Back- to-back World Cup winning captain Siya Kolisi lead our boys to a jaw clenching 12-11 world cup win against three times winners New Zealand famously known as All Blacks.
While South Africans united in celebration of our boys who continue to paint our rainbow colours brighter, lifting our beautiful country high on a global scale, the springboks players also celebrated their win on their social media.
Our captain who last posted on his social media platforms five weeks before the Springboks win on Saturday October, 28th, shared his first post after the win capturing it:
“2019 – 2023 Same God.”
Both Siya and his wife Rachel are proud christians who often share a lot of content on their christian values sometimes accompanied by quotes from the bible scripture.

In one post dated 8 weeks ago, the Gqeberha born captain shared a picture of his springbok Rugby shirt with a bible opened at Romans chapter 8 and captioned it:
“Romans 8:28 “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.”
