Andre Esterhuizen, who made his Springbok debut in 2018 and boasts a 2023 Rugby World Cup gold medal, is renowned for the power and pace he brings to the midfield, but he has also established himself as a quality hybrid player after being selected at flanker in 2025, which makes him an asset to the Bok team. Nicknamed “Andre the Giant”, he played for the Junior Springboks earlier in his career. His experience and leadership qualities will undoubtedly continue to add an extra dimension to the Springboks’ options.
