They have a phrase in France: No Scrum No Win. However, across the world what makes for a good scrum, and particularly what makes for the best scrum, looks different, team to team. Time for an investigation into whether or not the Springboks really do have the best scrum in the world, and perhaps more importantly, why.

The 208 Greatest Rugby Moments of 2023
Ah can't wait to see another European explaining why South Africa actually isn't good at anything really 😂 luckily it was saved, eventually
DO IT FOR THE CLICKS!!!!
@all rugby nerds, is the reverse hook banned nowadays? Wonder if there’s scope to use it (maybe only once) in a game
Teams have all sorts of sneaky plans to destabilize dominant scrums. I reckon the team with the best record on their own put in - when the other team has less opportunity to make a mess of things - probably has the best scrum
What i dislike about scrums: the penalty advantage whenever a team wins the ball. If the ball is available just play it. A full arm penalty is not needed simply because a team struggled to win
Great video, world rugby need to take notes. We don’t want our game developing into rugby league
best fly halfs videoo
And you were right. Today, Dupont is the most complete 9 ever
Once upon a time (when the sport was amateur) referees would award a penalty if the ball was not put in straight to the scrum. Hooker, so named for their primary skill of hooking the ball backwards towards their own team with their feet were the only player allowed to touch the ball initially. Modern scrummaging is a mockery. The referees ignore the rules by because they can’t be bothered to do their job. Suspect this is because many spectators couldn’t make sense of what was going on. So the analysis of scrummaging misses the core issue that no one scrummages properly these days.
Loved the rugby league comment 😂
If not the Boks, prove it by putting the so-called best scrum against them.
One of the big thing about scrums is the poor way tv covers them. Its drama if you zoom in but instead they zoom out. You miss the wrestle.
First minute: It's South Africa. Fifteenth minute: It's probably South Africa. Everything in between: Pure joy. Missed you Squidge.
It’s the springboks can’t believe you didn’t mention them! 😂
Rubbish ABs picked both SA scrums up during WC final with 1 man down ??
This past weekend the Boks were practically walking forward against Wales in the scrums and they were penalized a few times. 🤷♂️
1. NZ 2. NZ with Jordie on the blindside 3. Ireland, France or maybe South Africa
Such a lovely video
Great video guys - really enjoyed that 🤙
But then again....... We do have the best scrum love Saffa
all blacks then probably SA
All Blacks + Jordie packing down on the blindside then probably SA.
Great analysis as always.
LOL! 15 against 14 in a world cup final with a back in the forwards and NZ still had the best scrum!
1. South Africa 2. South Africa 3 Ireland.
Depends what the objective is, tire out the opposition aerobically by speeding up the game or tire out the forwards anaerobicaly by contending the scrum.
Is this even a question?
I really thought I was a patreon member where I would see my name in the credits. Every episode I look for my name like a fool and I don't see it. HAHA. Never thought it would be so important to me but apparently it hacks into some part of the brain.
Springboks
Let's put it like this....if you needed ONE scrum to save the entire world, who would you pick for it?
NZ
The Stormers have the best scrum…..
great video
Great video as always! It would be great to see scrum-halves actually be required to throw the ball into the middle of the scrum and not straight under their own players feet. That would bring a whole new element into the modern scrum.
Yes but if the druuer scrummed against the Boks would they win?
Fiji Drua would struggle against any South African franchise team. Their technique is useful in Super Rugby. The Springboks would annihilate them. Test rugby is a different beast
Nice...!
I haven't watched the video yet, I probably know how he could potentially argue against the boks so i will come back if my mind is changed 😂 But it has to be the springboks i promise you it is the boks, modern non South African and mainly European refs do not blow the scrums correctly instead they let scrums play out because the ball is available. When they should be giving penalties. Infact some refs i have seen literally only look too see if the ball is available, their eyes dont even look at the scrum they only look at the back of the scrum. Ive seen and can remember plenty of occasions springboks should have had penalties but due to the ball being available they didn't get the penalty so that can affect stats
Great, another awful video. Zero knowledge of the sport you've never played
You don't have to watch them
@@SquidgeRugby You don't have to upload them
Ive noticed refs really dont give south african teams as many oens when they are marching opposition scrums backwards. Ckearly messaging from world rugby.
Could you do a how Glasgow won the URC video??
Why did you even need to make a video asking this question ??? The boks scrum has dominated since the beginning of time … it’s not even a contest . End of … 4 world cups , more coming . 🏆🏆🏆🏆
I played for Canada ..fact is all our best athletes play hockey when young then switch to rugby or other sports at 18 years old..
This channel and these guys are awesome!!!
Absolutely love your videos!
DRUA only have the best scrum because they dont play the boks
Thank you! You really should have a newspaper column.
Great video but I'm really not a ran of the speed up voiceover.
Everybody knows England has the best scrum!
I was expecting England women’s team tbf
Well if you think they can beat the Springboks then maybe they should be there...
we also have to look at the opponents faced. Fiji don't play tier 1 nations always. the boks dominates every team in the scrum doesn't matter the previous stats. we as south africans don't care what you did to your opponent, we want to destroy you. we see you as a man and ourselves as superior beings who defies all logic and sense. we make you fear us as we live in a dangerous country, your soyboys cant harm us more than ordinary life harms us. were just built different.
funny but the boks would destroy every team in the scrum. there's levels to this.
I wish Ray Lewis was still active to welcome LRS to the NFL.
