One has to be realistic about Kolisi.
It is clear Kolisi was a test standard 6 but definitely not a great.
It's also a fact he had guys like Eben, Bongi, Duane, Du Toit etc who did the real inspiring, leading etc.
Rassie made a shrewd move appointing Kolisi as captain. He knew he had the necessary leadership so having Kolisi as captain would not negatively impact the Boks especially as Kolisi seldom played deep into the crucial second half.
Kolisi was used as a poster boy to unite Souh Africans and that move was successful. He was a good Ambassador coming across as humble and respectful. I don't know much about his private life but won't comment.
Of course he didn't deserve all the accolades etc as a player or captain. They were based on emotion and not reason.
I am surprised Dave thinks Kolisi is better than Schalk. What a poor call! Reminds me of poor Rooitwit saying Luke Watson was a better player than Schalk at a time when Schalk went on to be world rugby player of the year. Reminds of that other nutter mozzietard who wrote post after post trashing process tackler Du Toit who now has been World player of THE YEAR TWICE. The blowhard also trashed Rassie who was World Coach of the year and the Boks who became World team of the year!!!!
Face facts oaks some on this board have not distinguished themselves. They clearly lack rugby acumen. Pity to see the normally sound Dave get it so wrong.
I strongly recommend that Mozzietard uses Chat before expressing his own opinions which so often suck big time.
Hahahahahahahaha.
