Thomas “The Tank” Du Toit

The Springbok tighthead, the broken grip strength machine, and a bag of homemade biltong. This one had it all. Thomas du Toit sits down with the boys to talk farm life, front row dark arts, Springbok test weeks, and what England can really expect when they rock up at Ellis Park in July.
