I think that I saw Carel Du Plessis in a Babaas shirt in the final clip at the end of the match. He was also a fantastic player in his time.

That Barbarians side was SICK. I don't know why we don't pick them like that anymore? Are the clubs too difficult, are we playing too much rugby? <br><br>Because damn, I would pay good money to see a modern version of that lineup. Imagine LBB, Kolbe, SFM, Will Jordan, Malcolm Marx, Dupont and the Willis brothers in the same team.
