Thomas Joubert du Toit (born 5 May 1995) is a South African rugby union player for the South Africa national team and Bath Rugby in the Gallagher Premiership. His regular position is prop. His nickname is The Tank.
With no prior first class rugby behind his name, Du Toit was a surprise inclusion in the Sharks squad for the 2014 Super Rugby season. Still finding himself behind the likes of Tendai Mtawarira in the pecking order, however, he dropped down to the Sharks XV squad for the 2014 Vodacom Cup season. He made his senior debut on 7 March 2014, against the Border Bulldogs in East London. He came on as a half-time substitute and scored his first senior try just 15 minutes after coming on. His first start came three weeks later against the Free State XV in Bloemfontein.
On 4 October 2016, it was announced that Du Toit would be joining Irish Pro14 side Munster on a three-month contract, following the completion of his Currie Cup commitments. On 26 November 2016, Du Toit made his competitive debut for Munster when he came on as a replacement in the sides 46–3 win against Benetton in a 2016–17 Pro12 fixture at Thomond Park.
On the 22nd of March 2023 Du Toit signed for English Premiership Rugby side Bath Rugby. Du Toit will officially join the team once the 2023 Rugby World Cup ends and he comes back from playing for South Africa. He will most likely make his debut in November 2023.
