"What do you with Rassie after this? He must help us with Bafana Bafana man," the Minister of Sports, Arts and Culture said.
"With Bafana Bafana, you need the mindset, you need the culture. Rugby's so structured. When I went to the changing room after England, it was with Princess Charlene.
"What happens in that changing room, that locker room... I realised how I wish I could get Bafana Bafana in the same room with the Boks.
"Just the spirit, the culture, the commitment to the sport and the love of sport."
Some of the followers who had come across the video were compelled to agree with the politician.
"Minister is expressing his sheer admiration for a world class team and coach. He is acknowledging greatness and building bridges. This can only be good for our country."
"And Rassie will do well there."
"Let's have Rainbow nation in the Bafana squad as well!"

"Forget about Bafana Bafana, useless models on fashion show."
"Bafana Bafana need more than just Rassie to fix that train smash."
"You need diversity in football to achieve success. It's being managed like a public sector at the moment."
