The Blue Bulls Company (Pty) Ltd would like to wish two players who suffered serious neck injuries this weekend, the best of luck with a speedy recovery. JD Schickerling and Dyllan Beneckhe both suffered the injuries on Saturday.
Schickerling was injured playing for the DHL Western Province Under-21 team against the Vodacom Blue Bulls at Loftus Versfeld. Beneckhe was injured playing for Tukkies Youth Club against Harlequins in a Under-16 league match.
Both players are being treated at the Little Company of Mary Hospital in Groenkloof, Pretoria.
The High Performance Manager at the BBC, Xander Janse van Rensburg, on Monday extended his good wishes to the players and their families. He has visited Schickerling in hospital and spoke to the parents of Beneckhe.
"Injuries are part and parcel of rugby, an unfortunate reality, and a neck injury is probably the worst thing that can happen to a player on the rugby field. We would like to wish the families of the two players and the players themselves all the best of luck as they make their way to a full recovery, furthermore we would like to assure them that they are in our thoughts and prayers," Janse van Rensburg said.
Vodacom Blue Bulls captain Deon Stegmann will also visit the hospital on Monday to visit the injured players.
Vodacom Bulls captain Pierre Spies on Twitter also requested rugby supporters to pray for the speedy recovery of the two players.
Hy reken ons is seker op koers om laaste te eindig

I have decided to be possitive go Frans go BULLS!!!!! If the loose the currie cup i will say you all where right, but if we win you all beter say sorry to the BBRU. There is a fire that was missing for the first games, but that smoke is turning to fire and if they are building like they did again the top team in the currie cup then NO team will be them in the finals!!!!!!!
What's the prognosis for Beneckhe?
JD en Nicolaas Janse van Rensburg was 'n uitstekende slotpaar by die o/20 wêreld toernooi.
Net jammer ek sien Frans wil nou van Nicolaas 'n flank maak - hel ons probleem is op slot en hy en Dennis Visser is van die beter organisers in die lynstane.

The gentleman doth protest too much, methinks..
We all feel for Ross but unfortunately he is being selected way above his ability - and the stats bear it out week in and week out.
Maybe he needs a rest - I dont know - but he has lost the support of the BB supporters. ( If we can assume this website is frequented by BB supporters.
Sounds like you arequite close to him - maybe you should convince him to take a sabbatical.
1) Lions (Home) - Die Lions behoort 4 punte te kry
2) EP (Away) - EP is nooit maklik in PE nie. Dink hulle gaan on edge in daai een
3) Sharks (Home) - Tough een maar Sharks behoort ons te vat net net
4) Cheetahs (Away) - Cheetahs sal 5 punte kry
5) Pumas (Away) - Pumas gaan ons ore aansit en maklik 5 punte kry
6) Griquas (Home) - 5 punte is n moet vir ons
Dit beteken 1 wen uit 6. Tensy miracles gebeur.
Maak liiewer plan en waai saam met Van Graan
Aan die res van die Bulle, sterk staan boys ons bly agter julle. Go make us proud! Onthou ons glo in julle!
This site was created for BB rugby supporters - positive and negative.
The article was about your nephew and JD - and all supporters wish them well.
Not quite sure what your gripe is - hopefully it made you feel better.
Apologies again.
HOU BY DIE BLOU MY VOLK!!!!!!!!!!!!!
jy bied meer genuanseerde opinie en dit is goed dat ons meer daarvan hoor as net "fire fire fire vir Frans" die heeltyd.
Dit is so dat spelers om verskeie redes waai. Nie almal wat waai maak noodwendig meer sukses van hul loopbane elders nie. Ons moet ongelukkig met die Euro kompeteer.
Maar ek dink tog jy gaan bietjie vinnig oor kontrkatering en spankeuses. Bongi Mbonambi is suiwer talent. Die Bulle verkies Visagie. Met Strauss hierheen oppad is Bongi nie kwaad omdat Strauss oppad is nie, Bongi is ongelukkig want nou is hy nr. 3 - hoogstens 3, want frans was taamlik ingenome met Maku.
Dit is wat my aan betref reuse oordeelsfout. Watch maar oor 'n jaar as Bongi teen sy ou soanmaats speel en Adriaan Strauss is meer beseer as fiks, en dan sit jy met Visagie en die Heer Maku. Ek sou eerder vir Bongi behou het en Visagie laat gaan het. Dink bietjie ook waar was Handre Pollard vroeer vanjaar - adjudant vir....Louis Fouche. Oordeelsfout. Ek en jy weet dit altwee.
Ervaring sê jy? Dean Greyling, Werner Kruger! Callie Visagie, Grant Hattingh, Paul Willemse, Deon Stegman, Jono Ross, Is al almal deur drie en meer Super vyftiens, Piet van Zyl, Jac Louis Potgieter, Akona Ndungane, Jurgens. Visser en Bjorn Basson is ook deur drie en meer. Dis nou jou CC spelers sonder die paar Bokke.
Hoe oud is die Vrystaat vanjaar, hoe oud is die WP span? Sharks? Leeus? Pumas? Griekwas? Almal gaan deur dieselfde prosesse. Ons het in 2009 laas in CC finaal kon SPEEL.
Dit lyk eerder vir my of die Bulle nie so goed respond op verandering nie.
Hoop dit gaan nog goed?
Ek hoop rerig vir n 0-50 vir die Leeus, want hoe meer loesing hoe beter die kanse dat die pievreters dalk sal gaan. Dit mag dalk baie lank vat maar sooner or later moet dit gebeur
Geniet die ruggas
