“I feel much better. Obviously there’s a lot to say that I can’t say out loud, but I’m getting better.said Sbu Nkosi (age 26, 16 games). It was just a lot of mental pressure. It has been under construction for several years. I was just trying to stay calm. It was a fight. I’m at a point where I have to prioritize the person before the rugby player.»

Sbu Nkosi
“I just needed time. I huddled in a bubble at my father’s house. Who rules my state of mind every daydeepened Nkosi. I am not special or different or unique in any way. I think that’s something to focus on a little bit more, whether you’re up or down. It’s always sobering… Maybe a little effort is needed in how guys deal with the wave of emotions that come with good times and bad times.»
The player has told his club, the Pretoria Bulls franchise, that he would like to take a break but would like to return in the future. Bulls officials told him Tuesday they would offer their support.
The Bulls will play in the Champions Cup for the first time this season when they face Lyon this Saturday.
