Pierre Spies Blue Bulls & South African Rugby Player
Pierre Spies is one of the best athletes to come out of South Africa, he is one of the biggest and yet fastest no.8’s in Rugby. He made his debut for the South African national rugby team the Springboks at the tender age of 21. He is a gifted athlete in many sports to say the least:
- He was the under 20’s discus champion in 2003 during his final year of high school
- Ranked 3rd in the country for short-put
- And he ran the 100m sprint in 10.7 seconds
This gifted athlete has accomplished a lot in a short while in his sporting career. It is hard to believe that he is so fast considering the fact that he stands at 1.94cm tall and weighs 109kg. He is a powerful no.8 ( or wing when needed) that is unstoppable at his best, he effortlessly tears through opposition that is why he now holds the springbok record for the most tries at no.8. He has managed to build massive muscle and size and maintain his fast pace at the same time, if that is not functional muscle then I don’t know what is.
