Come st…

What is not connecting with me re what SBW is saying and I could be wrong is that he appears to be suggesting that only his Pacific island brothers are into " off loading" As a small boy in Thames NZ I was coached you kicked the ball out as far down the line as possible employing a spiral kick from inside your 22 m zone and outside that zone you ran the ball, you drew your defender even half beat him amd OFF LOADED. you always backed up the ball carrier. You only kicked the ball as in a grubber kick when defences were tight. I read a paper that I inherited from my father that suggested Rugby instincts have to be learned before the age of 12 or 13 and those instincts are as described above you OFF LOAD, the purpose of the game is to score Tries. What is also very disconcerting is that the Fijians, the Tongans and not to the same extent but still bad the Samoans all play ridiculous head down bull at a gate Rugby when they play 15 man Rugby as the recent games have demonstrated. Why do they do that? Forward thinking coaches down the years were, are ruining Rugby and the Northern hemisphere and Boks are dominated by forward coaching, kicking for territory, head down dumb forwards who never , very rarely OFF LOAD,, cowardly up and unders, runing the ball from inside your 22m zone and kicking away possession outside the 22m it is crazy, One other thing that is also a disconnect is that when there is a turnover of possession it seems even the All Blacks first option is to kick the ball when it should be slung wide ASAP. My strongest suggestion is the SBW be employed to coach the Pacific island national 15 man sides they desperately need his expertise. Frankly when he came to Rugby it was a breath of fresh air INDEED.
goes to show you that one should never believe fake news about a people who are actually not what those snakes try to influence the rest into believing… Sonny Bill Shukr
Wonderful interview.
Fantastic interview guys very humble but also intelligent man
Beautiful soul. He’s a good person.
Cheers mills.
The only guy better than sbw size wise is inglis
Great rugby league player, great rugby Union player, NZ heavyweight boxing champion, an all-time great athlete
Was für ein Mann Respekt moslim stark
"walk the talk" LOL. poor old sonny dill should never be let near a microphone. His skill was on the pitch, not as an intelligent, articulate speaker. R.I.P brain.
Lovely interview.
Thanks Defenders
SBW reminds me of Donald Dump!
Always a classy man
SBW's true challenge was never on the pitch. It was against the Toll Poppy Syndrome.
Islam for those who cant think for themselves and they hate other religions and say if you dont convert you have to die.
Awesome interview….
Well said SBW! mad aroha and inspiration!!
Game breaker!
Beautiful person- I was lucky enough to have a photo with him. I’m a big fan👍😀
An individual talent yes I'd agree, but you people are kidding yourselves. SBW was the reason we drew against the Lions for a blatant shoulder into a Welsh head resulting in a red card and a drawn series. This being considered acceptable play has been an influence in the current drop in form of the whole AB franchise, since that series we have gone to the dogs, remember it's not the player in the team it's the team in the player, currently the AB's play like a group of individuals. Having a coach seriously out of his league and seriously out of touch with his team like Foster is" did not give Sony the right to play as an individual either!
I love the answer about the difference of culture between the two games. Some guy' "drip" gold and other Men drip Wisdom. Well said by a Legend of a Human.
SBW, G.O.A.T Footy Player and an even better Human Being. He has inspired hundred's of thousand's of young men world wide, showing them that they can make some thing out of nothing and more importantly that you can do it by holding onto your Morals and Principles. I honestly could go on praising this giant gentleman, but in the end All Praise belongs to Allah SWT. Much Love and Respect to Sonny Bill Williams.
