One of the most exciting talents in South African rugby, Francois Hougaard’s star is on the rise. Having made an early move from Cape Town to Pretoria to join the Blue Bulls, the 20 year old has progressed through the ranks and held his own at both Senior Currie Cup and Super 14 level. Francois is widely viewed as the long term successor to Fourie du Preez at the back of the Bulls’ scrum.
