We have two black players here, Kolisi and Tendai. In my opinion Beast is more deserving of the honour. Firstly, he is our premier loosehead and one of the greatest servants of Bok rugby. I find it strange that Rassie felt the need to select Kolisi as captain in the first place when Beast was freely available.
Aside from these two, there is Eben. Of course, he is being targeted by our untermensch politicos. However, he has the most natural aura of authority. We saw this in Wellington last year when he rallied the troops before kick-off. We've seen it many a time.
If the Boks do win the final, there will never have been a less deserving captain. It would be quite remarkable. The narrative surrounding him will be blown out of proportion. That when we have black men such as Beast who have given so much more. That's quite a tragic scenario.
