 Alright everybody, what is going on? Welcome back to another video. Today's video, we're going off topic, but not really, because my YouTube channel started about the sport. And that's Rugby. You guys know that? I know that. And you know what? The All Blacks just got beaten. The New Zealand All Blacks, the mighty All Blacks. You might have heard about them, you might not have, you probably should. They are basically the national team of New Zealand. Rugby is the national sport, and the All Blacks are the national team of that sport. And every single little boy and girl in New Zealand grows up wanting to be an All Black. So with that said, I did the exact same. I'm in Australia now, I'm focusing on another sport, but that doesn't mean that I don't still like to follow the All Blacks at least. And the reality is that they got beaten on the weekend by South Africa. So the All Blacks play in a 14 competition each year. It's a Southern Hemisphere type competition. You've got South Africa, Australia, New Zealand and Argentina. And they play in what's called the Rugby Championship. South Africa beat the All Blacks on the weekend, and we're going to watch the highlights. So let's do that. Let's see what happens. Oh no, Kieran Reid, the captain. Let's see what he had to say after the test. Let's look at highlights first. Wellington, New Zealand. True, they fucking beat them at home. Oh no. The Katen, Wellington, New Zealand. See that's a massive stadium for New Zealand and I think it holds like, shit, how much does it hold? Like 40,000? Maybe 45,000? So that kind of stadium in America would be probably the same size in width, but it would just go up like two more levels, I'd say. For the seventh time, New Zealand undefeated against South Africa in the previous six encounters here. The only wins that the Springboks have got at the stadium were at Rugby World Cup in 2011, when they defeated feature goals at the stadium. You want to take those guys on, man? Do you? All right, who we got? Owen Franks, Sam Whitelock, Scott Barrett, Liam Squire, Sam Cain, Kieran Reid, Aaron Smith, Bowdoin Barrett, Rico Arning, Ryan Crotty, Antoine Lennart Brown, Ben Smith, Geordie Barrett, and I'm not even going to try and name the South African team because I don't know them now. I know it's been too long, but I know New Zealand. I honestly think Cody Taylor at Hooker for New Zealand could be a running back, no shit. He's got like a 4-6-40. Well maybe 4-5. There's three brothers in the All Blacks. Can you believe that? These three boys grew up together, wishing they could play for the All Blacks, and all three have actually made the team. You've got Scott Barrett at Lock, you've got Bowdoin Barrett, the best number 10 in the game, and probably the All Blacks best player at the moment in first five, and you've got the other brother Geordie Barrett at 15, which is Fallback, which is the position that I like to play at the back of the pack, slicing through, seeing gaps, kicking the ball, returning punts, which is one of my favourite things to do. We don't call it a punt return, we call it a counter-attack. The team will punt the ball down the field, you'll grab it as the Fallback, you've got your two wingers, or your two wide receivers, and you three will basically run up the field and try and create something. It's a great feeling, man, it really is. Anyway, let's skip this. There we go. Let's have a look. Let's go. Read at the top. Off to Smith. Oh, the little pop pass from Barrett. Oh, no, what are you doing? Oh, look at that! See, these are passes, but even like in this first phase of play that I've seen, there's like three passes that just got given that you'd think, fuck, how did that stick? How did they actually catch that? And that's the thing about the All Blacks. There's always someone in support. In the game of rugby, you can only pass the ball backwards, right? And when you fall over and when you're tackled, the play doesn't stop. So you've always got to have people around you, your team behind you, basically in a bit of a wedge formation. So if you go to ground, the tackle's made, the defence is here, your offence is here, you're in a bit of a wedge because you can only pass the ball backwards. So that person at the back of the ruck either has to pass the ball right or left, but it has to go backwards, in which case your players waiting for that pass have to be behind you in a bit of a formation like this. So then you'll start passing it out, passing it out, passing it out, or you'll start passing it out, then you'll have another guy coming in on this angle, coming back towards the play, and you'll open gaps, you'll spy holes, things happen, but you need those passes to stick. You know what I mean? The little passes, the little pop balls, the little behind the back passes, they open up the game, but if you drop the ball, it's not worth it. But the All Blacks man, they just seem to just catch it somehow. Beautiful pop pass. Look, that's a little one. That pass could have been dropped. And this one... That was two brothers, that was number 10 to number 15. Oh, see? See that? That was number two. He's a hooker. That's like an offensive lineman in the game of football, doing like an awesome no-look pass. And I bet you he's going to run past this guy and keep up with him. And you know, you've got pace, you've got skill all over the park, man. All over the park, doesn't matter what position. Yeah, Smith! The two Smiths! So watch that again. Yeah! See look, oh yeah. Okay, this is the half back, all right? Number nine, here. Smith passes it backwards slightly. It's on such a nice line that this number two, Cody Taylor, is going to run onto it. He's going to grab the ball at pace and in the same motion just do this nice little flip pass. He knows someone's outside of him, right? He knows that Ben Smith. Ben Smith's right here. He's probably about five meters behind him right now, but he knows. He's got the pace. He just holds it up a little. Oh my god, look at that pass. That's beautiful. Now, let's see what Aaron Smith does. He's just passed the ball, right? He's passed the ball. He knows something's about to happen. He's starting to run through, right? This number nine. He's starting to run through. He knows. He knows now. He's like, sweet, that pass has been made. Ben Smith has got it. He's about to run down the sideline. I've got to get there in support for that backwards pass, right? So that's what he does. He starts sprinting. Look at him. Number nine. Number nine. He's through. He knows what's about to happen. He knows he's that man that needs to be in place to receive that pass, that lateral pass, so that he can score. And he's going to position himself perfectly to receive that pass and score. See? He actually slowed down. He slowed down a little bit. Watch this. He's in front of him at the moment. He's slowed down right now. He's going to slow down a couple of paces just to let Ben Smith get in front of him so he can receive that ball backwards. See? Boom. What a pass. What a fucking pass. That's positional play. See? Aaron Smith, he's coming through. He holds it back a little bit, gets the perfect pass. This guy's quit. He is quit, man. There's a lot of fast South Africans, believe it or not. They're quit. See, look at this. It's draw and pass, draw and pass, draw and pass, draw and pass. One, okay. He's drawing this man, pass. This one, drawing this man, pass. And the guy on the wing or your wide receiver is open. That's what you want. Ah, good. Fucking good shit. Oh, look at this. Look at this. This is going to be great. This is going to be an awesome counter attack. Okay. Ah, look at that chase down by number 10, man. Bowdoin Barrett, best player in the world, right? He just made that tri-saving tackle. Watch this. Watch this. He's right here. He's right here. He's at a standing start. Okay? He's at a standing start. He's got to turn around and go. This winger is already on the burst. Okay, look at him. Look at him. He's got the ball now. This is one of the fastest players in the field. But Bowdoin Barrett is even faster. Watch this. Yes! Just as he kicked the ball. So he fucked up the kick. And what's going to happen now in the game of rugby, if the ball goes out, it's the opposition's ball at the point that it went out. But if the team that gets the ball doesn't want to wait and they see an opportunity, they can actually take what's called a quick throw, which means it's a line-out. It's a normal line-out, although the forwards aren't placed in their line. They can just be anywhere. So basically, what's happened here, the brother of Bowdoin Barrett who just made that tackle has grabbed the ball. He's seen, alright, South Africa's not down here yet. We've got some space. What do I want to do? Should I pass it? Should we try a counter-attack? And it looks as if that's exactly what's going to happen. So let's see. He's going to fire off a massive pass into the centre of the field and the All Blacks are going to try and create something on the counter-attack. Let's see what happens. Bang! Look at that! All Blacks and LaRue is in. Oh, shit! And that is the exact reason why you wouldn't want to do that. Don't listen to me, guys. Don't fucking listen to me, man. That's a shocker. What a shocker! Guys, guys, guys. The All Blacks don't do that. See, that's a normal line-out. That is a normal line-out, okay? It's a brilliant response from South Africa. See, the two teams, basically... Well, I don't know exactly why South Africa has the ball. It's probably because of the fact that they got a penalty, which means that they can then kick the ball out and retain the ball. If it's in general play and they kick the ball out, it goes to the opposition. But if they get a penalty, they can opt to kick for goal, or they can opt to have a scrum, or they can opt to kick for the sideline and get their own line-out, which is probably what they've done. So here, they're five metres out. That little checkered white line is the five metre line, and he's about to throw it in, and South Africa may convert a try. Let's see. See, now, this is a maul. This is a maul, all right? The ball was off the ground, which means that both teams can continue to push. Once it hits the ground, it stays there, and the ball gets recycled. Marshawn Lynch, in the game of football, did this exact thing. He got the ball as a running back, he ran into the pack, his players got behind him, and pushed him, pushed him, pushed him over the line, which is exactly what could happen here, effectively. But I feel like the ball is going to come out the back, and it's going to be spun out wide, and the backs are going to try and score. Let's see. Come on, all blacks! Push him! Push him back! Push him back! Don't let him in. Come on, boys! See, the ball was there at the back. Oh, for fuck's sake! See? Marshawn Lynch. Boom, right there. Right? Good stuff, boys. Good stuff. See, and the thing is, is that the all blacks, I mean, obviously someone could just, in the middle of that, someone could just pull the players down, and they'd all collapse to the ground, and then it couldn't be a try. But the thing is, if the all blacks had have done that, it's a penalty. So, you know, the refs know, okay, the offensive team want to keep the ball up, the defensive team want to bring the ball down. And if it's so obvious that the defensive team have just pulled them down, without actually trying to push, then it's a penalty. And because of the fact that it's so close to the try line, it's only five metres out, that's quite possibly a penalty try, which is the worst thing you can give in the game of football, in the game of rugby. The worst. A penalty try is terrible, you know? Because if you didn't do that, that action that causes the penalty, they may not have scored. But sometimes you're just like, it's a brain snap, you just do it. Anyways, it looks as if, the all blacks know what they're doing, they had to keep it up, but they didn't have the strength to push them back, and South Africa scored. No wonder they're happy. Two metres out, spin it, and again, oh, what a pass. What a pass, good hands, boys. Nice pass, man. See, they saw that they had three on two. Draw on pass, draw on pass, and he's in. Just like the South Africans did. But the passes had to be absolutely pinpoint and perfect and done so quickly, or else the opposition would have tapped the ball down. So watch this. He grabbed it, literally, in half a second, he has to let it go, which he does. And this one. He's just grabbed that. He hasn't even looked where he needs to pass it, and he's going to fling it out. Like, this pass is crucial. If it is stuffed up, there's no try. If it's good, there's a try. And lo and behold, it's good. And it's right at the end of the half, too. Rugby has 40-minute halves, 37 minutes 52, that's right at the end of the half, which means that the South African defence would be tired. And actually looking at this, the 20th phase, which means that the All Blacks have retained the ball for 20 tackles, which means that South Africa have probably been defending for like five minutes straight, or probably three or four minutes straight, which is... It is so tiring. It is unbelievably tiring. The cardio-vascular ability of these players is incredible. And same in football, but rugby, I mean, it doesn't stop. The play doesn't stop. So, you know. I'm not surprised that the All Blacks scored then, because South Africa would have been completely out on their feet. Yeah, this guy, Rico Uane, he's a star. I think he scored like 17 tries in like 17 games or something. He's definitely one of the new breed in the All Blacks wingers. Great player, great fucking awesome player. He's probably got like a... I don't know, four, four, three, four, three, five, fourty, maybe? Oh no! Alright, here's the penalty. He's taken it quickly. See, look, that's the other option. Where the ref is, that's where the penalty was called, the opposition. The South African did something wrong. I don't even know what they did. Basically this is the half back, Aaron Smith, the one that you always see at the back of the ruck, hitting that ball and then passing it out. So he has decided to take a quick penalty. So you've either got the option of, you know, it's in your hands. You can either take a scrum at that point. The two teams come in like this and then the ball's recycled. You can either take a kick out, like I said, get a line out. You can take a kick for gold, but obviously this is probably about 60 metres out, so it's too far. Or if you see the opposition not having been set and they're sort of everywhere and you see an opportunity, so obviously sometimes this is the wrong decision to make, but obviously, you know, we'll see what happens here. He's taken a quick tap, which means that he can just go. The ref calls the penalty, sweet. He makes the mark. He's like, yep, okay, you can do what you want from this point. Aaron Smith has seen an opportunity in front of him. I don't even know what he's seen, but he thinks that he can make something of it and we are about to see what he does. Let's see. Breaks the tackle, spins it, draw and pass, and another one. Oh! I knew it. I knew it, man. I fucking did. Every time I call the All Blacks, every time I say the All Blacks is about to do something good, they go and make a stupid pass and get an interception. This is the equivalent of a pick six. No shit. Absolutely the equivalent of a pick six. Watch this. Watch this. Pick six straight to the house. Straight to the house. Oh, yeah, that's a nice interception, man. He's got a pace, too. Pick six, or pick five. Good stuff, mate. You deserve it. See, and the All Blacks come back here. We've got 30 minutes to go, so let's see what we're made of. Let's see what we can do. Bring it back, boys. See, and that's the replacement half back. Number 21, this must be a sub, so number nine has gone off. He's been replaced by his substitution. So this guy will play the last 30 minutes of the game. Which keeps you fresh and, you know, fresh legs on the field and the opposition is tired as a game breaker. It truly is. Anyway, we've got one pass here and another one, no. How did he pick that up? That was a terrible pass. Look at this. See, we have to ground the ball, right? In the game of football, he could have been going for the line and he could have literally just touched that pile on. Is that right? And that would have been a touchdown. But we need to stay inside and actually not touch the pile. I think if we touch the pile on, it's actually counted as out, believe it or not. So, um, yeah. Boom. Slams it down, try. He's got two tries now. Pass. No, you can't score. Oh, fuck. It's a nice step. It's a very nice step, but we had enough defenders there to cover that that shouldn't have been a try. No way. Fuck, man. Let's have a look at that step. This step. See, that's why it worked. He literally has caught the ball in the air. The first step he makes after catching that ball is a bang off the left, a big bang off the left. And he gets inside this number 10, Bowden Barrett, who's coming across this guy right here, gets inside him, gets tackled over the line, but he still scores it. Let's have a look at that bang off the left again. Well done. Well done. He stokes. So, here we go. Another mall. See, we did the exact same thing that the South Africans did in the last thing. Last one. From the other side of the field. Well done, boys. Well done. Draw and pass. Oh! Oh, man. Draw and pass. Oh! Oh! Oh, he dropped it. See, this is the penalty. Offside penalty. He's going to take the kick, which is worth three points. No, he's not. They're going to go for the try. And they score. And they got it. And that's the final score. 34-36. Which means they must have missed the kick, and it's a really close kick, so... Brav, he misses this kick to equal it. Are you kidding me, man? Oh, my God. Two out of five. He gets two out of six for the day. That's not good, man. What's the post? Come on, boys. Get a try. Come on. I can try. You're joking me, man. And this is an overtime, too. Look, 80 minutes gone. Two minutes 49 in overtime. And the fact that we're in the 17th phase, which means we've recycled it for 17 phases, South Africans are just holding on. Just holding on on the defense. Waiting for us to make a mistake so that the game can be called over. And it looks as if we just made a mistake. Fuck. But I'll run through this with you, man. Watch this. Watch this. This pass... This guy drops it, right? But if he was to hold it... Oh, no, he tries to step inside. He should have just given the pass. So he tries to step inside this guy and then give the pass, and what happens? The guy knocks it out of his hand. See, look, if he had have passed that ball out to this number 14, he's got a clear run for the line, and that would have been a game-winning try. But we made a mistake. Great defense by South Africa. Great defense. Absolutely epic, man. That is epic. The first time I've ever won at Westpac Stadium. But I gotta say, man, New Zealand, you did it to yourself, bruh. You know, a couple of interceptions there that led to tries. Well done, South Africa. See, that's the thing. You need certain things in the game, certain moments in the game to go your way. And I guess South Africa did. Well done, guys. Well done. Fuck, man. All right. Well, I wanna hear our captain talk about the game. And that'll be the last clip we watch. Here he is. Karen Reid. What a legend. Hey, man, it's like 6-5. He's fucking huge. It's a quiet locker room. He said, if you didn't hear that, he said, we conceded 36 points, and it's hard to win when you do that. And that's true. Like, the All Blacks would never, really, usually concede that many points. But, I mean, you saw a couple of interceptions. That's why. Yeah, they defended hard. They let go forward, and they just, you know, played off that really well. So, that's something we tried to stop. Because of that building phase, there wasn't a lot of lead in them off the hook, and we had chances. So, yeah, those ones. It was a great test match. Bloody tough, and tonight we just came out the long side. Boys are gutted and rightly so. You know, the best thing is that we can't dwell on this for too long. Still had a great opportunity to go overseas to finish the regular championship, you know, as strong as we can. Which is all on the line. So, there's lessons in the game. We'll certainly take care of it. I hope you get credit for the screen box there. They came out with a great game plan. I think they're part of it. They'll probably last few games. We've been scoring those drives that wide, and, you know, they've bummed with us into touch. So, you know, their mindset was outstanding. They, you know, set them to their toes. Cool, man. All right, guys, so that is my analysis and my reaction to Rugby Day. But it does happen. So, guys, if you did enjoy or you want to see more, you know, rugby style videos, this was my full analysis of this whole thing. I knew going into this reaction I wanted to stop the play when I saw something that I wanted to explain. So, I hope you guys enjoyed. And I'll see you in the next one. If you have enjoyed this, if you have liked it, please press like. If you want to subscribe and you haven't, please do. We're mixing the sport of rugby and American football right now.
