One thing’s for sure, Springbok captain Siya Kolisi knows how to make fun of himself.

The direct translation from Xhosa is “I was lying here, you can even see my posture”.

But tweeps chose instead to use the translate tweet function, which gives the phrase lost in translation a whole new meaning. According to Google, what Kolisi said was: “I was cheating on her here, seeing myself through this post.”Many saw the funny side and blamed Google for the mishap.Others referred to Rachel’s body language and said she didn’t fall for the joke.
