New Zealand and South Africa gave us a great finale to the Rugby Championship this weekend when the Springboks nipped the All Blacks to the post with a final second penalty. This week we rewind to another classic between the sides back in the 2015 Rugby World Cup when it was an absolutely incredible New Zealand side who took the spoils in a game that went right down to the hooter.

    Who’s here in 2023 waiting for the All Blacks vs Springboks finals next week?
  • Anyone else getting sick of negative comments when a close game goes to an opposition team? It's always the referees fault. Always 16 players vs 15 players. As a South African, it saddens me that so few Saffers will accept defeat from a more dominant side. There is absolutely NO Shame in losing to the All Blacks. I am stoked we won as many world cup titles, with fewer tournaments entered. I am stoked we pulled off a BI Lions tour win, and stoked we beat the ABS this past weekend. But seriously.... the negative comments when we lose is just ridiculous now!

    As a Kiwi, I always hold my breath when we play the boks... made love for them
  • The Final we never got to see😥 But who ever won this game was going to win the world cup
  • This game displayed 9 of the best rugby players since 2000: two best scrumhalves (Du Preez and Smith) and the best winger (Habana), Flankers (McCaw, Burger and Kaino), flyhalf (Carter) and center combination (Nonu/Smith), an epic test match. Carter was on another level, once in century allround flyhalf talent- literally had no weaknesses. Kicked like a mule and could slice open a defence with ease- no one comes even close: perhaps Johnny Wilkinson in 2003? This ABs teams is the GOAT in my view.
  • @ruben_m8907
    I mean... These two teams have both won 2 of the last 4 world cups... That's an epic rivalry
  • @guyinthai
    These camera angles for the kicks at goal are so good, sometimes it really frustrates me how a tv crew can't even quickly line up a cameraman behind the kicker if they dont have shots like these
  • What a game, I always consider this the real final of that tournament, once we had beaten SA, it was going to be a walk over on Australia
  • The Brazil 🇧🇷 argentina 🇦🇷 rugby version An Epic rivalry always to enjoy. Thanks for the upload
  • @Kariraa
    Everyone says how amazing that AB side was - and it is. One of the best. But that SA side was incredible as well!
  • @alpozongo1485

  • @reganbrandon04
    Mad respect to this NZ outfit. Arguably the greatest 15 of all time.
  • @guyinthai
    11:25 - "Excuse me ref" 😂😂 even in play showing respect to the ref
  • @pita3908
    you get your monies worth when you watch these 2 nations play against each other! they have so much respect for each other.
  • @kanna1984
    Fun Fact. Of the 23 Springboks in the matchday squad, 8 won 2 RWC's and 3 won 1 RWC. And don't forget Siya Kolisi, who didnt play in this match but went on to captain the team to 2 RWC's.
