting smashed
He is a rugby forward, je gets tackled every game .
I like Etzebeth but what's Farrell got to do with this ?
He isn't even involved with the tackles ?
Every rugby player no matter what size will get smashed at least a few times during their career
Chabal would eat him for breakfast, then probably boil his bones for lunch.................
Sebastian??!!😂 Bakkies Botha wouldn't even care about him, he was afraid of Jerry Collins for f's sake
love to see it
big unit hard ass player still think smith the SA skip was harder yet fair
should add that smith was a clean player hundred percenter did SA rugby proud
