Springbok captain Siya Kolisi’s son, Nicholas, recently showed that he may well follow in his famous father’s footsteps one day.
Siya Kolisi is one of the most influential Springboks of all time.
His leadership skills both on and off the field, have seen him recognised globally as an icon of the sport.
It appears he has passed on some of that talent to his son.
Nicholas Kolisi plays his schoolboy rugby for Diocesan College (Bishops) in Cape Town.
Recently, he came face-to-face with another son of a former Springbok great.
Nicol Burger, son of Schalk Burger, plays his rugby for SACS.
The post-match picture went viral as the pair posed covered in mud.
