Ruan Botha takes on the #HotSeat

--:--
The Cell C Sharks have just returned from their tour of Australia and a player who stood tall amongst most was lock Ruan Botha. Botha has spent little over a year in Durban after joining from the Stormers in 2016. Standing at 2.03 meters, he certainly does stand out in matches but most importantly with his performances. A hard working forward who is a lineout king similar to the great Victor Matfield. With dreams to still become a springbok we thought we should bring in the big guy and give him his ultimate test yet which is the world renowned Hotseat and find out more about the guy.
