Rassie Defends Kolisi after Weight Criticsm.
Face it, at 218 lbs Kolisi is a fairly small flank. Is he trying to bulk up? And where better to do that than in France.
Kolisi is a strange one. In his book Rassie also vehemently defends Kolisi, but we all know on the field Kolisi has major weaknesses. A strong carrier and secure tackler, but too frequently disappears for long periods (see France 2023) and he's a non-factor at the breakdowns.
The best I have seen Kolisi play was under Alister Coetzee, and in some games when the Stormers play a running game.
He is good in an open-running game, more akin to a linking number 8. In tight games, he can go missing. Kolisi does usually have good games against the All Blacks, which are usually expansive with lots of open play. Turn overs have eluded Kolisi, it is not clear why.
I wonder who weighs more…Eluckmiss or Kolisi.
O
Mozzie gets more pathetic by the day.
Rassie is not playing international rugby. His being slightly overweight doesn't effect his coaching.
Slightly….the man is a brick outhouse!
Fat shaming our double RWC winning coach is not very endearing...
Mozzietard has a Pathological hatred of Rassie.
...connected to some or other mynhoop trauma from his formative years...some Dutchmen laaities did quite a job on him...and somehow Rassie reminds him of that...he's fine with most other boertjies, but boy does Rassie steek dwars in his krop...
