SiyaKolisi

Siya Kolisi began at Ikey Tigers before Western Province and the Stormers, then spent time with the Sharks before his international record reached 100 caps and 70 points. The loose forward from Gqeberha has represented South Africa as a forward, and his honours include the Order of Ikhamanga in Gold, an SA Rugby men's player honour and a South African Sport Star of the Year award. The 2026 season places him with the Stormers in the URC, linking his provincial past to that competition. He offers international experience in the back row and a clear link between South African domestic rugby and the national set-up. That journey has run through provincial, club and international rugby, with the loose forward role as its constant.
