Bio
Gurthro Steenkamp is a powerful loosehead prop, regarded as one of the best ball-carrying front row forwards in the game. He made his debut for the Boks in 2004 against Scotland and now has over 30 caps. He played in two matches at the 2007 World Cup. Steenkamp will join Toulouse after the tournament.
