Danie Gerber – Maestro of the Midfield

Danie Gerber simply is the best Springbok ever. I’m sure this statement will open up debate, but no one will argue about his ability to cut open defenses.

Robert Du Preez – The Perfect Service

Robert Du Preez broke the mold of a typical scrumhalf in the late 1980’s.

Like Gysie, he was a fluid runner who could easily spot a gap and create opportunities for the players outside […]
