Cartoon photos of the Springbok 2023 Rugby World Cup champions Eben Etzebeth and Handre Pollard as Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA 6) characters have gotten the interest of a number of social media users – this comes after the images were posted on Instagram on Wednesday, 6 December by SA Rugby Mag.

‘EPIC’: NETIZENS ON EBEN ETZEBETH, HANDRE POLLARD’S ‘GRAND THEFT AUTO (GTA) CHARACTERS’

It is undeniable that Eben Etzebeth and Handre Pollard are one of the fan’s most favourite Springbok Rugby World Cup champions after winning the Webb Ellis in Paris, France on 28 October. The rugby players also have another thing in common… they both are expecting to be first-time dads. Their wives, Anlia Etzebeth and Marise Pollard announced their pregnancies soon after the Springboks became champions after beating New Zealand in the final.
