Sharpshooter: Battle of the Steyns

Published on

After kicking Joel Stransky to the curb, Frans Steyn now comes up against Morne Steyn to crown the most clutch Springbok goal-kicker.

Frans Steyn beat Stransky with 64% of the vote to maintain his winning streak and earn a spot in the Sharpshooter decider. Steyn previously saw off competition from Werner Greeff, Jannie de Beer and Pat Lambie.

Frans Steyn now faces an old teammate in Morne Steyn, who scored 742 points in 68 matches for the Springboks and is no stranger to slotting off a clutch kick.

With the clock ticking into overtime and the score at 25-25, Morne Steyn stepped up with this 50m-plus penalty to clinch the 2009 British & Irish Lions series.
