About George Kruis

George Edward John Kruis (born 22 February 1990) is a professional rugby union player for England and Saracens in the Aviva Premiership.

He was born in Guildford, Surrey and was educated at Belmont Preparatory School, and St John's School, Leatherhead. He played all of his youth rugby for Dorking RFC.

His primary position is as a second row, but he is also able to play at blindside flanker or at number 8. He is almost always used as a jumper in the line-out due to his height and athleticism.

Kruis was eligible to play for the Netherlands as his father, Leo, is Dutch.
