Rugby.. raw emotion...family... a lot to learn from this story...much more respect for SA rugby and their people.

This still makes me cry, years later South Africa 🇿🇦 ❤

My feels, damn

Oh my word, what a story. It broke my heart.

Rassie : A HEART Of DAVID .

Rassie is special❤

The SPIRIT OF THE GREAT HEART! ❤️ 🇿🇦 unbuntu baba

Pretty sick that Erasmus can actually get emotional at the Mapimpi story. Good acting by Erasmus. Imagine not knowing your player well enough to know that his mum, dad and siblings had died. Absolutely disgusting for the disgusting Erasmus to try to gain sympathy when he’s such a heartless piece of shit

This is trully a special Bok team. Did it again in 2023 WC. Very proud of this team.

I still cry everytime i come back here i dont cry much but mapimpi is not just a SA icon but african

Good morning how how very very sad aim now 76 years of age but when this young come on to tv I look at him with tears in my eyes and said this man is a winnner And mr Erasmus what A strong man you are to acknowledge such strong ness in him May he walk always in the light of his career And May it go well with him

The boks will protects you bru

I cryed

My country makes me cry... For the worst reasons... For the best reasons... For moments like this... Ag Rassie... Ai... 🇿🇦

Came back to this because we won 2023 world cup les gooo

Rassie Erasmus THANKS FOR THE LOVE YOU GIVE TO MAPIMPI, every time I watch this clip, I get goose bumps. Thanks for the team and you Sir Salute, Sello Biko from Bela-Bela

And this is what makes a great coach. One that can mold world cup winning teams. Respect to you Rassie. A whole nation looking up to you.

Mapimpi has 60million family members! #StongerTogether!

Give Rassie the whole country to run. Then instead of "leaders" that look first and foremost to line their own pockets, you'd get someone that works for all his fellow countrymen/women.

This made me cry I'm from New Zealand but south Africa well done on the rugby world cup awesome stuff guys ❤❤❤❤❤❤

yoh, seeing Rassie's tears always gets my water works started

Every South African should watch this. Brought me to tears. Before anything, you can see how much Rassie cares for his players. Lets them take the spotlight when lifting the World Cup but his mission is clearly bigger than just winning trophies. What a warrior Mapimpi has become to live through such tragedy and become a Springbok.

This is why we can't beat South Africa at the moment. They're like Phar Lap, or Secretariat... Their hearts are three times the size of everyone else's.

I'm crying too Rassie

To see Rassie show so much emotion for another human is so moving...Rassie is really an extraordinary human being

we as south africans Makazole Mapimpi we are your family never forget that please we all are here for you all for one one for all god bless you your journey and story brought tears to my eyes. go bokke and thank you for everything that you have done for our great nation

But did the team do anything about the shirt? Like give him pictures of themselves?

Mapimpi's brothers are on the field with him every test.... and they all wear green and gold

Ummm now i olso craying we proud of u coush thank u Sir

Here after the 2023 RWC final. Still tears me up as if I’ve never watched this. What a coach. What a team. What a country. South Africa I love you all. 🇿🇦❤️🏆

Ooh Rassie....the love and compassion you have for the team man. Makazole, my brother, we love you. I love you. We are very proud of you. I know this would make more sense if it was said by your immediate family, your mom man, but I want to believe that they're watching over you from somewhere, their spirits somehow are watching over you. Well done team. Much love🇿🇦

Don't tell me sport doesn't mean something

Is it just me.. or does he kinda look like the guy from family guy

The tears everytimw I watch this video? Yoh😢 💔

Oh my word that just broke my heart💔💔💔💔 I hope he's found a family in his team.

Ffs😢

Coming back to this clip every now and again to remind myself that everyone in the world can love, respect and co-exist . Rassie you are so loved and respected for what you do and who you are.

😥🥺❤ Rassie loves all the team members very dearly. It's very evident when he talks about them❤

Wow it hurts he is brave

I love this couch . I love how he loves black players . He is a true champion congratulations SIR Rassie Erasmus . You are a true unifier of the Nation . We need more Africans like you

I tear up EVERYTIME I watch this.

Your ❤ goes out to this amazing young man your tears Mapimpi doesn't have to look far you are a great inspiration in his life bless you for sharing this I will always remember him in my prayers as well as you 🙏♥️

So Proud of The Boys....... This will always be a great Memory Viva South Africa.

❤❤❤❤❤❤ I cried

Oh waaaaaahhhh

The GREATEST RUGBY NATION in the world. Rassie is a beautiful soul. Mampimpi God bless you. R.I.P Kaunda

I wish every South African took the time to know the life story of one other person not from their neighbourhood, we might all come to appreciate each other regardless of colour or creed. This is what I hope it means that the Bokke give us hope. Its about time we all start working on community building in ernest. Deeply and well grounded South African National Pride, not just of a, once-in- four- years type.

Beautiful, heartfelt, sincerity is what I so L💓abt sports, it pulls us together and United.

where can i watch this?

This is very emotional 😭💔🥺🥺🥺🙈
