Blue Bulls Company CEO Edgar Rathbone says they have granted winger Sbu Nkosi a mental health break from rugby.
Nkosi, 26, was located at his father's Emalahleni, Mpumalanga home and he opened the gates of his home to his boss, Rathbone, and they had a conversation for 40 minutes. The conversation revolved around Nkosi's mental health and the pressure that comes with being a rugby player.
“Any mental health issue you have, you want to be helped. I got the sense he wants help and his father is helping him. He's Sbu Nkosi the son and that is the healing process. He's in a safe space currently, we will arrange help from our side and that could take time,” he said. “We are not trained for scenarios like this, what we needed to keep in mind were the player's reputation and his safety.
