The cheetahs flyhalf a 19 year star who has exploded onto the Super rugby scene. Making his debut in the 2012 season due to the injury of regular flyhalf Sias Ebersohn. He has made a huge impact on the Cheetahs team, with a near perfect kicking record and being able to slot them from almost 60 metres away, he gives a huge advantage to his team. It is not only his kicking ability that makes him good, his ability to carry the ball into contact and to break over the advantage line or even break tackles. These atributes make him the complete flyhalf. He has also recently reached 100 points in this season so far. He has recently picked up a shoulder injury, hopefully he can recover and perform the rest of the season. Could he stand a chance for a Springbok place due to the poor performances thus far from the likes of Morne Steyn and Co.
