Rachel commented on the post, saying that it wasn't her but rather their daughter Keziah who was against Siya wearing the headband as she feared embarrassment. Eben did not pass on the opportunity to tease his friend by adding his 2 cents to the post.

"Well... You don't," Eben commented, humorously criticising his friend's fashion sense.

The two rugby icons have won Mzansi's hearts with their strong brotherhood and exchange of witty comments, and this was a typical example of how they love poking fun at each other.

The post sparked a lighthearted conversation about fashion and the strong bond between Siya and his teammates.
