Francois Louw (born 15 June 1985 in Cape Town) is a South African rugby union international who plays as a flanker. Louw is the grandson of the former South African international Jan Pickard.[1] He represents the Stormers in the Super 14, having made his debut during the 2008 season. He also plays for Western Province in the Currie Cup. Louw was part of the Stormers team that lost the 2010 Super 14 Final to the Bulls, he scored a try late in the game.[2] Following the Super 14 season, Louw made his debut for South Africa against Wales at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff. He played the entire game as South Africa won 34–31. Louw was selected for South Africa's next match in the mid-year tests, against France at his home ground, Newlands Stadium in Cape Town. Louw scored the last of five tries, helping South Africa to a 42–17 victory. After taking part in South Africa's victorious two match series against Italy, including a try in the first Test, Louw made his Tri Nations debut in July 2010. It was the first time Louw experienced defeat as a Springbok, with New Zealand winning the game 32–12.[3]
