No doubt these perenial bleaters will go on endlessly about how Meyer (who in their ignorant opinion is clueless) is the cause of these two players leaving. But oops Potty is not good enough for the Boks and Vermaak is in the Bok set up - and yet prefers to go having started one test for the Boks! Shows how much the Bok jersey means compared to the boodle in the bank bit oaks.

The lesson is always listen to what Beeno says. The other lesson is obviously for the egg magnet Meyer bashers. How much egg must land before they realise they are making complete twits of themselves! Hahahahahahahahhahhahahahahahahahaha

Ex Home page

The Bulls have confirmed the departure of flanker Dewald Potgieter and scrum-half Jano Vermaak to Japan and France respectively.

Potgieter decided not to renew his contract which expires at the end of the current Super Rugby campaign and will join the Yamaha Rugby Club in Japan, whilst Vermaak, who made his Springbok debut against Italy recently, has asked to be released from his contract to join Top 14 heavyweights, Toulouse.

Vermaak's request to leave after the completion of the Super Rugby tournament will be discussed by the Bulls, as his contract only expires at the end of October.

According to Xander Janse van Rensburg, the Bulls' high performance manager, Potgieter, who played in 58 Currie Cup, 63 Super Rugby matches and represented South Africa in six tests and two tour matches, decided to go overseas to experience a different lifestyle and culture.

"We had numerous talks with Jano and at one stage it looked successful, but he finally decided to accept the Toulouse offer," said Janse van Rensburg.

"We are very sad to lose these two players, as they have massive experience and are part of our leadership core, but one cannot compete with the exchange rate at the moment."(As I said oaks ALWAYS LISTEN TO BEENO - THE ONE WHO KNOWS!  BWAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA - exchangre rate is heading to R16 to 1 pound)

Meanwhile, the Bulls also announced that several other players have extended their contracts with the Pretoria-based franchise.

Current Springbok squad members Arno Botha and JJ Engelbrecht signed on till 2016 while Louis Fouchè, Hencus van Wyk, Jono Ross, Basil Short and Deon Stegmann have clinched deals until 2015 and Handrè Pollard to 2017.

A number of players currently playing for the Junior Springboks in France have also penned extensions.

Flanker Roelof Smit, prop Andrew Beerwinkel (That oak is pap)and lock Jannes Kirsten signed on till 2015, while current Junior Boks captain, Ruan Steenkamp, signed on till 2014.(All mediocre players? The only real point of intetest is who gets Jaque Du Plessis and perhaps Senatla)

"It is great to see the vote of confidence in the company and our structures and teams by so many leading players," Janse van Rensburg said.

Engelbrecht indicated that enjoyment as well as the drive to win tournaments made his decision an easy one.

"I am very happy in Pretoria, where a great work ethic and professional outlook is paramount," he said.

I feel I have developed so much as a player since joining the Bulls and want to keep on improving, something I know will happen here.

"The coaches here are brilliant and one can really develop as a player and as a person."

Hmmm JJ obviously is easily satisfied (Happy in Pretoria! - hahahahahaha)  and has not had R20 million dangled in front of him. Keep improving JJ and it will happen and then doubtless the Meyer bashers will find some way to link your departure to the Bok coach. But as I said some will stay - until that fateful moment oaks when boodle speaks loud and clear.

Dr Beeno revealing a deep understanding of the player drain problem  and the pathological psychosis of the Meyer bashers.

A very good LOL to you hakwa. Trust you are in better shape than ou brycy who is hanging on by a thread. I made the mistake of reminding him about the successive losses of the abs to the senior and junior Poms teams - a fate worse than death. Hahahahahahaha

that will be stored in our memory bank and brought up at the time of our choosing - say maybe during the haka in the 2015 RWC Final between the ABs and the Poms which the ABs will win of course!

Beeno What a bloody idiot you are - the two examples quoted by you - Vermaak and Potgieter - are no real examples of promising players departing. Both are questionable Super 15 players - especially Potgieter is a donkey like player - and Vermaak is dodgy on Super 15 level at best. Both got dodgy selections as Springboks - Vermaak especially got it because he had a Bulls contract, Reinach injured and Van Zyl in disfavour with the dolt coach of ours. Potgieter no doubt realizes that he has no real chance of ever playing for the Springboks again (despite is Bulls contract) and Vermaak also did not see him as a Springbok contract signee and has a dim international future. I would not cry overmuch about their departures - two very average and even questionable Super 15 players leaving is not the end of SA Rugby. It is when players like Stander (already left) and Labuschagne leave that I would really get worried.

Hakwa, ou maaaikie is running for cover. Everyone knows Vermaak had a great Super 15 and made the boks on merit having a very good debut.  Mike realises they have been over doing it blaming Meyer and hence the backtracking on the issue. Possibly even the exchange rate issue  is entering into his thinking.

Ou maaaikie you should have been really worried about player departures long, long ago - not getting really worried only when/if labbers departs. Anyhow there is a chance of you at some point getting up to speed!

Beeno What rugby did you watch this year? Vermaak was at best average and the better scrummies were Reinach and Van Zyl. So you are talking crap again. As to my worrying about losing players to foreign clubs - I have been worried about it for a long time. Le Roux was on the point of signing a foreign contract and that was averted because the idiotic coach called him to the Springbok camp - and due to injuries to the coach's favoured players - ended up in the team. If the likes of Kirchner and Taute were available the dolt would have picked them ahead of Le Roux. I mentioned Labuschagne - because although he is in the squad Meyer is dead set against playing him in any game - and that arrangement is not going to make Lappies any happier. He is bound to be a target for foreign clubs and even White may target him for the Brumbies - hence my worry about him.

Huh???

 

Vermaak has had a cracker of season so far.

 

He has definitely aided the Bulls and contributed greatly to where they find themselves now.

 

Not sure what rugby you've been watching but that's what I've seen. He deserves his Bok selection. Great pity his injury has forced him out of the mix.

 Seriously Mike CC and Beeno both have a point.

Vermaak deserved his spot this year, Reinach had a great start but faded out and then got hurt. van Zyl also had a good season, but he did not have the impact on his team that Vermaak had. 

You really could do well by looking at the actuall good things that Meyer has done by giving a bunch of younsters gametime, it could give some balance to the argument, but you are getting to the point where anyhting Meyer does you just shoot down as negative. Off course he will make mistakes. He is a human bieng. But hell man everything he does can't be that bad, seriously i call for some balance in your argument please.

Beenkop catch a wake up, Vermaak is 28 or so and hardly the Bok incumbent. He is off to make money at the end of his career - makes sense. Potgieter is not in the picture. The Brussouw case is very different

well ou maaikie I hope you take some posters  suggestions here and not come up with any more wrong assessments re Vermaak. Even ou CC knows the score on that one!!

If the jersey was of more interest to Vermaak than the boodle he would have continued here for another season.
As for Brussouw - snapster you are a revelation - the money wasnt the reason?  Perhaps like Stander he thought he was up against too many good loosies?  

Look I regret Brussouw going and so many of the rest - its really very sad. Decimating our rugby playing stocks. From the team I began picking re overseas players you can see the damage being done to the Boks and the Franchises. Man was it Meyers fault JP left??? Bekker??? Nonsense its the weakness of the rand and possibly the very long and hard playing loads. Boks in the squad are leaving. Youngsters like Stander who have every chance of playing for the Boks pull out. Louw went regardless. etc etc.

Why dont we see the same level of departures from NZ and OZ?
