If the modern Boks were one man, they might just be him. Last autumn, Handre Pollard became the first fly-half to ever win two World Cups Finals and nailed himself in as arguably the Springboks’ greatest-ever 10….

Probably greatest 10 now. Hard to say as a kiwi but the guy is incredible
Anyone wanna buy me a springbok jersey.
I saw him the first time playing at Kearsny College for his school. He was the player of the Easter Tournament. I said to his coaches he is going to play "big rugby" one day. He is in the same class as other SA flyhalves like Naas Botha and Joël Stransky. Brilliant flyhalves. Henry Honiball was also a good flyhalf but a better all round player. (He tackled) 😂
Would love to see a video on south african schoolboy rugby. Idk why but that'd be insane
The ice man
I think Moodie could have some of the same energy
Well said. That man is a hero in his own right.
As a former prop. Scrums are labour of love as they are painful, especially when you get lifted.😂

As very much a rugby novice, even I've noticed but wait, this guy is really good in the way he reads the game and adapts, and especially sees angles. No doubt that's also one of the reasons why he's a good kicker and vice versa. I couldnt quite describe it but this video articulates it well.
Hamdre Pollard is HIM!!
Bulls supporter always thought he was good,then in 2019 thought dam,this guy wont let you down,now I think Pollard has that couple persent.Big sports people comes through when moment is big,this guy come through,where even the N.Z. could cope with moment.BMT.
He's poor for Tigers and I'm a Leicester lad
Absolute best rugby channel. Insightful, origional, watchable and just over the top brilliant. Keep at it!
Can you do a comparison between Pollard, Morne Steyn and Frans Steyn. Would be a great watch if possible to do. All 3 are arguably the greatest to have ever done it.

Great video. I remember watching pollard as a 17 yr old. He played with his brain even at that young age.
Thanks for that. My favourite player, by a country mile. Much like Dan Carter and Jonny Wilkinson, Pollard has enormous talent, yet remains very humble and quiet.
He turned the Bok tide in the last WC.
That 2012 final was one of my favorite rugby matches ever
Enough box kicks to kill Stuart barnes is genius

You my friend know rugby. He is our (South African) Dan Carter, but better at everything.

Brilliant, really enjoyed this
Safe to say he's the best knock out rugby fly half ever
Rugby analysis on the next level – always something to learn and appreciate from Squidge which enriches future games…wonderful 20 minutes…thank you
People also forget that Pollard had that injury before the World Cup and had more limited game time ahead of the tournament
South African sniper…our Pollie
Phenomenal player.
Can't stand him.

England fan
It's about time Handre gets the recognition thanx guys for a perfect video remember he also had 100% kicking rate in the final of 2019 he is my hero 100%South African proudly
Great video as always but don't start adding "here's why" routinely, for fear of sounding like a guardian article
He is the GOAT
Cannot argue with you 😂😂😂❤❤❤🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
Hy is DUIDELIK
Some players shine at club level . They are amazing to watch play in top 14 , urc , premier ship , and others struggle , but when the big moments come they say hold my beer it is my time to shine .
This is just the best Rugby show of all time. After playing for 18 years and being a lifelong Rugby fan, I can say this with confidence.
He is no special flyhaf he is a good kicker though
A little like Jacques Kallis maybe. A world beater who flies a little under the radar.
