The first Springboks team of the year has everyone talking. This man is set to make history for the Boks.
Springboks head coach Rassie Erasmus has named his first side of the year.
FOUR players are set to make their debuts. So, one of them will make history as the BIGGEST Springboks player of all-time.
NTLABAKANYE ENTERS THE SPRINGBOKS RECORD BOOKS
All 150kg of Asenathi Ntlabakanye will enter into the Springboks history books.
So, when he runs out for his debut he will become the biggest player (in terms of weight) to have ever played for the South Africa.
Furthermore, the Lions behometh prop weighs a staggering 150kg.
Meaning he is even heavier than Wilco Louw (144kg) – and that say’s a lot!
HOW THE HEAVIEST IN RASSIE’S SIDE COMPARE
Louw 144kg meaty frame is now the second heaviest in the Springboks side.
Thereafter, he is followed by the likes of Thomas Du Toit (134kg), Gerhard Steenekamp (128kg), Lood de Jager (125kg) and Ox Nche (122kg).
Jisliaak it. As it is the Springboks already have the Bomb Squad, the most powerful scrummaging side and the most intimidating forwards in World Rugby. Let’s add 150kg of Ntlabakanye to that.
HOW DO YOU THINK NTLABAKANYE’S SPRINGBOKS DEBUT WILL GO? HOW DO YOU SEE THE 150KG BEHOMETH CAREER UNFOLDING?
