South Africa legend Bakkies Botha played his final game as a professional rugby player on Saturday.
And he ended it in hilarious style as he was allowed take the conversion resulting from long-time teammate Victor Matfield's final minute try in the Barbarians' 49-31 defeat to Argentina at Twickenham.
The former Toulon lock was less hard man and more funnyman at the end of the game, though, as he channelled his inner Dan Biggar in taking the BaaBaa's final kick of the match.
His kicking technique may not be up to much but he's got his Biggar down to a tee.
