Carel du Plessis - The Prince of Wings
Просмотров 14 тыс.День назад
Like all true artists, Carel has a temperament which he sometimes has difficulty in controlling. His rugby started at Paarl Boys High and in the late 1970's he played in Craven Week as a stand-off half. It so happened that when he came to Stellenbosch he played at centre. We only found out after we had selected him at centre that he actually preferred the wing position. There was a bit of a squ...

Statistics alone have already assured Naas Botha of rugby immortality. It is a fact of life that new generations judge champions of the past solely on their legacy in record books and just as he was measured against the achievements of his predecessors, the match-winning qualities of future stars will be rated against the statistics Botha has left next to his name. Historians will see Botha as ...

During the isolation years there were very few black and coloured rugby players who got the opportunity to play first class rugby in South Africa. Rugby was segregated and there were 3 different governing bodies running the game in South Africa. But there were some players who were able to break through and even represent the Springboks during this period, most notably Errol Tobias, Avril Willi...

    Next year the came to Argentina, a more realistic fixture, with a propper team as opposed to the 1992 improvisation. They struggled to find they best shape tough dominating clearly only in the last test. The Tucuman match is often cited as a turning point as they faced an extremely hostile environment and a team more intrested on headbutting than scoring: ruclips.net/video/WbJDDSLqfEM/видео.html

    It's true that by 1992 isolation had taken an understandable toll on their game but had the ban been lifted on time for the 1987 RWC that would had been a different story, that backline with Gerber, Duplesiss, Reinah, Botha, etc at their prime was the one ahead of their time...

      Served the Sharks well for sure. Few players make an impact like him off the bench. When he would come on with 30 min left, he would cut through teams with force alone. These highlights miss most of his highlights as they didn't always result in a try. Will always be thought of fondly by Sharks fans, no doubt.
