Bissie: Steyn simply the best

Cape Town - Sharks captain Bismarck du Plessis believes team-mate Frans Steyn is the best rugby player he has ever played with.

Steyn had to move to flyhalf in the Sharks' Super Rugby clash against the Lions at Ellis Park last Saturday after Fred Zeilinga was forced off with a hamstring injury.

The Springbok had a stellar game, helping the Sharks to a 25-12 win.

In the post match interview, Du Plessis labelled Steyn as the best player he's ever played with.

It was not clear whether Du Plessis was referring to Steyn's cannon-boot which turned the course of the game with two massive penalties in the second half, or Steyn’s general play, but it was nevertheless high praise...
