I heard a rumour that Kolisi could be signing with Wasps or Sale Sharks after the World Cup. Has anyone heard anything about this?

I'd heard it might be Wasps or Sarries. More than likely Sarries as Wasps have an abundance of loosies. Carr, Reader, Young, Hughes, Morris and Shields off the top of my head. 

Might be bollocks though as I heard it on The Rugby Pod podcast and they can be full of it sometimes.

Sarries might be looking to find a replacement for Schalk as he's getting a bit long in the tooth now.

Kolisi is getting better. The main thing is his work rate is much higher than before.

His work rate has definitely improved, but I still question his overall effectiveness. Aside from a couple of clean outs and turnovers, his best work is running in space. If he could tighten up his game, he'd be a pretty useful Bok. He doesn't fetch, but he isn't a powerful carrier like a Schalk or Juan etc. Where and how do we make the best use of him?

Agreed. He is a good strike runner, but a weak breakdown operator. Against both Aus and NZ I've caught him just flopping down into rucks while the opposition fetcher is grabbing the ball. Too many lazy moments, some weak tackles, blowing opportunities by hogging the ball. He's always going to be a "win some, lose some" deal.
