“We are 100% behind the Boks and this was our way of showing captain Siya Kolisi and his team that South Africa is united in our support of them on Saturday,” said News24 editor-in-chief Adriaan Basson. “Sport has the magical ability to unite a country and this final couldn’t have come at a better time for South Africa. We fully subscribe to the Springboks’ slogan that we are #StrongerTogether and will support Siya and the boys to the end,” said Basson.
