Juan Martin Hernandez
	BIOGRAPHY | GALLERY | GOSSIP

Juan Martín Hernández, born August 7th, 1982 in Buenos Aires, is an Argentine rugby union player who currently plays for the French club Stade Français and the Argentina national team.

Hernández is a "utility back" capable of playing fly-half, centre, or fullback, though he generally prefers fly half.

Hernández began his rugby career at the amateur club Deportiva Francesa in Buenos Aires. He made his test debut for los Pumas versus Paraguay on April 2003. Since then he has earned over 20 caps for his national team.

In 2003, Hernández moved to Paris to play professionally for Stade Français, one of the top clubs in France and Europe. He has seen much success with Stade Français; winning the domestic championship in 2004, as well as being runners-up in the domstic championship and the European Heineken Cup in 2005.

In 2006, Hernández was named fullback of the year. This award has coincided with many commentators calling Hernández the world's best fullback.

In 2007, Hernández has been nominated by the IRB as one of the five candidates for the 2007 International Player of the Year award.

In addition, Hernández has appeared in "Dieux du Stade Calendar", featuring sexy photographs of members of the Stade Français, which is used to attract a new audience to rugby matches (live and on TV), such as women and the gay community.
