Bok lock Botha loses the plot in New Zealand
See Bakkies Botha’s moment of madness at Eden Park as he got up close and personal with New Zealand scrumhalf Jimmy Cowan. Imagine having this big guy chasing after you?

THAT makes me SICK!
This man is supposed to be part of a team that is representing South Africa to the world – and look at him…stupid neanderthal!!! Just because he was provoked he acts like a child! Rugby is a GAME…he shouldn’t be playing if he can’t have pride in his country, for this game and for himself!
Rather leave the “justice” to the ref…now he’s just made himself look like an idiot!
Ja, the big guy needs to keep things in check. And the poor Kiwi who had Bakkies on top of him . . . eish, the stuff of nightmares.
Horrific! What an outrage! I find his reaction childish and he should definitely not be allowed to play for South Africa – definitely not mentorship material for upcoming rugby players, especially those still in school!
He’s a top player, but clearly the headbutt is a step too far . . . again. A player of his quality shouldn’t get into stuff like that.
Totally agree!
wonder if he will try hold him back again!
Heard Jake White speaking on East Coast Radio. He reckons the All Blacks probably targeted Bakkies coming back from a suspension. Thought they could get him to crack.
Bakkies always cracks! he definitely needs to attend some anger management courses!
could teach those football wets a thing or two about pain though!!!
Easy on the wets hey. Some of us Ridge folk are soccer players. Ha ha. The diving in the World Cup was a disgrace.
