After a fairly tumultuous 2022 season, both on and off the field, Southern Districts set out to rediscover their identity in 2023.

Results didn’t go their way, but captain Phil Potgeiter is adamant the club made progress this year and seems confident that a new coach next season can lead his side towards finals footy.

Overview with Phil Potgeiter:

“We always knew that it was going to be a bit of a rebuilding year at the club this year,” Souths captain Phil Potgeiter told Rugby News.

“Knowing that, I know one of my big goals for the season was to to enjoy my rugby again and to get as much enjoyment out of the season as possible and even though the results didn’t go our way, I think the majority of our playing group would say that they were able to do that this year.
