Rugby: Rassie says Kolisi will still be Springbok captain as long as he’s good enough

# Rugby: Springbok head coach Rassie Erasmus says Siya Kolisi will captain the team as long as he’s good enough to be the first choice in his playing position. He says he realises Kolisi will be 36 when the next World Cup takes place in 2027. Erasmus says other players such as Eben Etzebeth, Salmaan Moerat, Bongi Ngobeni and Pieter-Steph du Toit all led the team at times, but for now he will stick to Kolisi as long as he is fit enough and good enough.
