hold me down ❤️

Lived it. Loved it. Just a small town kid who had a dream and achieved his dream. From barefoot rugby in Northern Natal to playing for one of the countries most iconic high schools and then living my dream playing in France. I am truly grateful for everything . Thank you, rugby.

Lost for words, that was absolutely extrodanary and special. Love my club

It's good to be part of a winning club again. Slowly falling back in love with playing rugby :) 🤞

Top tier feeling seeing people you care about being genuinely happy and doing well in life.

Too much Phuthu and Ujeqe as a kid = 🍑. Loving being back and enjoying rugby again.

@NotladYrneh @LibhoGeza X @AluluthoTshakwe your influence is unmatched

Tell me this isn’t the craziest thing you’ve seen thus far in the Olympics. Quincy Hall with the loose boxers under the track suit.

Love seeing Athletes go off and show true emotion when they've won. The hard work and sacrifices they've put in to achieve something so great , let me celebrate and do what they want. Let people have their moments ✌️

@Wandi_14_ Just the start!

@Mattbauer5_ I pray it’s the beginning of his comeback - Too much unfinished business…

@jackbrummerx Proud of you Jack , born leader and one of the real ones out there.

I went from high school superhero: ➤ head border prefect ➤ deputy head prefect ➤ 1st team rugby captain —to being jailed for drunk driving. ━━━━━━━━ • ━━━━━━━━ As a young man, I lost myself. Waking up each day felt like a battle. ➤ no purpose ➤ no direction ➤ no confidence The uncertainty was paralyzing and severely affected my happiness. It was a grueling fight. Every morning, I questioned my choices and felt stuck in a rut. The frustration of not knowing where my life was headed consumed me. I went from an unfulfilling $5,000/month service-based business to immigrating to Ireland to be a volunteer coach in my search for real meaning. I refused to stay down. I fought to find my purpose and identity again. Slowly, I rebuilt my life, finding clarity and direction. ━━━━━━━━ • ━━━━━━━━ Now, I’m offering to help you do the same. Often, help is closer than it seems. If this is you: ➤ DM me let’s talk ➤ no catch just pure help Together, we can create a plan that aligns with your true potential and aspirations.

Pre season #9 starts today , just a kid living his dream ✌️.
