Schalk Burger responds to Duane Vermeulen's comparison of him to England's Henry Pollock. Vermeulen, a former Springboks teammate, admires Pollock's impact on the field, likening him to a young Burger with his iconic blonde hair. Burger humorously notes their hair similarity but warns Pollock about future hair loss. "If we're very similar, Henry Pollock, you're going to look like this in a couple of years," he jokes, removing his hat. He acknowledges Pollock’s energy and character, stating, "He brings something special to their team." During the Verdict show, Burger and fellow ex-Springboks Jean de Villiers and Hanyani Shimange share laughs about the comparison. Burger concludes, “I would like to think I was a little bit more understated.” This isn't Burger's first jab at Pollock, having previously commented on the young star's TikTok dancing.
