Siya Kolisi:
“We have so many problems in our country. A team like this, we come from different backgrounds, different races, and we came together with one goal.
“I hope we have done that for South Africa, to show that we can pull together if we want to achieve something.” pic.twitter.com/yY0YnpRRta

2 – @fsteyn12 is the 2nd @Springboks player to win a #RWCFinal after Os du Randt; overall Frans Steyn has won each of his 17 matches at the @rugbyworldcup, no one has played as many games at the tournament without losing at least once. Charm.#RWC2019 #ENGvRSA pic.twitter.com/mVwPQaK62C

Zwide and Despatch are two different worlds. But today Siya and Rassie gave both places the gift of a World Cup. If that is not the lovely story, then I don’t know!

To see Siya, a kid from the township, now a World champion and leader of men. Sorry, I’m out. Nothing tops this.
