Siya represents the best of South Africa. Humility, respect and good manners.
I am Australian well done Springboks and Siya is just pure class mate ,what a leader
Thanks @ericcss7 we appreciate all the support from our southern Hemisphere brothers. Hope we can have your support for the England Game.
Thanks 👏🏾❤️
Much appreicated.
Coucou 🙋♂️je suis français un peu déçu😔 mais bravo au sud africain pour leur belle victoire bien mérité 😉
🇨🇵 ❤ 🇿🇦
@@picpic9628Merci!❤
Kiwi here, AB's supporter for 50+ years but what a guy and a player Siya Kolisi is. Whatever happens in the next couple of weeks, the Bokke have something truly special with him. Respect.
Respect to you as well our our All Black Brothers
Siya is just pure class. I'm french and gutted right now but what a man.
The French were amazing. All my respect
Ninguno de los que estamos en Sudamérica queríamos que ganaran los franceses, os vemos como una cultura muy arrogante e insegura. Los sudafricanos tienen una cultura por la que luchar, no los obsesionados y autoproclamados mujeriegos que son los franceses. Orgullosos de estar fuera
I do agree. Thank you from SA.
Well done to the French players on an incredible performance, but unfortunately I can't say the same for the booing fans. Also, it's pity that Du Pont played so brilliantly but chose not to credit the SA team's performance at the post match press conference and insteas chose to whinge about the referee. That was low class but no one will say anything because in was Du Pont who is treated like a deity.
Big up to u.
Siya speaks with such respect for the French team and shows gratitude for French hospitality. What a gracious leader and wonderful ambassador for South Africa.
Easier to speak like a champ when you win, for sure. But yes he is classy. Did the boks deserved to win, that's another story.
Springboks practice with the speaker emulating the French crowd noise is truly genius. Proud South African.....wow! Well done boys!
I remember Mikel Arteta was mocked when he did this to prepare Arsenal to play Liverpool at Anfield. It's good to see preparations being as detailed to the extent that the team was prepped for such margins
Journalists coming in hot with some loaded questions. Credit to Jaques and King Siya steering clear of the bait and showing respect all around. Humility and honesty is key
King Siya!
He is indeed, I like it!
What a great captain 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Congratulations South Africa from NZ … hopefully see you in the final for a great battle to see who will claim a 4th World Cup ! 🏆
Ditto
@mungoblizzard6114 Hope to see you guys in the final
Do not underestimate Argentina!
💯
See you there. It will be epic!
That's going to be an epic game.
Well done Siya for not getting trapped into calling out the ref...❤❤
Not only a class player, but I loved the way he interacted with the mascot who accompanied him onto the pitch, and does anyone in any sport sing his nation's national anthem with as much passion as Siya Kolisi?
He sings it like his life depends on it.
Hello Bokkes, as a french fan I can only admire your determination during this game. Congratulations your victory is deserved and not stolen! The level between the two teams was very balanced, it was an awesome game of rugby. Probably the best ive seen.
I think there are a lot of questionnable decisions made by the referee but I want to stay worthy in the defeat. May the better team win the world cup, enjoy the rest of the competition in our beloved country and let's all appreciate a little bit more these amazing final phases!
Ridicule. Quand ils ont perdu à Marseille ils ont pleuré sur l'arbitrage et ont mis la pression. C'est entre autres grâce à cela que les arbitres sont de leur coté, lorsqu'il s'agit d'influence, là c'est tellement gros qu'on est en droit de se demander si c'est pas un Mr Bevan n°2 et si Ben Okeeffe ne commence pas une collection de montres, lui aussi.
@@Lastchatte2🙄🤦♀️
Tsek!
We are often on the other side questioning ref decisions and from a South African point of view, there were alot of questionable decisions that went Frances way too. Like you said, the game was very balanced and in the end, 1 point is the difference. If the game was played again today, France would win. The rules of rugby are very complicated, too complicated. Makes it difficult for Refs at times. But Rassie was banned for 6 months for calling out Refs in the past, remember when we played the Lions? They make alot of mistakes
Pour baisser ton froc comme tu le fais, tu as eu 16 % de réduction sur un stock de vaseline sud africaine ou quoi ? Il n'y a pas eu une once de fairplay.
We have a proper leader in Siya Kolisi. He understands our game, his team mates.
Just a pity he cannot play a fetcher role, only 6 in the history of the game to a leadership role and not be able to fetch...quota
@@RicksPhatPharm-vw2lb why u being negative at least show respect to him my goodness u such crybabies !
@@simenzelwedlamini👌🏽
@@RicksPhatPharm-vw2lbso negative
Similar to John Smit, he is selected as a leader and not for skill. There were better number 2's around when John was playing and there are better number 6's than Siya now ...
Congrats South Africa!!!!!
Hopefully see you in the final
from All Blacks fan
The entire South africa wants to see SA VS ALL BLACKS finals lol... here in south africa is alot of all black fans. I think if the AB's is our second loved team 😅 ❤
It's definitely a Kiwi's/Boks final. The greatest rivalry in Rugby. It will be the ultimate WC title. Both teams are on 3 WC wins each. 🇿🇦 South African 🇿🇦 here.
The French were brilliant, SA showed guts, pride and determination,
This game and NZ vs Ireland must be 2 of the greatest QF in world cup history
NZ VS SA final
From back home... in Cape Town : going into this game my heart and head had a struggle- i honestly did not think we would take the French on their home ground, but my heart was green and gold all the way.... so well done boys... I'm proud to be an South African (😊win or loose) you guys rock!
Go Booke mama ❤
My mom was the same.
I just said that we must watch and see.
Go Bokke go ❤🇿🇦
❤
Nai bitting, nerve wrecking, brilliant match from both sides. The speed at which France started the match was impressive.South Africa fought all the way through and became victorious. What a match!!!❤🇿🇦
Well done Bokke you guys peaked at the right time. Eben Etzebeth is a relentless monster.
and so handsome too !!! honestly watching him play brings so much joy
And those arms of his. Wow
@@princessndlovu4869he's very easy on the eye 👁️... Love Etzebeth
Siya you are pure class!
As a all black supporter ...wow what an awesome game..congratulations boks
Thank U JESUS 🤗🤗🤗🤗
I never heard this country pray so loud in a long time ❤️🇿🇦
Colby u saved us by stopping that ball 🔥🔥🔥🔥
nje he did a sterling job weldne to him,
This was a brilliant game -worthy of the final. Similarly NZ vs Ireland. Either of the games could have gone the other way. Proud to be a Bok Supporter - The French team was awesome on attack, pace, power, and execution... just awesome. But the Bokke showed guts, determination, and ability to punch back and win in the end. What an amazing game, looking forward to a NZ-Bok final!
My thoughts exactly. It was worthy of World Cup Final 😅
Nz beat the team that has beaten bokkie n bokkie did the same
Pay tribute to Kolbe’s individual brilliance !
Well done Mr Kolisi. You delivered 100% work rate. It is hard to do that when the mind wants to protect an injury.
From New Zealand 🇳🇿 CONGRATS- SA. Cheslan Colby is one of my favorite rugby players and Kolisi is my favorite Captain then Rassie Erasmus is my favorite coach 😊 and an ABs boy for life.
Not Rassie? 😁
Right back at you brother. Was rooting for the ABs to win against IRL. Southern Hemisphere power!!!
@MarryMagdeline-dn6jk Actually thnx for the correction I mixed them names up.
Rich, poor, black, mixed race, white, indian etc are united by sport when it comes to South Africa and Rassie has built an amazing relationship between the fans and the team. Black players dont feel like quota players and that has gone a long way in uniting South Africa. Amazing country to be part of
I am of the opinion that the transformation period is over for some time now. The players in th SA team are there because they proved their worth. SA rugby now needs to continue stimulating rugby at a lower level, ensuring that there is a wider base of players to select from.
Congrats bokke !!! Well deserved win, much respect from France…
South Africa why can't we be one like this forever😢.Politics is coming we'll be separated again.Less said about Bafana Bafana.Die Bokkes really kjow how to bring the country together❤🙏🏽.God bless Africa.
@pleaseandthankyou4161 I agree, but we can't rely only on die Bokke to bring us together.Hopefully it won't be used as a policy campaign 😂. You know how they sneak in and take advantage of the situation and then no delivery afterwards.🦧🤣
What incredible players this SA team has. Legends of the game, each and every one of them.
Hello, i'm French, obviously, I'm devastated by what happened yesterday. I think we missed a lot of opportunities.
But I just want to congrats South Africa. This team is amazing, I think it's one of the greatest world cup ever, 4 teams that were winners contenders is juste unbelivable (dont know how to write this word haha).
Yes, there was some HUGE mistakes by the referees, not Ben O'Keefe but all the referees. He cant see everything, the guys behind the videos must say something. So yes, lot of mistakes but I cant accept to say that we lost because of that. Yes its part of it, but anybody saying that we lost just because of the mistakes of these guys is not honest.
We made so many mistakes too, some points were not taken.
Also we fought against once again one of the best nation in Rugby, this can't be easy.
I'm proud of France, i'm proud of this team and my nation.
GG South Africa, hope we'll meet again on the field and this will be a huge match again ♥
(But this time we'll win... hihihi)
🇫🇷 ❤ 🇿🇦
No worries. You only missed one letter.... Unbelievable 🤣
@@philapholisangozi6363 hahah thx 😆
Viva la France
Worthy opponents better luck next time. ❤❤❤
@@deborahsilver8301Pff the Next one will in 4 years. It’s fucking damn long. There’s no way our French Team will ever win a World Cup. This is bullshit.
SA can claim we are the the World Champion. But Football is better than Rugby
It’s "Vive la France" 🟦⬜️🟥
That game had EVERYTHING you want from a test match. Just amazing, and the French were absolutely fantastic. Their continuity of play was phenomenal, the way they build up the phases and offload was very impressive. They really can be proud of their performance. Well done Bokke we're proud of you!
Kolbes charge down was very important
Moment of the match, if not the whole world cup, to this point
Kolbe est un tricheur. du jamais vu il empêche la transformation de ramos.
@@charlesvandamc'était ton premier match de rugby ?
@@rid1bee et toi ton premier meeting d'Athlétisme ? ... le gars plus rapide que Usain Bolt (25 m en 2 secondes en plus depart arrété). Normalement on part au premier pas du buteur, pas avant, pas quand il bouge la tete. Le probleme c'est que ca se voit clairement à la vidéo ! Cela n'enléve rien à la qualité des Sud Af. qui avaient plus envie de gagner : devant les poteaux ils ne cherchent pas la pénalité mais a marqué l'essai qu'ils marquent. Et quand on est à 4 points derriere à 10 mn de la fin apres une attaque de 60m ... une poussée enorme du publique ... on ne tente pas une pénalité pour rester derriere à 1 point ... on tente l'essai à 5 points pour repasser devant ... si ca marche pas tant pis mais on ne joue pas petit bras à ce moment la de la partie.
I was trembling here for the Boks for us in S A soooooo intense 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Congrats 🍾🎉 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥Thanks guys we are proud of you guys.Siya 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️good leader
Siya is a humble superstar and I admire him as a leader and I’m English.
Pure class how Siya talked about the reff. Poor question from a hurting journalist that did not take enough breaths to slow down to think better before asking his question.
And I just shouted "fok that ref was shit to us too"
You have every right to feel grieved by the decisions you dislike. France was spectacular in the tournament and also in this game. You’ve taken massive steps forward and are rightly considered in the new top 4. Keep up the great work you are sure to get massive results in the competitions to come. But I don’t think France lost because of the referee.
Very poor question unfortunately. Trying to make someone who had just gave everything they had feel bad for something that was out of their control. The players head is completely in the game while playing, they aren't aware of every small downfall the ref makes during the game. They hear the whistle and accept, that is one of the great things about rugby, that they don't argue with the ref.
If we want to nitpick, he made poor decisions against South Africa too in every game he has reffed in this WC.
All we can hope for is that better and fairer refs will be used in future WC.
i think that must be a soccer Jornou...and Siya handled him well.
Just to clarify a few things about the ref issue : Im french and that question from the French reporter was scummy at best, and defamatory at worst . Dupont never said the "ref was bad". They said the following :
- They admitted they thought the quality of the officiating didnt live up to the quality of the game, but that it wasnt that bad either
- Then proceeded to say that, even if they were mistakes, Ben O'Keefe should never be targeted personally, and that there is an entire team of TMO behind him that didnt facilitate his officiating
- That they would appreciate if further questions would not go on this terrain, as they dont want to criticise the ref
- That, by principle, they accept as valid every decision O'Keefe made during that match, as none of them were outrageously incorrect
- That whatever mistakes might have occured, it went both ways and favoured both FRA and SA alternatively
- That wathever mistakes might have occured, they take nothing away from SA's win
They were extremely fair and measured in their terms and were also quite displeased with the reporter. Its very likely that they never wouldve mentioned the ref if the topic wasnt brought up in the first place (by that very same reporter btw!!). As usual, just media doing their best to try and stir up drama
Stir up drama ? the fuck are you on about, France was robbed, plain and simple
Thanks for the clarification here - I was super curious to know what had been reported on the French side.
Merci pour cette mise au point !
Bullshit. Dupont clearly criticized BOK, and he is right doing so. Shameful refereeing. So many 50/50 situations going on the same way.
This doesn't remove the amazing performance from SA. But France clearly deserved the win.
NB : Fiji exactly suffered from the same, both against Wales and England (and it was a French referee...)
@@scrivenroanI don't think that anyone in France think ref was that biased that the show was stolen. SA played their game very well. FR made way too much mistakes. But we can still say that ref was bad, simply because the ref team (inc TMO) was clearly not at the same level as both playing teams and not to the same level we have seen in previous tests. There were dangerous and forbiden things done on both sides at key moments with little or no consequences. This is not a pingpong game🤦 Having video recorded and TMO not getting back is not acceptable. I don't know the reason the TMO was almost never calling the central ref on things, but this is a problem. It gives a bad bitter taste to a great test where both teams where at the max 🥂 I do hope the IRB will solve those issues before the remaining games 🖖
Kolisi has such a good sporting spirit!
We love you Siya!!💚💛💚💛
Pure class Siya u do well we are proud of u as a leader u show us that u can even this yr to bring it bck Gqeberha is waiting for u
Lol
Pride of the nation right there
Fact.
I honestly get excited seeing Kwagga come in the game🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
That one is the beast in making
I was nervous going into this game. Wow, nicely done Bokke.
I love my team, my country, and my people, 🇿🇦. We had no right to win that game the French were superb. Kolbe!!!, Jesus Christ Kolbe!!! He was my "player of the match". His runs from deep gave us a lift every single time, the commitment for the charge down on Ramos. Kolbe was so switched tonight. I can't even think..... so many players stood up, Kwagga, Eben, Jesse. For the French Peato Mauvaka and Uini Atonio were incredible tonight, I was thanking the Gods when they were taken off. I guess the biggest difference between the two sides was the quality off the bench.
Mauvaka best player on the pitch by a country mile
The difference between the 2 sides was the referring. SA has been allowed to fucking disrupt the rucks. Being warned, given time to adjust... It's not always like that. The ref wanted the thing to be clean through granting points on very obvious things. The collateral damage is the french game disappeared in an ocean of small offenses from South Africa. And this has a huge impact on the game as well !
Hear Hear!
@@edouardmontfort7816 See you keep saying this, which offences? I dont know what world rugby want anymore, one moment, game is to stop start, the tmo should be less involved, then SA are commiting (what you are classing as) "small offences" to slow the game that should be penalised requiring a stopage... France Lost, great game well played, but you lost. If you were the better team you would have scored when it was 14 v 15. Infact your last try came in the first half. Blame your handling errors or your lack of positional awareness or your 3 missed kicks.
@@Jay.D.Smithy Which offenses ? Watch the game again, south Africans falling on the french side of the ruck to disrupt the thing regularly. Or trying to intervene when not allowed, the ref saying "noooooo", "release", "let gooo"...sometimes 2-3 phases in a row. That's totally killing the pace of the attack ! Or 3 times the ball gets out of the french ruck "by itself", and it's regathered by SA, while the players around are raging. And ultimately you miss 1 point. Just a single penalty out of everything that was ignored was enough.
Siya you guys cave me chest pains. My life been shortend by 5years atleast...🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🏆🏆🏆🏆
Let's hope the joy will add 5+ many more years 🥳
Siya protecting coach especially as our loosie was clearly using his hands to support his weight in the ruck was v good
Well done boys S/A from Canada 🇨🇦
Siya, jy maak my so fokken trots! enkosi mphathi! siyakuthanda!
As a SA supporter, I was fearing the worst end of first half. France dominated, and we were not looking clinical and made a lot of errors. But they hung on for a single point. Well done for that, pure grit. I do feel for the French though, as they played really well.
SA said they planned for 2023 2019 was bonus lets see 🏆
When I first saw that comment I got goosebumps. Rassie and Jaques are something else
well done bokke..well done..bad luck france......not often i jump in the air over an opposition team.......but in NZ...we all happy for yous..cheers
wow....im a Bok suporter...but i yelled so much for AB....i actually caught myself laughing. only one team in the world that we hav such huge respect for....its the AB....and the only team we r proud to lose to...not happy but respect...so bring on the final between us
The way he bailed out the ref though 😂 Better man than most.
Just a genuine guy. Best captain ever.
Bokke.
What a class reply from Siya on the ref question.
Bravo aux Sud Af! Les meilleurs ont gagné. Bonne chance pour la suite.
Well done Bokke!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
The French are a awesome side, and it could easily have have gone the other way. But the true sigh of great side is if you are under the pump and still keep the scoreboard ticking, that shows real character. Great game again!
As a kiwi I have learned to love and respect the Boks. Would be a dream come true to see them and the AB's in the final.
Mzansi that was the final b4 the final 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
🎉❤ one Team
One Nation
One Spirit 🇿🇦 ♥️

The Springboks coach and support staff are just masterful.
The most innovative team, always looking to find new strategies and ask questions of the opposition.
I'm glad the Springbok style has evolved into a more balanced style because watching them enforcing mistakes and penalties on their opposition used to be so boring.
Soya is a true leader on & off the field. His balanced assessment of the game is refreshing.
That without a doubt was one of the best games of rugby between these two nations I have ever seen. The charge down of the conversion kick by Kolbe was just pure magic. This team is arguably one of the best coached teams of the tournament. Hard luck to the French they deserved a spot in the Semi's they proved it on Sunday night. The semi finals is going to be a mouth watering prospect for the boks. Well done Siya your chargers so deserve this!!!! Well done.
What a class act these two are! Compare this with the French press conference, full of sour grapes, blaming the ref and little recognition of how good the Springboks were. I thought the French were better than that. Well done Boks! You are a really class act. From a Scottish supporter.
So with only England left unbeaten - I expect that to change next week - those two quarter finals NZ-IRE & SA-FRA were quality. Hard not to pick NZ - SA final
NZ to win over SA...
Argentina over ABs.
Lord!🙇🏽♀️
@@ThatguyJoshman Just to mention, as I recall, History seems to show that, whenever our beloved "Springboks" have reached a Rugby World Cup Final, they have Not Lost..!!
@@peterlbaldwin511 And i hope they do not loose but I just have a bad feeling
As a French born, though I haven't lived in France for 50 years, I 'm used to the bitter taste of defeat in World Rugby, not always fair but that's what it is, but to loose like that, at home, on front of all the fans and families is the worst feeling of my entire life hoping that one day we might lift this CUP and celebrate what France has brought up to this Holy game of Rugby. I fear I'm getting too old to ever see that happening now. It will be one of my worst memory to ever face in my last moments in life... that's what I'm feeling today.
En tant que Français d'origine, même si je n'habite pas en France depuis 50 ans, je suis habitué au goût amer de la défaite à World Rugby, pas toujours juste mais c'est ça, mais perdre comme ça, chez nous, devant tous les supporters et les familles, c'est le pire sentiment de toute ma vie, espérer qu'un jour nous pourrions soulever cette COUPE et célébrer ce que la France a apporté à ce jeu sacré du rugby. J'ai peur de devenir trop vieux pour voir cela se produire maintenant. Ce sera l'un des pires souvenirs de mes derniers instants de ma vie... c'est ce que je ressens aujourd'hui.
I'm sorry my brother for your pain. It was a nail biting finish . French played outstanding and Springboks equally skilled emerged victorious. They have been putting lots into this world cup especially for our people back home. We have lots of nation building going on and this game just cements our people keeps us unified for love of the game. 🤗🤗🤗🤗 lots of love from South Africa.
Sorry man.
Ne soyez pas triste, ce soir la France a perdu car l’arbitre dans les moments cruciaux a choisi de ne jamais sifflé dans le sens des français.
Cela rappelle la finale volée de 2011.
Aux yeux du monde la France n’a pas gagné mais dans nos cœurs et dans un monde juste elle aurait gagné.
Dans 150 ans personne ne se souviendra, mais nous nous souviendrons jusqu’à notre dernier souffle que ce soir la France a gagné.
Ce n’est pas parce que l’arbitre a décidé ce soir que nous avons perdu que nous devons l’accepter, à mes yeux la France a gagné et elle est la meilleure équipe au monde actuellement
Vaillante, joueuse, honnête et courageuse.
@@bigfouty03 great game worthy opponent and great sportsmanship.
The French were sensational. I can only imagine the disappointment. Respect from a Springbok fan.
Ireland, France, New Zealand, Scotland andSouth Africa have truly all been champs coming into this world cup equally prepared and oh Man all five are my favorites from now on 😊
Captain my captain ❤️❤️
BOKS GLORY IN THE FINAL AGAINST ARGENTINA.
Don't underestimate NZ
What a Captain big up Siya!
Good luck springboks... from the farm it was a good manage against France 🇫🇷 cheers guys
Absolutely fantastic game of rugby 🏉 respect to both teams.
This defeat is so frustrating.
Anyone could have won this quarter-final, but it was Colisi and Erasmus' South Africa who emerged victorious.
Congratulations and good luck for the future.
Thanks you guys for a guts performance that's how the champions are they dig deep well done bokke
Need to see Sya and Ardie Savea on the same team 🔥
Future Barbarian back row combo 🤔
Why?
If DuPont whinged about the ref that’s really disappointing. From a neutral perspective I thought the iffy calls balanced each other out . No ref is perfect.
It’s not like there was a massive forward pass for the match winning try 😉
Just watched the French interview (I am French)
Antoine did not really complain about the ref. He was asked about the swing decisions - taken or not change a game!
He said that is was tough and that some decisions could have gone one way or another. Not always in Frances favour.
The journalist was looking to get a controversial point
Just a penalty given that should have gone the other way, as Kitsoff has his hands on the ground. And that's juste one. But congrats to the boks, very solid team, for me awful to watch playing, not the rugby I like but very efficient. We were not precise enough and paid for it. Now if you don't mind me I'm all for NZ now
The journalist distorted Antoine Dupont's words
Winners celebrates and losers explains... Congratulations springbok🎉🎉
True story a win is a win one point is one point
As you'd expect, the outcome of such a close match hinges on details that could prove controversial.
But history has already been made. South Africa will face England in the semi-finals.
Well... That's one way of seeing it.
Then what about Rassie's comments prior to the game (on refereeing mistake that would give the win left or right) ? Losers' complain?
Facts:
-1995: referee got a golden watch prior to the match between FRA & SA
-2011: Craig Joubert admitted his numerous mistakes during NZ-FRA final
-2023: I can list all the mistakes going one way (and if you want the very few that were in favor of FRA), but you will say again it's a loser's complain
France were stolen the win several times.
Commonwealth always refereeing commonwealth.
What would you think of a Belgian or an Andorran referee for a FRA vs SA quarter final? just for fun...
A JOB WELL DONE SIYA AND THE TEAM.
Pure class Siya.
What a battle (For the war is yet to come vs NZ in the finals)...Well in Boys...Regards from Kenya.
Well done, Boyzz. Classy. MA se kinders, daai..
Siya Kolisi is one of the all time greats of our beloved sport.
My captain kudlaliwe Marn yhuu big up Gxarha and boys🇿🇦🇿🇦
Siya you rock!
Siya always taking the high road!!!!! That Ref wanted the home team to win , some of his calls were definitely biased but we came out on top so we move on to the next
Well done Siya for leading South Africa towards the semi final. My grandson Harrison Tapuai is very happy. Good luck for the next game.
You could see the reaction of Siya to the question about the ref he said "Jesus, Yasse" before clarifying the question to Jacques. These guys just gave 100% effort to win by 1 point and this journalist decides to insinuate that Antoine blamed the ref. Antoine did speak about the ref not being at the highest level, but he only spoke about this because of the journalist asked him about it.
Well done Boks you are all greatRugby Teams unfortunately some had to loose but it does not mean the ones who lost are not good teams. You are all very good teams.
New Zealand/South Africa have gone under the radar for the first time in Rugby World Cup history which was odd, have KO the two favourites Ireland/France.
When it comes to KO Rugby they both know the game to get over the line.
Go Bokke! Legendary game!
Amazing game, just wish the French crowd wouldn't boo all the time. Not the nicest.
Siya Kolisi such a credit to South Africa and Rugby.
We salute you bokkes well done!😊
Maximum respect to France.
@@Jrt91 Well if you know their story in world cup. They have the right to be...depressed... robbed so many times... Especially in 1995 against South Africa
see the replay and see that a number of faults in the ruks has’nt been whistled, charges with elbow, etsebetz « en avant » and of course Kolbe who start largely before Ramos.
Anyway Boks have a wonderful, Cleaver, precise and strong team
But one point , you can understand
Its such fine Margins! That charge down for the French penalty cost them dearly. Both great teams.
Im hoping we beat South Africa in the Semi's but doubt it 🏴 . Been a great world cup though, thoroughly enjoyable.
He’s a man with dignity Siya Kolisi
So much for the 2 best teams in the world(Ireland and france) but i suppose when your main opponents are england, Portugal, republic of congo and Venezuela then the ranking points come easy.

Wow this young man Kolis is genius when it comes to questions is been long I have been listening to him answering questions good communicator, I am not surprised by the French captain complaining but sometimes it is good to accept defeat with a good faith I remember last year when they defeated South Africa and South Africa pointed out some unsatisfactory decision from the ref on that day they called South Africa crying babies anyway goes around comes around well Bokkes
