World Cup-winning Springbok coach Rassie Erasmus has taken to Twitter to share his love for one of rugby’s most popular youtubers.
Squidge Rugby, who has amassed 126k subscribers, has quickly gained a reputation for his fresh insight into a sport that often takes itself too seriously.
Although his content is funny, it also always remains insightful and well-informed.

Erasmus tweeted following his latest video: “Credit to this man! He understand the game and very very funny!!!”
Instead of playing, Squidge (AKA Robbie Owen) watches rugby almost obsessively, often watching nine or ten games in a single weekend – more during international windows.
A Patreon account has helped with money after he quit his job and it looks like this career is tailormade for a man of Owen’s background.
