Apparently asking to be bought out of his contract at Racing to return home to SA
Soya Kolisi
Obviously the heading should say Siya not Soya !!!!!!
1-million-a-year contract. I wonder how much Soya gets if he drops out of the remainder.
Oh god, that was embarrassing……I wrote Siya and didn’t check before I posted !
Apparently, SA are buying him out of his contract. The Sharks are most likely to sign him, so I read.
Totally overrated….subbed every match at halftime, because it makes no difference to the play or the captaincy if he is on the field.
Well, his chickens has come home to roost. True captain was Duanne Vermeulen and the other players like Bongi. Kolisi was just the cheer leader grabbing all the headlines. I can’t believe how over hype he is. He does maybe a few good runs with ball in hand and he is a hero.
Racing was looking for a warrior, but we all know he hates contact.
French people can’t be easy and they are very opinionated but they are fair if they have to pay the guy that much.
I would be expecting much more. I wonder if he has a performance Claus in his contract?
I’m allergic to soya, Mpower !!
Editing any of your posts in a thread allows you to edit the post heading too, Becs. It's more fun the way it is, of course.
More like Soy boy Kolisi.
I just hope he doesn't make it to another world cup and 36. How many minutes will he play then? 10 and the let the rest of the team do the work? We need a player that can go for 100 min in a final, not a part timer.
Surely there at better opensiders in SA
Thanks Pakie
I know it’s bringing a smile so I’ll leave it as it is
I read he’s left Racing with immediate effect.
A passenger
Balls…exposed the first time he wasn’t given special status.
Si ya is coming to the end of his career. Time to find a replacement. He has done well and deserves some respect.
Mampara power clearly upset by 2 RWC wins where Siya was captain.
Like other guys coming to the end of their careers there will be a phased and carefully managed handover.
Thank goodn ess for the level head of Rassie. Can't have Mamparas running the show!
All that Kolisi did to win the WC final was blow a try and get a yellow, that by game precedent should have been a red. In the prior WC final he was gone shortly after the half….Eluckmiss no doubt remembering that Francois Louw, who should have started, saved the Welsh semi with a turnover Kolisi couldn’t have made in a thousand years.
Respect the Beast, see Kolisi for the political choice he has always been.
I can't believe that forked out so much money to buy him out his contract. Man, had there been any player in the world that has been given so much support.
To play R20 just to buy him out. Racing had a point, they had to pay the Shark to get him a d on top of that pay him a million euros per year. I would be livid if I invested in a player and then realise he was propped up to look good and is a nobody player without his team around him.
Toulon got the most of the 2007 Boks and every player was professional.
They had Habana, Bakkies, Joe van Niekek, Juan Smith and those guys won them trophies. Then comes Etzebeth that just use the club season to get repairs a d hardly plays, Kolisi with his moaning and Bakkies had to step in and yet got clapped because one bok can't speak out over another bok.
Bakkies and those players are so well respected by Toulon. They were committed to the cause and ultimate professionals.
Nope, I don't want Kolisi back.
I like the way he sings the national anthem, and I like it when he is substituted before halftime.
I do hope that we don't buy him out. 33 when there are other foreign base players that can play longer. Why on earth would SA want to foot such a steep bill. Rassie made it clear, if you want to be captain then you need to be in SA.
Kolisi has been coddled his whole career, even from his school days he was given a scholarship by Johan Rupert that paid for all of his schooling and boarding. Ensure that he succeeded and got all the support from the private (White) sector to make him successful. No other sport player or even rugby player had so much support behind him.
I think kolisi should hang up his boots and grab a Sp eer and shield and join those hype dancers at the start of the test match to motivate the crowd and the team. Not point in having him on the field with the whistle is blown
For a million Euros you should be able to get at least four Kolis's plus a Bavuma thrown in.
Who are the idots with all this money to waste?
Not a Captain in any shape or form.
We all know who was the actual Skipper during the last RWC and it sure was not Kolisi.
Vermeulen was de facto captain in both WCs. Kolisi led the choir. Sickening how this man has been credited with so much when he has done so little.
You really are clueless Dave, you have these fixations and no ability to take in what’s actually happening on the field. Kolisi better than Schalk….hahaha.
He can be utilized as our human resources manager & national anthem singing coach.
