South Africans in the meantime are willing to go the extra mile as a means to secure the Webb Elis cup, ensuring that it remains right where it belongs. While the tension builds up, many of our popular names have taken to social media platforms with hysterically funny suggestions that South Africa should engage in as preparation for this game.

He captioned his post:

“This post has nothing to do with the caption. I’m just here to find out what the plan for Saturday is Bangani. Where are we watching the game? What are we wearing? When they do the haka are we going to just stand there or are we also going to do the Mnike dance routine as retaliation? Which cologne are we using? Which bank card must we swipe? Which cut of meat must we put in the braai stand? Which drink must use to fill the cups? I need answers quickly. kuyaphuthuma! I don’t want mistakes!”
