Northern Transvaal Rugby – Currie Cup Finals 1987 to 1991

During the 1980’s international rugby was a real commodity for South African rugby supporters. The Currie Cup served as the pinnacle of rugby in South Africa and the biggest rivalry was without doubt between Northern Transvaal and Western Province. Province dominated the Currie Cup in the early 1980’s, but the momentum shifted in 1987 when […]

Stephen Brink – Free State Prodigy

Stephen Brink was a schoolboy prodigy who played for Free State Schools twice, captained them and also played for SA Schools. There was a lot of buzz around the young player when he made his senior debut for Free State in the mid-90’s and he lived up to the promise by scoring some fantastic tries. […]

Gerrie Germishuys – A Classic Wing

Gerrie Germishuys was a classic winger who regularly beat his opponents on the outside. Just watch his try against the All Blacks in 1981. When last did a Springbok winger beat his opponent on the outside like that? He will go down as one of the greatest Springbok wingers of all time. Enjoy and thanks […]

Ollie Le Roux – Skilfull Monster

Ollie Le Rous was a multi talented sportsman. He reached the highest honours on the rugby field and he also won national colours in water polo. In the late 90’s he was mainly used as a “super sub” in the Springbok setup, but always made an impact when he came onto the field. Enjoy and […]

1997 Currie Cup Final – Western Province vs Freestate

Western Province had a woeful season in 1996 and missed out on Super Rugby action in 1997. The won the Night Series against Boland and they went into the 1997 Currie Cup season as one of the favourites. Their only loss came against the Sharks early in the season. Freestate would go on to upset […]

Tim Horan – The Linebreaker

Tim Horan was quite simply, the greatest inside centre that ever played the game. He had a magnificent step off both feet and had electrifying pace that could cut opposition defenses to shreds. He won two Rugby World Cups with Australia and in 1999 he was named player of the tournament. Just think of his […]

Jean De Villiers – The Intercept King

Jean De Villiers will go down in history as one of the greatest centres the world has ever seen. He made his international debut two years before making his Super Rugby debut for the Stormers. He scored, and more importantly, created some great tries for the Springboks in his long and distinguished career which spanned […]

Jesse Kriel – The Strike Runner

Jesse Kriel was a bit of a prodigy when he made his debut for the Bulls as a 20 year old in 2014. Now he is a Springbok veteran with a World Cup winners medal around his neck. He hasn’t always been the number one pick at 13 for the Springboks, but he scored some […]

Andrew Mehrtens – The Complete Package

Andrew Mehrtens is one of the greatest All Blacks of all time. People will often talk about Carter, Barrett and Fox as the greatest All Black flyhalves, but Mehrtens is right up there as one of the greatest. His kicking stood out (who will ever forget that massive penalty in extra time in 1995?), but […]

Joe van Niekerk – The Prodigal Son

Joe van Niekerk was somewhat of a prodigy. He was a sublime schools sportsman and was undoubtedly the king of KES. He very quickly made an impact in first class rugby and was unexpectedly selected for the Springboks by Harry Viljoen in 2001 against the All Blacks. He played a blinder. He was a regular […]

Springbok Greats – HO De Villiers

“I went to Dale College one year and the headmaster, a Mr Searle, told me he had a future Springbok who was then playing for the school. “H.O.” was a good looking, clean-cut youngster who was headboy of the school. I addressed the pupils and it was his duty to thank me. I understood he […]

Springbok Rugby – The Greatest Ever Fly-Halves

We’ve narrowed this down to five players who have all played brilliantly at fly half for the Springboks. the only really tough omission was of course Bennie Osler, who was a legend in the 1930’s. The order of the players will definitely be open to debate, but we hope you enjoy the action none the […]

Stefan Terblanche – Fantastic Finisher

Stefan Terblanche hit the South African rugby scene like a hurrican in 1998. James Small was injured and Nick Mallett needed a new right wing. Terblanche showed promise as youngster at Boland but in 1998, he got an opportunity to show the world what he could do, while playing for the Sharks in the Super […]

Os Du Randt – The Mobile Mountain

It’s a bold statement, I know, but in my humble opinion Pieter “Os” Du Randt was the greatest prop to ever play the game. He did struggle with injury mid way through his career and he was away from the game for two years before returning in 2003 and reclaiming his spot in the Springbok […]

Justin Swart – The Speed Merchant

Justin Swart hit the domestic scene like a tornado in 1995 and immediately made an impact at Western Province. He was selected for the Springboks in 1996, but only ever played a handful of tests between 1996 and 1997. When he was at his peak, he was dynamite. He had exceptional speed and could finish […]

1990 Currie Cup Final – Northern Transvaal vs Natal

Natal came into the 1990 Currie Cup as major underdogs. In their 100 year history, they have never won the Currie Cup and no-one expected them to do so against the mighty Northern Transvaal, who have won the Currie Cup in 1987, 1988 and 1989. But in rugby, anything can happen and with Wahl Batmann […]

Joe Rokocoko was an awesome rugby player. I thought his All Black career would last longer than it did, but boy, what an impact he made in international rugby. He scored a staggering 46 test tries in 68 tests for the All Blacks and plenty more for the the Blues in Super Rugby before moving […]

David Campese – The Wizard of Oz

Like Danie Gerber, Jonah Lomu, Brian O’ Driscoll and Jonny Wilkinson, David Campese is a once in a lifetime player. Some fans will say his form over the years has been erratic, but I don’t agree. He was a genius who pushed the boundaries and always tried something new on attack. Sometimes it worked (the […]
