Lood de Jager to join Vodacom Bulls
The Blue Bulls Company (Pty) Ltd on Tuesday confirmed that Lodewyk (Lood) de Jager has agreed terms with them and will join the Vodacom Bulls on November 1st, 2016 on a 12-month contract.
The SA Rugby Player of the Year for 2015 is currently playing his trade in Bloemfontein, where he has played in 40 matches for the Toyota Cheetahs in the Vodacom Super Rugby tournament thus far. The 23-year old also has 20 test matches for the Springboks to his credit.
Commenting on the signing, BBC High Performance Manager, Xander Janse van Rensburg, expressed his delight with the signing.
"This is great news for us, not only because Lood is one of the best locks in the world, but also the fact that he sees the Vodacom Bulls as a team that will enhance his career and ambitions. This is a compliment to what we are trying to achieve and a massive boost to our vision to build something special again in Pretoria," Janse van Rensburg said.
De Jager said he was keen to join the Vodacom Bulls, but still has unfinished business in Bloemfontein. "I am pretty excited about my future with the Vodacom Bulls and what they want to achieve in future. That said, I am still committed to the Cheetahs till the end of the season and will give my all in playing for them. They have been instrumental in the way my career developed and I want to thank them in the best way possible - by giving my all every time I take to the field for the Cheetahs.”

In elk geval. Welkom in die sukkelende Bulkraal Lood. Ons hoop jy gaan Etzebeth nog meer irriteer.
Nou wag ons vir nuus oor nuwe skrumskakel en losskakel.
Eintlik is dit 'n 5 maande kontrak, want hy gaan net superrugby 2017 vir ons speel.
En as hy in die begin van die seisoen beseer word ?
Met RG en Jenkins wat deurgekom het, is my grootste bekommernis nie daar nie.
Dit is diepte op vaskop, haker en veral skrummie en losskakel.
Hopelik kan ons Hougies terugbring en nog iewers 'n goeie ervare losskakel kry.
Solank ons aanhou om Ludeke rugby te speel kan ons hele All Blacks backline koop, gaan nogsteeds swak doen!!
AS ek BBRU was sou ek dalk eerder Lood se geld bele in ordentlike afrigters (s)!!
Kom ons kyk maar.
2 stutte
