Wynand Olivier renewed his contract with the Blue Bulls Company and will be available for the Vodacom Bulls and Blue Bulls till the end of 2013.
Olivier’s signature follows on extensions signed by Springbok flanker Deon Stegmann, winger Gerhard van den Heever and midfielder Stefan Watermeyer earlier in the month.
The midfielder indicated that he considered offers from abroad, but confirmed his loyalty to the union he started representing as a school boy.
“We will be going through bit of a rebuilding phase next year, so I am keen to stick around and help to ease the transition. I am enjoying my rugby at the Bulls and wants to be part of a successful team as well,” Olivier said. Coach Frans Ludeke welcomed the news.
“He is a world class player and a Bulls player to the core. It is great to plan for the future knowing a proven champion like Wynand will be around.”
One can say what one wants about Wynand… and it is common ground that some people from other Provinces love to hate the man… but he’s been bloody good and loyal to the Bulls… and boasts almost every major medal in World Rugby.
Well done Wynand!
Form is temporary… class is permanent… as we are often reminded.
PS! Wynand….. less crash-ball please….. ek vra met trane in my oge, seun!
I know there have been a lot of criticism of W.Olivier, but he has done great things at the Bulls aswell.
I think he will find his form again and is happy that he is staying at the Bulls.
We need a good 13 urgently though !!!

Good to see some old fashioned South African loyalty. The Bulls will rely heavily on the experienced senior players to steady the ship in 2012.
