Marius JoubertMarius Joubert (born 10 July 1979 in Paarl) is a South African rugby player who plays for Western Province in the Currie Cup, the Stormers in Super 12, and internationally for the Springboks. A hard-hitting, fast-paced centre, Joubert was schooled at the illustrous nursery of many a future Springbok, Paarl Gimnasium, alongside current teammates De Wet Barry and Jean de Villiers. Marius made his debut for South Africa against New Zealand in 2001, and despite several injury setbacks (one of which kept him out of the 2003 World Cup), continues to develop into a world-class centre. He was a member of the 2004 Springbok squad that won the Tri-Nations. In the Boks' home match at Ellis Park in Johannesburg against the All Blacks, he became only the second Springbok in history (after Roy Mordt in 1981) to score a hat-trick of tries against the All Blacks. Joubert is also South Africa's all-time leading try scorer in Tri Nations play, with a total of six. External links Joubert, Marius Joubert, Marius
