No – this is not one of Rassie’s crazy rugby variations that somehow always seem to work…
In the days since 1994 we have had 7 Springbok Rugby players hit the magical 100 test match goal.
On Saturday 12 July 2025, Willie le Roux will become the 8th Springbok to hit this milestone when the Springboks meet Italy in their second test match of this season.
All through this week Willie has come in for praise from coaches, officials and players who all point out that he has a great and focused passion for the game that sometimes is mis-interpreted.
After Saturday this list will read as follows:
-
Willie le Roux Percy Montgomery – 102
- John Smit – 111
- Victor Matfield – 127
- Jean de Villiers – 109
- Bryan Habana – 124
- Tendai Mtawarira – 117
- Eben Etzebeth – 123
- Willie le Roux – 100
