DSPN -RUGBY · The Greatest Rivalry Series is FAR From Over | Tony Johnson On All Blacks VICTORY At Ellis Park · 24 Aug 2026 podcast

For the rest of us, it can't come fast enough. voice-verified

Well joining us on the DSPN, commentator, journalist, all round good guy of the game, Nigel Yaldin. voice-verified

Nigel, this was a voice-verified

Test match right out of the annals of this great rivalry. voice-verified

But so often that's been the way in this great rivalry is that there've been flaws about the games and flashpoints. voice-verified

It just comes down to big, big moments. voice-verified

And we'll talk about some of those in just a moment. voice-verified

Before we go any further, Nigel, I'd really just like to take the hat off to Springbok fans and also to their coach Russian. voice-verified

I know we talked a lot about some of the stuff that was said during the week leading up to the test. voice-verified

But afterwards he was gracious. voice-verified

He took it on the voice-verified

Chin, there was no whining about the refereeing, there's no talk of conspiracies, and I'm talking about the fan base as well. voice-verified

Uh, talking to people who were there saying Springbok fans coming up to all black fans, shaking their hands, this is great, you know, bring on the second test, all that sort of thing. voice-verified

So just a a a a shout out to that because I think that underlines to me what makes this rivalry, just separates it from not just the rivalry. voice-verified

in rugby, but also all of sport, that there is this incredible respect there that just is generated and it's not just between the teams, between the fans, the coaches, everything. voice-verified

Yeah, very evident after the match. voice-verified

Let's get down to brass tacks now. voice-verified

First and foremost, how important voice-verified

And let's come at it from an all black perspective. voice-verified

How important to win that first test? voice-verified
