Eben the best 4, Matfield the best 5 in rugby, since 1945
Here's a highlight reel of Mike Brown's debut. Definitely a different era, Boks would have had two possible reds for Juan and Schalk and possibly Bakkies too for a tip tackle on a guy in a scrum cap in the first ten minutes if it was modern day. Another high hit going in from Butch James at 3:25ish. Don't see the hit by Bakkies that Brown talks about though.
Some ignorant oaks are just not getting it regarding Bakkies.
Wee Rooitwit didn't like Bakkies because Bakkies was too rough.
Now we all should know Bakkies was the hard man in the Bok pack. But as you watch this video take not of the incredible mobility of Bakkies. He was the complete lock.
Wee matfiled was a lineouts forward and nothing more.
Also the oaks need to appreciate that Bakkies had a great personality.
Bakkies dealing with his captain.
