Marius made his Bok debut at the 1995 Rugby World Cup against Romania. Hurter would also feature against Canada in the infamous Battle of Boet Erasmus but otherwise played more of a bit-part role in the Springboks’ campaign. Nevertheless he was a key part of Kitch Christie, Andre Markgraaff and Carel Du Plessis’ Springbok squads during his three seasons in the famous green and gold. Marius does not hold back as he talks about everything that happened in a memorable era for Springbok rugby.
