That just means your imagination is shit. You can do better. Whenever anyone says they "can't imagine", they're saying they don't have a working brain. We can imagine everything, I can imagine the whole world disliking Siya, I can imagine Siya being the president of the USa, I can imagine the whole Springboks go to the moon as Astronauts.. Imagintion has no limits. A whale piloting a Boeing 747 while dropping lions into the atlantic ocean, it's imaginable.

What a classy human being. Respect from NZ

Siya and Eben are usually roomies on tour and obviously best buds. If they are so competitive on the rugby pitch, imagine how hard it would be to take them on at darts or pool!😅

Those are the words of a true patriot. Not a flag-waver, not someone who paints a rosy picture of his own country, but a true patriot, who feels both love for his country, and responsibility for her fate. What a thoroughly inspirational guy. One of my personal heroes.

I mean its categorically false but its what almost every good person should say about their country. Also depends how you're measuring 'best'. Is it the best health? Economy? Ofc im being pedantic but I'm english and this guy is absolutely awesome unlike a few of his fellow springboks thats for sure

James, you seem like a lot of fun at parties. He’s a good guy who loves his country despite the flaws, can you not leave it at that? Also, cheap shot at the rest of the Springboks who are, by all accounts, nice guys. Twat.

@@homonaledi640 In almost every metric of ranking countries in terms of “the best”, South Africa will be nowhere near the top. That is an absolute fact. It doesn’t change the fact he may feel its the best which is great, he’s from there, be patriotic. But in reality, as he said, South Africa is a poor nation.

@@homonaledi640 No you clearly don’t. You need to fully read my original comment and understand all the words I’ve said because you clearly don’t. The comments about your wife and daughter I have no idea what they’re doing in that comment but cool👍. Lastly, your ignorance of the idea of using statistics and data measurements to evaluate countries success is quite worrying. Real GDP, GNI, HDI and the Gini Coefficient are all ways of measuring country’s. There are hundreds more but I can guarantee you, South Africa will rank low on all 4. Your subjective opinions on your country mean nothing as almost every person in the world thinks their country is the best. Kolisi clearly said it, he loves it but knows its a poor country. Im not being rude im simply being pedantic and pointing out how when you really look at it, South Africa is not the “best” as that implies it is superior to every other country.

Love you Siya! You are the epitome of a South African. I'm proudly South African.

Such a class act! Humble as all get out giving Mapimpi the spotlight. SA rugby is in good hands.

What a man. Lovely bloke from everything you see. Had a lot of detractors around his form at times (me included) but he literally always bounces back with next level performances. A Springbok great no doubt about it.

My captain! Living legend. ❤

5:23-5:28 You can hear the words of a true South African patriot.

I love Siya Kholisi. What a fine man, great leader. A hall of famer. Respect from Ireland.

Love Siya!!! Our captain! And you can understand why his team will follow him through hell if he needed it - because he’d be there front and center

Amazing story... both Siya and Makazole will do well in this World Cup. Exceptional players and monsters when they run onto the Rugby Field. Focused and hard as granite. Team has grown so much we can physically see it.

What an incredible person. I’d follow him anywhere. We are so lucky to have him in our side. Inspirational

Love Siya's personality. A true captain.

Laughed so hard at Siya! 😂🤣😂🤣🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦

Great captain. Perhaps our best captain ever.

Everything about this man, says, roll model for the next sports generation

What's most relevant and interesting in Sia's words is actually about what a great coach and human been Rasie is.... and so much less about Eben's size

Tackling Eben would also make me sad.... Love this oke - what a human being. Listened to the pod, and then had to watch the video as well... Laughed as only a non Afrikaner who has had an Afrikaner running at him can do...

Well said mate. I'm from Zimbabwe and I live in California...Beast is also from Zimbabwe 🇿🇼

During my national service in Upington 8sai we had a celebration day at their stadium. Schalk Burger was playing against my buddy Ted who tackled him. Schalk just grabbed him by waistline still holding on and just ran in for a try. At the time we were shocked at the size of him. I got to fly with Schalk on a four seater plane to Capetown on my first pass. Closest I ever got to a springbok.

SA is a great place because we don't try to make everyone the same. We very much enjoy getting to live with so many different cultures. All the cultures here have our own unique way of talking and living but at the end of the day we all laugh and cry at the same things and support our homies putting in work for the flag.

Listening to Siya you have so much respect for him being so humble, but even home respect for a coach like Rassie ........ to have understanding of people

A real South African! A leader! A Springbok forever!

Really good player! He always performs well when playing for the Springboks and it is great when a captain really deserves his place in the team and is a great leader!

Lekker Siya, good for staying in SA

an absolute enigma he is one of the best things to happen Rugby ever

A fantastic example and spokesperson for Rugby!

Siya is like all South Africans should react to each other. This can be the greatest country in the world if we can get rid of all the politicians that is sweeping us up against each other.

Funny. He is way superior to any of the guys he is talking about. He is is the World Cup winning captain. What a humble guy.

Really heart-warming comments about our Captain 🔥🇿🇦💚💛 usually hear so much crap about our BOKKE.

Captain fantastic we love you!

Eben Etzebeth is the strongest man in rugby. He's a freak.

Always great to listen to Siya

That is what exactly happened when I met Siya and the other Springboks at their hotel in Johannesburg in 2022. He was carrying his bags and I requested for a picture. He was like "Really" now, with my bags. I was like yeah. I was so excited. He accepted anyway. I took many pictures with many Springboks that day. Humble guys.

Hi Siya, I love springboks iam a fans from Papua Indonesia

We are with you all the way Siya! You have a very brave heart, massive motivation, you deserve all the accolades, we as South Africans, ordinary guys, we are proud of you, proud of the whole team, we are 100 percent behind you all 🙏❤️

You are all heroes, plus your wives! !♥️

Luv the way social media can connect people on a real level..luv Siya 🇿🇦go Bokke …Mapimpi - What a soul ,what a story 💚 SA is not a privileged boys club game …That why they fight so hard .. the stories are incredible

Love this interview! I know what he (Siya) is talking about !

Not the biggest ruggers fan so I haven't been to many games but I remember seeing Eben when I attended a Boks game back in 2013 and I couldn't believe how big the dude was, lol

Kolisi is just a funny bloke😂😂

What an amazing conversation

Eben is unbelievably strong

When sport unites the world. We are one.

The Adidas video of Klopp and Kolisi is a classic...🇿🇦

How i wish i could play rugby 🏉 in the future the way siya kolisi he is saying about where we come from its shows and give courage at the same time that its doesn't matter where you come from when you're in the team like springbok

Siya is a gem.

A class act 🙌

The only person who would make me star struck is Jurgen Klopp too.

Back in 2000 I was playing club rugby in the eastern cape ,we had a guy playing for our second string on the wing ,now the only reason he played B team was because he was always drunk. When he was sober he was one of those rib breaker tacklers.on this particular day we had an A vs B game ....my friend Piet showed up as usual smelling like brandy ,as the game progressed the A team was attempting to score a try ,I picked up the ball at the base of the ruck ,looked up and saw drunk Piet in front of me ,now I was a116 kg tighthead at that time and Piet was about 80Kg, easy tri right 2 m out and all that ,only as I picked out drunk Piet ,he looked up and smiled ,to late I realized Piet was stone cold sober .I ended the game with a fractured transverse coastal facet in my 4th neck vertebrae....

If SA government didn’t dictate quotas, SA& the world would have been denied Mampimpi, Am, Kolisi et al

Real sports like good men, gentleman always succeed. Union Rugby is tough as it should be. 🖤

Siya is so funny😅

My brother used to play rugby in school. He's a small guy that tackled +-2m guys. I asked him why he would do that and he said he would scan the players and tackle the biggest guy in the beginning for a nicer play. Bigger guys fall much harder than small guys so when they fall, 90% of the time, they have to take the bench.

Definitely should be a film on them from nothing to World Cup winners 🙌

Is there excitement in South Africa to see the clubs getting in the ERC competitions ? What do you expect ?

Sounds like me when I met the mountain 2016😱😱😱😱

Sorry to ask, I recognise them all but can’t place the names apart from Siya. Would someone kindly fill me in?

Mapimpi is a true inspiration - In 2004, when he was 14, Mapimpi's mother died in a car accident, leaving him under the care of his grandmother as his father had abandoned the family long before. Five years later his sister succumbed to an illness in her brain

Great bokke & South African !

♥️

Goodman

Very classy guy

Did anyone think about why they sent these two guys into the interview. Not Siya because he is the captain, so bongi because he is playing anyway, then reinach to create the illusion that he will be playing at least to a 7 to 1 split again. My conclusion is that we will have a most experienced settled team in there, not sure who will start at 13 though, unless Am really impressed in training . And a 6-2 split

Eben instilling EMOTIONAL DAMAGE!

Siya not liking full contact at training says a lot

He never told us if he caught Kolbe when he tried chasing him 😂

So strange he says he's bodis taking a lot yet he himself is badass on the field

That's an Ethzebeths introduction Siya🤣🤣🤣

Human

Whos here after his move to France

So you go to France, Siya! 😂🏆🇿🇦

Maybe we all can learn something...no?...hah.

Why do that to our captain, Elisabed?😂
