description Joost van der Westhuizen Overview

Joost van der Westhuizen was a scrum-half who played with the heart of a lion. He was known for his explosive speed, his ability to score tries from anywhere, and his fearless defensive play. Joost was a key figure in South Africa's 1995 World Cup victory, famously tackling Jonah Lomu in the final. He was a complete scrum-half who could control the game, kick accurately, and break the line with his pace.

His legacy as one of the toughest and most talented players to ever wear the Springbok jersey is secure.
