If I don’t play well for my union or for my club, I won’t get selected to be here. Here it’s different. I can’t explain it. When you put on the Springbok jersey, it’s a lot to play for,” said Kolisi.
“The competition for positions is from the guys that are playing with you. It’s healthy competition. We are also helping each other. Marco is my best coach, Kwagga is the same. Then you add on what we play for — the people of South Africa. “People talk about how much pressure the game is … But coach Rassie said to us in 2019, we’re in a place of privilege. We have the honour of representing the whole of South Africa. What you do with your talent … you can control people’s moods on Monday.”
