Elisha Tshimena:
“The players have put in a lot of effort. Through social media, I have observed them in training. It was thrilling to watch Makazole Mapimpi score a try in a Rugby World Cup 2019 final. I want them to succeed in every game they play in the group stages.

Players from Hoërskool Vryburger High School’s rugby team had these well wishes to share with the Bokke.

Nyabulo Shabalala:
“I want to watch the Springboks play the All Blacks. This is an event that cannot be missed. It would be amazing to see All Black jersey number 13 play against Cheslin Kolbe.”

Lerato Ponto:
“The boys need to play as a team, when they do that, they win their games. Together, they can do more and maybe take home the trophy. It would be unfortunate if they did not participate in the finals.”
