Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Use South African English Шаблон:Infobox rugby union biography Deon André Fourie (born 25 September 1986) is a South African professional rugby union player who plays for Western Province in the South African Provincial Currie Cup competition. His regular playing positions are Hooker and Loose forward. He is known for his work rate and power at the rucks. He made history as the oldest Springbok debutant and became part of the squad that won the 2023 Rugby World Cup in France, playing 76 minutes in the final, which South Africa won.[1]
Fourie previously played for the Western Province provincial team and the Stormers Super Rugby team. Fourie captained Western Province to Currie Cup champions in 2012. He represented South Africa at 7s level internationally in 2007.
Fourie’s natural athletic ability was evident from a young age where he won two South African gymnastics titles while under the tutelage of his mother, Jeanette Fourie. He has attributed this early gymnastics training as one of the reasons he has been so successful as a fetcher in rugby union.
In April 2013, Fourie signed a deal that would have kept him in Cape Town until 2015.[2] However, he gained an early release from the contract to join French Top 14 side Шаблон:Rut prior to the 2014–15 Top 14 season.[3]
