Kolisi delighted with innovative Boks

Tries from Kurt-Lee Arendse and Eben Etzebeth either side of half-time guided the Springboks to a first win over England at Twickenham in eight years, with Damian Willemse adding two drop goals.Arendse’s try – his seventh in seven Test matches – came as the Boks were leading 6-3 in the first half.

“That’s what happened today. Guys like Gaza, Willie and Kurt-Lee, when they see an opportunity, with their skills, they are capable of doing things like that. “What I said last week is that there is nothing we haven’t faced this year. We’ve had a red card before so we were prepared for this,” explained Kolisi. “I told the guys to just work harder for one another, but they already knew that.

Kolisi said the team is in a good place going into 2023, when they will be expected to defend their World Cup title in France.
