PLAYER WRITE-UP
A no-nonsense loose forward, Wikus van Heerden was never flashy but rather a grinder who did the dirty work. He was a member of the RWC winning squad of 2007 and one of only two reserves that came onto the field in the Final against England. Van Heerden also played for the Bulls when they won their first-ever Vodacom Super Rugby title in 2007. His father, Moaner van Heerden, also played for the Springboks.
