Manning served in the British West Indies Regiment in France and the Middle East during World War I. In the early 1920s, he moved to New York, where he recorded music that combined jazz and calypso rhythms. His song "Lieutenant Julian" commemorated the 1929 transatlantic flight by Trinidadian Hubert Fauntleroy Julian. In 1934, he moved to England, where he gave performances in London.
His companion was Amy Ashwood Garvey, Marcus Garvey's first wife. She produced Brown Sugar, a jazz musical production at the Lafayette Theatre, which featured Manning and Fats Waller and his band. She and Manning opened the Florence Mills Social Club in London's Carnaby Street, which quickly became a gathering spot for the city's black intellectuals.
Manning returned to New York in 1941. That same year, he produced the only known calypso "soundies". film clips made for film jukeboxes located in restaurants and bars. They featured Manning and his ensemble, and Trinidadian dance legend Beryl McBurnie. In 1947, Manning wrote and directed Caribbean Carnival, a Broadway show produced by Adolph Thenstead, which was billed as the "First Calypso Musical Ever Presented". It was a lavish production, featuring 50 singers and dancers, among them New York-based calypsonian, the Duke of Iron, Trinidadian dancer, Pearl Primus, and Manning himself. Manning and Thenstead also founded a record company, Cyclone.

4th scrum 00:35:00 - AB Moody drops elbow and whole ABs front row collapses, no penalty for SA.
5th scrum 00:56:00 - looks good.
6th scrum 00:59:00 - AB Moody angles in (not scrumming straight), no penalty for SA.
2nd Half.
7th scrum 01:08:00 - AB Moody drops elbow to ground, stopping AB Aron Smith from feeding the ball into the scrum. No penalty to SA, Scrum Reset
AB Moody drops elbow again, No penalty to SA, reset again

8th scrum 01:17:00 - looks okay.
9th scrum 01:22:00 - Ball comes out of scrum behind AB Kieran's feet, SA 9 Faf has rights to go for ball, but Kieran pulls ball back into scrum and ref gives penalty to New Zealand.
10th scrum 01:30:00 - Scrum reset, AB 18 not supporting own weight and slips, No free kick/penalty to SA, scrum reset.
AB 17 angles in causing SA 18's head up, No penalty to SA, instead penalty to New Zealand.
11th scrum 1:44:00 - Finally ABs stop cheating at the scrum, and South Africa shows what they would have done to the New Zealand scrum most of the game if not for ref allowing ABs to cheat.
Usually when you drop your elbow to the ground in a scrum its, because you can't withstand the pressure coming from the opposition, dropping the elbow effectively stops the opposition from pushing you back, or makes it very very difficult.

First match of Rugby I ever watched in my life, I don't know the rules very much so it feels weird at times, but this is amazing! What an intense sport !

best possible matchup you could've started off with, no two better countries at Rugby when playing against eachother also, specifically in rwc.
I'm South African, the Springboks have their ups and downs, and save for the previous rwc, Springboks ALWAYS showed up when it's the world cup
