Another South African born Brumbies recruited for the 2013 Super Rugby season, Stephan Van Der Walt is a big physical outside back who would rather run over his opposition than around it.
After moving to Queensland from South Africa at the age of eight, Van Der Walt has made a name for himself in the Sunshine State as a powerful weapon in attack and solid defender. Primarily used as an outside centre or wing, Van Der Walt made his 1st Grade debut in Queensland alongside All Blacks Caleb Ralph and hasn’t looked back since.
Van Der Walt has signed a one-year deal with the Brumbies and occupies one of five EPS positions with the club.
