The celebrations that followed South Africa’s Rugby World Cup win on Saturday, proved that captain Siya Kolisi and coach Rassie Erasmus share a close bond.

In the footage just before the trophy presentation, Kolisi can be seen trying to persuade Erasmus to join him in lifting the Webb Ellis Cup.

Erasmus, though, declined and insisted that Kolisi enjoy that moment in the spotlight alone.

The Boks are now on their way home before they embark on a week-long trophy tour.

Kolisi took to Instagram, sharing a picture of himself and Erasmus together:
