Information About

Joel Stransky




Stransky was born in Pietermaritzburg , South Africa and educated at Maritzburg College where he was coached under Skonk Nicholson , a well-known figure in schoolboy rugby. Between 1993 and 1996 he gained 22 caps for his country.

In 1997 he moved to Leicester Tigers , where he would play for a couple of seasons and then become backs coach.

In the build up to the 1999 Rugby World Cup , it was suggested that he could play for England , but he discovered that he was not qualified to do so. He had also sustained a knee injury which made him unsuitable candidate at the time.

He later returned to South Africa, and is a rugby union television commentator.
