Profile

Sir de Villiers Graff played twice for Western Province in a tournament run by WP in place of the Currie Cup in 1932-33. In the second game, against Rest of South Africa, he made 67. He was unfortunate not to play for the university while at Oxford but he did obtain a Blue at boxing. A barrister, he led South Africa's United Party for 21 years and was the leader of the opposition in parliament. In the war he was awarded an MBE and was captured at Tobruk.
