Almost there: Siya Kolisi and two stars lead in the race to Springboks centurion

Becoming a Springboks centurion is a rare and proud achievement. It represents dedication, resilience, and world-class talent. Only a handful of legends have reached this remarkable milestone. Names like Bryan Habana, Jean de Villiers, and Victor Matfield sit in that elite group.

Their consistency and excellence carved them into South African rugby history. Every cap is a battle won, every game a memory sealed. For today’s stars, the centurion mark is not just a number. It is the ultimate recognition of loyalty, sacrifice, and service to the green and gold jersey.

Siya Kolisi and two stars lead in the race to Springboks centurion

On Saturday at Kings Park, Siya Kolisi wins his 97th cap. The inspirational captain now marches closer to triple figures with pride. Kolisi has lifted two Rugby World Cups and inspired millions through his leadership. His consistency has shaped the Springboks into a fearless, united force.

Alongside him, Pieter-Steph du Toit remains a defensive giant. He secures his 92nd cap this weekend, proving once again his immense value. His tireless work rate and thunderous tackles inspire younger teammates. Damian de Allende also wins his 92nd cap. He continues to dominate midfields with his powerful running and sharp vision.

Over the years, these three warriors have become Springbok pillars. Their influence stretches beyond personal performance. They set standards, guide rising stars, and show what wearing the jersey truly means. As the centurion milestone approaches, their names grow stronger in Springbok legend.
