(The Post News)- Siya Kolisi, the captain of the Springboks, is aware that defeating Ireland in Dublin necessitates complete discipline.
Kolisi thinks it’s time to end South Africa’s 13-year losing streak in the Irish capital. The fourth game of the Springboks’ end-of-year trip will take place at Aviva Stadium on Saturday night. The rivalry will be ferocious, the atmosphere will be heated, and the margins will be narrow. According to Kolisi, Springboks has put in significant effort to improve their tackle technique. They steer clear of expensive penalties or cards that put them at a disadvantage.
He says the Boks have been honing the minor but important elements for weeks. Like how they lower their point of impact, wrap in contact, and keep their signature ferocity.

The captain acknowledges that South Africa’s fearless physicality is an integral element of their identity. Nevertheless, they never want to lose that advantage. However, he also admits that previous games were lost because they were unable to capitalize on crucial opportunities. They have been plagued by close losses that were frequently decided by only one or two points.
Kolisi thinks the team is now wiser and more prepared as a result of those difficult lessons.
In a strong yet optimistic tone, he declares, “Ireland is a brilliant side. We’ve been struggling here for a long time for a reason. Every player must be on the field for us to win, and we must seize every opportunity. Everyone knows just how significant this game is, not just to us. But also to our followers locally, which is why we have worked so hard this past week.”
Kolisi’s message is plain as the Springboks get ready for one of their most difficult games of the season. To maintain discipline, remain aggressive, and grasp every opportunity. This time, they hope to leave Dublin with a nation in celebration and history altered.
