    About the player… A product of the famous Grey College in Bloemfontein, alongside teammates Ruan Pienaar, Andries Strauss and Francois Steyn, hooker Bismarck du Plessis has risen to prominence as one of the toughest hookers in the country. A dedicated and committed player who is back-up to the Springbok captain, had an outstanding Currie Cup tournament as first choice hooker in the absence of John Smit. His brother is the Cheetahs’ prop, Jannie.
