I must be a bad pilot. I hardly use any rudder during approach, only just before touchdown. The guys in the video were properly shocked. Spoilers and flaps left extended when leaving the runway.
Probably two seats now available on the A380 in EK.
Sounds like you would be a good pilot. I use no rudder during approach except to de-crab just before touchdown.

Spoilers and flaps should have been just how they were. They had not “cleared” the runway, so no actions should have been taken by either pilot. PF disarming of the spoilers will trigger the PM to do that after landing flow.
