SIYA KOLISI’S SON COMPARED TO CANAN MOODIE
Ahead of last week’s game against Ireland, Siya Kolisi’s wife, Rachel, posted a pic of her and their two children, Nicholas and Kezia.
The family was showing their support to the Springboks at the Stade de France.
In the pic, Siya’s wife and kids – all wearing their South African rugby shirts – beam at the camera.
But followers were quick to point out one observation: the captain’s son bore a striking resemblance to his fellow team player.
Canan – the youngest Springboks Rugby World Cup squad member – is just 20 years old, while Nic recently celebrated his ninth birthday.

HUMBLE BEGINNINGS
Like Siya Kolisi, who was born and raised in Zwide in the Eastern Cape, Canan Moodie also comes from humble beginnings.
Moodie and his family live in Paarl in a neighbourhood riddled with crime and drugs.
He told Rugby Pass: “Life was good. We didn’t have much. We didn’t have a car to drive to training, and my parents weren’t rich. But we never had a victim mentality. That’s the one thing our parents made sure we never had.”
