There has been a lot of controversy over the legality of the way Bakkies Botha cleans out opponents at the ruck and maul.
The way he does it, launching himself like a missile is actually illegal, as a player must be bound to a team-mate when cleaning out like this.
But there is no doubt that the single launching style of Botha is effective and creates some great hits which have been captured for prosterity on YouTube.
Watch the videos of Botha in action below.
