Dan Biggar is in the hot seat this week to reflect on some of the big games of his career, including the sensational match-up with England in 2015 where he kicked the winning goal, and his battles with South Africa in the past. He also reflects on a young Handre Pollard who's kicking ability punished Wales in a match in the 2015 Rugby World Cup.

I was a kid when SA was smashing Wales on a regular basis. They were almost considered a tier 2 rugby nation. But how they have improved their rugby to get back to their glory days has been amazing! The Welsh are a truly tough team to play now and feel like they are always just a great moment away from being at the top.

As a Bok fan, I have to say that Wales are a very tough opponent and have nothing but respect for the way they defend and stay in the fight to the bitter end. The 2015 qf and the 2019 semi could easily have gone Wales' way. I love that the game means as much to Wales as it does to South Africa. Respect and honour! 💯

Respect to Dan from a South African rugger lover....at the "coffin dodger" stage in life!! 😁😄As with any team, you guys have BIG names to emulate...many that have sadly moved on off this earthly plane. For instance in 1974 I was 14 years old, no telly in South Africa. It was a case of ears glued to a radio. I am talking about Willy John"s Lions side tour to South Africa. Man..oh man, Wales had some LEGENDS in that side, make no mistake.

@Skyscraper2015 Жыл бұрын

If you must know, a general stat of South African rugby is that they play defensive, and if the opportunities present themselves to go and get points but normally the aim of their game is to see the opposition in their game during the first half and then figure out weaknesses so that in the second half they are A for Away. That's why in the 2015 game they looked a little down and out. But came back to win the game.

It is always interesting, but ultimately futile to sit back after a sporting endeavour and decide what could have been done, should have been done differently, But in the heat of the moment on the pitch, field or in the arena, those actually in action, have to make split second decisions, not always the right one... Nevertheless credit must go to t e "Boys from The Valleys" for putting up agood fight...But to all potential opponents I say.." Pasop Kerel..Hier kom "Die BOKKE..."!!!
