@Top100Rick True, but to me that feels like more of the same, but over multiple videos / rounds 😅

@TheHalfTimeTalk Yeah but a consistent league makes it different

A Pro Golf Tour…for Content Creators? Are you interested in this? Is this doomed to fail? The big news in the social media world is Grant Horvat and the Bryan Bros forming a golf tour for social media influencers. Before you write it off, keep in mind these guys have MILLIONS of followers. Generate millions of views. Have more fans than your average PGA Tour player. The winner will get a million bucks. I’m not saying it’s a success yet. But imagine if ten years ago I told you that people would watch normal great players golf. Just dudes. For thousands of hours. And that these dudes would make more than many PGA Tour players. You never would have believed it.

@YGTRory @adst0403 The amount of "YouTube Majors" is so tiring - all the same thing!!

@adst0403 I’m not complaining or being bitter. I’m calling a spade a spade. They’re making the same content and wrapping it up as something new. Just pointing that out. 🙂👍

Just to be clear then, the same people will film golf content with the same people they always film with, call it something different, but it will be the same, but different? 🫠

@SaffaStrachan So good. Even in Adelaide support was very Aus heavy (jeers towards to other teams). Long overdue celebration of golf is exactly what this 🙌 on a side note, I never thought the LIV team aspect would catch on - I'm properly invested now.

In most team events like the Ryder Cup, support is polarirising. But in #LIVGolfSouthAfrica Bryson, Rahm, Southern Guards - everyone gets a cheer. It's a celebration of quality golf on the African continent.

@Brendennel Well said. Recency bias is also a thief of joy.

Why are we so intent on saying something or someone is the best ever? Can't we just enjoy the brilliance, the moment and the fact that we were entertained? The "best ever" Six Nations, the "GOAT" It is all so tiresome and we trip over ourselves to try and post that post. When all we should say is we were entertained. A great game played by great players that wouldn't give up. Next week there may be another, or next month or next year. But does it matter? For me, watched a lot of rugby and a lot of players in my time. I can't stand these constant calls to say something is the best ever. I love the sport, appreciate the games, and applaud great rugby. The Six Nations was great, so was the Rugby Champs. They don't have to compete. Same with players. We can appreciate PSDT, Dupont, Bielle-Biarrey, Itoje, Doris, Savea, Sacha, etc. We can enjoy their brilliance in a team sport. And we can be satisfied without saying it/they are the best ever.

@SharksRugby Doesn't get better 🔥

Truly one for the history books 📖 What iconic moment do you want to see next?

@followthebounce Surely we're banned from referencing the '99 CWC for at least another 130 years 😅

What’s happening with the Winter Olympics coverage? Is this a taste of things to come in the Canal+ era of SuperSport?

@OMG_ITS_NDABA So good 😂

I don't know if people (up North) know this but you're allowed to go backwards in the scrums. The penalties aren't for being dominated. They're for illegal scrummaging, particularly collapsed scrums. You can get pushed 50 meters by a dominant scrum and not get penalized.

@FanaticBears @rugby_ap Yeah Schalk actually was complimentary of him and the impact he has. His point was actually just that he couldn't relate to the new Gen.

@rugby_ap Exactly, not seen anyone demanding that the 2007 SA backrowers do actually hit the gym and train for year to take him on. People have seen 1 line and jumped on it. Can’t imagine Pollock cares 1 bit.

So much pearl clutching about Schalk joking that Pollock is a TikTok dancer. “The sport needs characters [but you’re not allowed to not like them]!”

@CaptSpringbok @dmurray59 here's the full clip.

Here’s the entire conversation. Not just a snippet to create a narrative for clicks!

@dmurray59 @FloRugby This was only a snippet from his full take on Pollock. He said he's a great player, has a massive impact. But he said it's a different generation, something he can't relate to. Watch the full clip for full context, is actually quite a humorous comment in it's totality.

@FloRugby Disappointed in Schalk. This lacks any insight at all and certainly is an insulting view of a very talented rugby player

Safe to say Springbok legend Schalk Burger is not the biggest fan of England Rugby breakthrough star Henry Pollock 👀 #Springboks #EnglandRugby

Is there any other player with as remarkable record of injuries for club games but fit for international games as Pieter-Steph du Toit? Over last two and a bit years he has played 27 Springbok games but only 10 for Toyota. Only played 19 games his last 3 seasons at Stormers too.

@scrumming_ten I honestly think the only hater is that ginger guy 😅

Imagine how the Sacha haters will combust on the day he becomes Springbok captain

@rugby_ap I think @jimhamilton4 is behind the rebrand, very impressive 👏

Saracens’ social media this season has been exceptional. Leaning in to being the bad guys whilst also tethering it to a wider (very slick) brand repositioning. Whoever’s doing the marketing - well done.

@FredDJournalism Every single time! Makes boring kick-fests even seem exciting. The intensity in a game of rugby is unparalleled.

Might not be a popular comment but I have to say whenever I watch football, I’m reminded just what a brilliant game rugby is.

@FrontRowRugbyXV Without a doubt!

Many still regard this as the greatest ever Springbok performance.

@Kookie_Kuhle Not spoken about enough! 🔥

The cross kick Sacha kicked to Kolbe for the Moodie’s disallowed try is one of the most ridiculous things I’ve seen live!

@ChalynRugby Such an immense response from the Durban crowd spoke volumes of how elite a performance it was.

@ChalynRugby I was in Durban in 09 for that Morne game. The stadium started signing "Morne Morne Morne Morne" (like Ole Ole) - so why this is a big deal is he was a Bulls player, playing in Durban, and Bulls were enemy no. 1 in Durban ever since the 07 Super Rugby final. So for him to get...

#Opinion Stats aside, Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu’s display against Argentina in 2025 wasn’t the greatest individual performance by a Springbok 10. That honour still belongs to Morne Steyn. Sacha was outstanding last night, but I’ve seen many calling it the greatest ever performance by a Springbok 10. People forget quickly. In 2009 Morne Steyn single-handedly beat the All Blacks, scoring all 31 points. That win marked the first time South Africa had beaten New Zealand on consecutive weekends since 1976. That should go down as one of the greatest performances ever, in any position. Many have done it in blowouts like last night, but only a few have managed it in a tight game. The most points by a Springbok and as a percentage of the total score. 37- Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu Vs Argentina , Kings Park Stadium, Durban (55.2%) 35- Percy Montgomery. Vs Namibia, Newlands Stadium, Cape Town (33.3%) 34- Jannie de Beer vs England, Stade de France, Saint-Denis (77.4%) 31 - Percy Montgomery vs Wales, Loftus Versfeld Stadium, Pretoria (32%) 31 - Handré Pollard vs Argentina, Estadio Padre Ernesto Martearena, Salta (72.1%) 31 -Morné Steyn vs New Zealand, Kings Park Stadium, Durban (100%) #Springboks #LosPumas #RSAvARG #Rugby 🇿🇦🇦🇷

@vuyozangqa This could be a world #9 poll and your comment still applies! No one close.
