Cross seas, mountains or deserts with the new Reef Stripe Hoodie. Pollard to start for Under-21’s
Highly rated flyhalf Handrè Pollard will make a first start for the Vodacom Blue Bulls Under-21 team for Friday's crucial Absa Under-21 Provincial Championship match against the Toyota Free State.
Pollard has just recovered from a shoulder injury and will replace Kobus Marais, who drops back to the Under-19 side.
Coach Nollis Marais made only one more change, where Justin Forwood comes onto the bench in place of Du Toit Genis at prop.
The Vodacom Blue Bulls are just one point behind log leaders, The Sharks Under-21's and have the same number of log points as the Cheetahs, who also won three out of four matches so far this season.
"We have good momentum and I hope we can sustain that against an opponent of real quality," Marais said. "The team adapted well after losing four players to the Currie Cup side and some to injury and I am looking forward to a more settled effort on Friday. Handrè is a quality player and I am sure he will make a telling contribution," Marais said. The team to play Free State is: Jesse Kriel, Jade Stighling, Dries Swanepoel (v/c), Burger Odendaal, Jermaine Kleinsmith, Handrè Pollard, Rudi van Rooyen, Clyde Davids, Nardus van der Walt, Shaun Adendorff, Dennis Visser, Jannes Kirsten, Hencus van Wyk, Jaco Visagie (c), Andrew Beerwinkel. Replacements: Jason Thomas, Justin Forwood, Irne Herbst, Roelof Smit, Kefentse Mahlo, Malcolm Theo, Christopher Bosch.
basterbul ] ek stem volkome saam met jou kan die coaches nie almal speel tyd gee om dan te bepaal en sien wie is die beter spelers nie, lyk vir my van die beter spelers sit maar op paviljoen en kyk, of soos ander blogger gese het, die pa van daai goeie speler het nie "ge-sponsor" nie

@29 :Paul Anthony on his way to the Sharks?? Does this explain why we had so many players in the SA u/20 team - even when they did not go to the trial matches? (Venter was part of the u/20s staff) I know this sounds negative, but some of our young guys did not impress at all at JWC - and still doesn't....

Met al die talent hier moet die jong manne besig gehou word - almal kry nie speelkans nie en ek kan net dink hoe kriewelrig almal raak en daarom skuif hulle - weet van 'n paar baie goeie spelers wat 2 jaar terug nog op skool was wat se lus vir die spel verdwyn het. as gevolg van geen game time!

@ 31 Stem Ryno was in n ander klas as Pollard in daai game. Moet ook se dat Pollard nie die beste CW gehad het nie. Ek weet Ryno is wp toe maar sien nie sy naam in enige o/19, o/21 of CC squad nie. Pollard moet hom nog bewys op senior vlak. Hy het slegs n paar goeie games gehad die jaar. Baie swak besluitneming in die Vodacom Kwarteind het die bulle die game gekos. Ek dink die bulle wil hom ryp druk en dit gaan nie werk nie. Dis baie goed dat hy eers weer sy voete vind by die o/21. Posted by Wolf Pack on 14 August 2013 10:09
In 2012 CW het Ryno Eksteen vir Pollard totaal oorskadu in die BB vs WP game. Hy (10), Rohan (12) en Jurie Linde(13) het die wp en al die ander spanne aan flarde gehardloop.Ek weet Eksteen is wp toe en dit sal interresant wees om te sien hoe vaar hy in die wp se junior spanne. Ek het nog nie enige junior games op TV gesien nie, maar het enige van julle hom al gesien speel?

@ Muzi, Kobus Marais did played CW for Limpopo BB in 2011. As you have said. Ryno Eksteen played CW in 2012 and Kobus AC week. Tell me were is Eksteen today. But to be honest. CW should not count that much because if you big and tall you get picked. Look at the stats. How many CW players make it after school. The BB 2008 CW side, only about 4 out of the 22 still play provincial rugby. Please give the stats of the last 5 years. You seems to be a schoolboy expert. Stander must still prove himself. I agree Pollard should play 10 and must still proof that he can be as good as in the 2012 JWC. Bad year so far.

Gaan nie juis my oe uit huil omrede Paul Anthony Sharks toe gaan nie. Met die dat ons omtrent die hele SA Skole span koop moet ons elke jaar die 0 19 kompetisie wen maar dit gebeur nie. Miskien tyd geword om Naas Botha nader te trek. Hy doen goed met Waterkloof en hy het hoeka gese hy wil by die skole begin en deur die ranks gaan.

@24, F Steyn is juis 'n voorbeeld van om iemand nie uit posisie te speel nie en dalk te vroeg begin nie. Waar hy veronderstel was om op 27 op die kruin van sy loopbaan te wees, is hy basies oor die muur. Vir iemand wat soveel belofte getoon het vroeg in sy loopbaan is dit hartseer dat hy dit nooit kon verwesenlik nie. Ditto lambie en ook Brent Russel.Pollard het nie 'n baie goeie JWC gehad nie en het ook nie sy stempel in die VC afgedruk soos wat mens verwag het nie. Was dit omdat hy senter gespeel het?? Sou F steyn en Lambie en Russel beter spelers gewees het as hulle op 1 posisie kon konsentreer?? Mens sal seker nooit regtig weet nie.Verder moet mens in gedagte hou dat ons regtig 'n oorvloed goeie senters het, eintlik briljante senters, terwyl ons bietjie dun is op 10. Fouche het my nog nooit beindruk nie en na saterdag se spel van Marnitz Boshoff is ek nog meer de moer in dat hy laat gaan is t.g.v. Fouche.

@26. Wou ook sê, my geheue dit is amptelik aangekondig 'n paar blogs gelede.

Post 20: Jy is presies reg met die kontraktering. Ek weet nie wat rook bul perd nie? Daar is n draad ("thread" NIE "WIRE" NIE) vroeer.

@WolfPackPity you don't follow a lot of schoolboy rugby Border omitted Stander and JP Smith from the Craven Week because they signed for the Bulls....go to this link and you will what on earth I'm talking about.....http://www.saschoolsports.co.za/rugby/the-eastern-cape/rugby-jp-smith-josh-stander-queens-1-2-back-duo.html.Without a doubt academy week representative Kobus Marais is a talented player answer this for me please....why didn't he make craven week?As far as I know he was impressive for Waterkloof unfortunately Affies Ryno Eksteen was the best 10 in Pretoria last year!Pollard needs to play 10 IMHO he's the complete package typical a young player has a rough patch suddenly we write him off Lol....mark my words Pollard will unseat Fouche and Tony.

#10 Muzi Just because Meyer identified Stander as a young prospect as a 16-year-old doesn’t mean he will be good at senior level, Why didn’t he played CW in 2012 injured and in 2013 injured. But he is class because meyer said so....he will be picked over Kobus Marais. This is Rubbish. Kobus got so much talent but will leave the bulls just because meyer said Stander...Pollard.....enough said. They must still prove them self. This is not school boy rugby. A good 10 is a good 12. Carter, Aaron Mauger, Gitu, Lealiifano, F Steyn and even M Steyn........Stop making excuses for pollard. If he is good enough he will adapt, especially at his young age . But I agree he must play 10.

Die Leeus koop deesdae so baie spelers uit pretoria dat dit voel asof ons weer in 1993 is. Jammer om te hoor van Willie.
Posted by Platbergbul on 14 August 2013 05:46
ek stem saam met Lekkerugby n paar ander spelers ook speel verkeerde spanne met hul ouderdom
Posted by bloukwart on 13 August 2013 21:36
coach Nollis jy kyk Ferdi Horn mis hy het so baie talent gee hom net speelkans dat hy himself kan bewys Posted by bloukwart on 13 August 2013 21:33
As die Bull op hierdie webwerf amptelike verklarings maak oor kontrkatering van spelers dan is dit amptelik. Dis al vier die kings spelers is geteken.Dis jammer ons verloor vir Wepener aan die begin vd CC seisoen. Hy was Saterdag baie goed. Maar ou kan Visgaie kans kry om sy ingooie te oefen :) Wonder net hoe dit ons skrumkrag gaan beinvloed. Posted by bloukaap2 on 13 August 2013 21:11
Dankie vir die inligting. Waardeer dit.

Ok so die ronloop storie was net snert gewees!
Posted by blouest on 13 August 2013 17:10
@14 Bandise Maku het geteken tot October 2016 by die Bulle en is dadelik beskikbaar.
Posted by Bloubul13 on 13 August 2013 17:08
Nie heeltemal sulke duidelike woorde oor Maku gesien nie, maar Jacques Engelbrecht se twitter is vol van die feit dat hy vir 3 jaar geteken het by die Bulle - selfs sy agent het dit becestig op twitter.
Posted by GeenBloutjieNetBlou on 13 August 2013 16:47
Kan iemand asb vir ons duidelikheid gee oor jacques engelbreght en badise maku? Dis nie lekker om met onduidelikheid rond te loop nie. ASB!!!!
Posted by Blou Brak on 13 August 2013 16:31
@11 dit hang af in watter maand hy verjaar.
Posted by blouest on 13 August 2013 16:20
Ek dink die afrigting span het die week baaaie goeie besluite gemaak. Pollard, die span vir vrydag en die feit dat die kings trio nog nie ingesluit is nie. Ja ja dis wat ons wil he maar weet ons altyd meer as die afrigters????/ NEE is die antwoord.Wat is die storie van Vleis en Maku wat nie amptlik gekoop is nie?
Posted by blouest on 13 August 2013 16:19
Hoe kan Rohan Janse van Rensburg vir die 0/19 speel as hy 1993 gebore is?
Posted by Lekke Rugby on 13 August 2013 16:16
@Wolf Pack....Lol....you would actually know what I'm talking about if you actually watched schoolboy rugby and Josh in 2012....Meyer even identified Stander as a young prospect as a 16-year-old....enough said.
Posted by Muzi on 13 August 2013 16:07
Hierdie is 'n goeie move deur Pollard eers op hierdie level weer sy voete te vind. As hulle Pollard se toekoms wil opmors - kies hom senter. Hy is 'n losskakel! Die Bulle het in elk geval nie nou nog senters nodig nie.Jammer Jacques Roussouw is nog beseer - hy is goed genoeg om volgende jaar Jurgen se understudy te wees - skop ook baie goed na die pale. Posted by Paarlbul on 13 August 2013 15:58
@ 2 Muzi, you rating Stander to high. he is more injured as what he plays. According to his stats on SA rugby he is a small guy.http://www.sarugby.net/playerprofile.aspx?id=42830&category=sarugby/juniorprovincial≤agueid=1424
Posted by Wolf Pack on 13 August 2013 14:38
Hierdie dink ek is een van die slimste besluite. Bring hom terug in sy ouderdom groep (eintlik steeds een bo sy ouderdom) Laat hom na 'n redelike lang aflê vertroue herwin. Gee hom selfs 2 weke op dié vlak en bring hom dan stadig in die CB. Hy moet mooi bestuur word. Daar is min Naas Botha's wat ook so jonk was,; in die diepkant ingegooi is en daar aangehou het en verder feitlik beseringvry sy loopbaan gedoen het
Posted by NETBLOU on 13 August 2013 14:29
I hope frans ludeke is watching....given proper opportunities big Marcel,Mellet and Frik can develop into better props than Dean and Werner.....it's simple those three players can scrum better...surely Pine knows what I'm talking about Lol!!!
Posted by Muzi on 13 August 2013 13:47
I'm sure Ulrich Beyers has been given another chance to impress bare in mind he's a full back. I think he's still got a lot to offer in that utility back position.Pine is just rewarding the young lads for their performance against WP.
Posted by Muzi on 13 August 2013 13:42
I've said this a lot of times....playing Handre Pollard at inside centre was a mistake from the Baby Boks,Bulls and Tukkies management....this is a good move let him gain some confidence with the under 21 side he hasn't played flyhalf on a consistent basis this year.Without a doubt I still believe he will bounce back remember he's still under 19 on form he's a class act IMHO the Bulls future pivot the lad can jol.Pity Joshua Stander has injured his knee....he's another great talent.
Posted by Muzi on 13 August 2013 13:36
Kort Pollard op die senior span se bench!
