Guess who's back to stir up the pitch? Kennedy Tsimba is set to spearhead the Bulls Legends as they prepare to lock horns with the Cheetahs Legends this Sunday in Bloemfontein. Tsimba, a name synonymous with Cheetahs rugby, will be donning the Bulls jersey alongside fellow former Free Staters, Tian Schoeman and Louis Fouche, in what promises to be a nostalgic showdown.
The trio, all master craftsmen of the flyhalf arts in their prime, are gearing up to revisit their glory days. It's not just about old rivalries; it's about rekindling the magic and camaraderie of the game. The match is set to serve as the appetizer for the Cheetahs' main dish against Georgia’s Black Lion later in the afternoon at the Toyota Stadium.
"It's the first of many such games aimed at keeping our legends tightly knit with the rugby community,"
noted Bulls President Willem Strauss. He expresses excitement about the new tradition, hoping it will keep the rugby flame alive among former stars.
The Bulls Legends roster is a who’s who of rugby notables, featuring the likes of Delarey du Preez, John Mametsa, and Bees Roux. With such a lineup, fans can expect a hefty dose of nostalgia mixed with fierce competitive spirit.
Bulls Legends Team: Forwards – Corne Fourie, Delarey du Preez, Bees Roux, Imille Keyser, Ian van Deventer, Birtie Powell, Louis van Biljon, Francois Uys, Mandla Mdaka, Jacques Roux, Sylvester Booysen, Hannes Ludick, Francois Robbertse, Rassie van Vuuren, Nico Luus. Backs – Kennedy Tsimba, Pieter Botha, Tian Schoeman, Henk de Ridder, John Mametsa, Louis Fouche, Len Olivier, Gido Horn, Juan Nel, Deon de Kock, Kobus Wiese, Anton Vlok, Franco Booysen.
So, whether you're a die-hard Bulls fan or a Cheetahs supporter, this Sunday offers a unique spectacle. It’s more than just a game; it’s a celebration of rugby heritage and a testament to the timeless allure of the sport. Strap in for a blast from the past where legends return to the battlefield to show they’ve still got it!
