Johan Meyer, the man behind MPS’s winning streak, and fellow coach Armin Maritz, said he was inspired by the message from Siya.

“These are the big moments we live for, the moments we coach for and the moments the boys train for. We realise it is going to be tough, and we are inspired by the Sharks win over Munster in their quarterfinal playoff match, where they fought until the end. It is the never-die spirit of our team that keeps us going. We showed the video in assembly to the boys this morning and they are truly inspired and motivated to have these words from their hero, our county’s hero, Springbok Captain Siya Kolisi!”
