Springbok lock, Bakkies Botha, says he doesn’t feel any pain but he likes to see it in his opponent’s eyes.
“You don’t see pain on the body. You see the pain in the guy’s eyes. There are a lot of things happening on the field but you don’t see pain on the player’s body, you see it in his eyes. And when you see pain in the guys eyes it makes me happy,” Botha said at the Springbok hotel on Tuesday.
The fiery Springbok lock was commenting ahead of the Tri-Nations clash against the All Blacks in Hamilton on Saturday.
According to Botha they know what to expect from the All Blacks because they played them in the first two Tests of the Tri-Nations competition and they are approaching Saturday’s Test match as a final.

Interesting turn of phrase. I wondr if he's a quiet guy, who keeps to himself, doesn't really get out much and lives in a neighborhood where several household pets have gone missing?

Oh God. You can imagine him locked up in later life, for murdering people. 'I enjoy other people's pain'. That's just creepy![]()
A kick in this game is like a rather nasty alcoholic shooter, only as good as it's chaser...

You would hate to think what he would be doing if he wasn't good at Rugby

Hey I’d like to see Bakkies spleen…
And FURTHERMORE were the hell have you've been hiding Blackie...?
in a slightly sick sadistic way, i tend to agree with him, i dont like to see people seriously injured or anything like that, but the type of pain they get when you smash them in a tackle or something like that.
Im sure there are more people out there that enjoy it that just wont admit it, its basic primal instincts to prove that we are the dominant males.
Hardly, I sing when I'm losing. I just sat through an Ashes series that we lost. Not to mention a Test series againt South Afirca here that we lost.
I just direct the majority of my criticism at my own team. Except when it's not my team playing 10 man rugby![]()
Proteas did well in Perth to actually run the ball mind you
They were pretty quiet after full time weren't they![]()
