The following from News24:-
"Pote Human was confirmed as head coach of the Bulls' Super Rugby team at a press conference in Pretoria on Tuesday.
Human, who had taken charge of the Blue Bulls in this year's Currie Cup, will take over the vacancy left by New Zealander John Mitchell, who has joined England as their defence coach.
The Pretoria-franchise also confirmed the appointment of Alan Zondagh as their director of rugby.
Zondagh, who signed a three-year deal at the Bulls, coached Eastern Province and Western Province in the 1990s before leaving for England where he coached London Scottish. He was also the Director of Rugby at Saracens and later fulfilled the same role at Boland. In recent years, he has run the Rugby Performance Centre (RPC) in Riebeek West in the Western Cape.
It's no secret that the Bulls were eager to appoint former Springbok lock Victor Matfield as head coach, but an agreement could not be reached between the two parties.
Southern Kings coach Deon Davids was also in the running but was not the preferred candidate."
I think the fact is that the Remgrow Subsidiary - who has a 50% share in Bulls Rugby accepted Human as coach - but their insistence that Alan Zondagh serve as well was always a requirement. Zondagh signed a three year contract with the Bulls as their Director of Rugby.
Another interesting point is that Erasmus and Zondagh previously worked together t the Stormers and ther is no doubt going to be a close association between the two.
It is surprising that Mozart and his confidence trickster associates did not jump onto Erasmus for stating that he accepted his appointment as SARU Director of Rugby and was not supposed to be both Director of Rugby and the Chief Coach of the Springboks at the same time. The agreement with SARU apparently was that Erasmus will carry the Coach role until the WC next year - after which the two jobs will be separated and a new Chief Coach for the springboks will have to be appointed.
