\u201cOver the years I\u2019ve played him a few times and you always know he\u2019s there.\u201d<\/p>\n
When Maro Itoje is on the field, you\u2019re\u00a0always\u00a0aware of him. Whether he\u2019s disrupting rucks, nicking lineouts, or applying pressure with a trademark \u201cYeah, boy!\u201d, the England lock is a menace in the best possible way. Kolisi has gone head-to-head with him more than once \u2014 and it\u2019s never an easy day.<\/p>\n
DID YOU KNOW?
Itoje was a multi-sport star at school, representing England at U17 level in shot put and playing basketball, football, and rugby.<\/p>\n
#3. Tom Curry \u2013 \u201cThe Breakdown Bruiser\u201d<\/p>\n
Position:\u00a0Back-row
Height:\u00a06 ft 0 in

\u201cI have been chatting to Tom Curry every now and then. I like to think we\u2019re friends. He\u2019s a very good player.\u201d<\/p>\n
Tom Curry may still be young, but he\u2019s already developed into one of England\u2019s most important forwards. With an engine that never quits and an eye for turnovers, Curry brings heat at every breakdown. Kolisi\u2019s respect for the flanker runs deep \u2014 on and off the pitch.<\/p>\n
DID YOU KNOW?
Rugby runs in the family. Tom is the nephew of former England hooker John Olver and twin brother to fellow professional, Ben Curry.<\/p>\n
