PUMA® has unveiled a dramatic new Away kit that the Vodacom Bulls rugby team will sport in the Vodacom Super Rugby 2012 competition. The striking colour marks a significant image shift for the Vodacom Bulls and is inspired by the purple Jacaranda trees that characterise their hometown Pretoria.
Official Bulls Media Release
Vodacom Bulls captain Pierre Spies says: “PUMA have certainly changed the pace since their arrival at the Bulls and the team feels that our Away jersey, a complete contrast from our traditional kit, is a great way to celebrate a new partnership.”
The Away shirt, as with the home shirt launched in December 2011, has a dramatic “smash” design inspired by the phrase “bull in a china shop” and expresses the Vodacom Bulls’ powerful playing style. The complexity of the design, which combines a chevron-like effect, is designed to distract opposition players.
PUMA South Africa’s Marketing Director Brett Bellinger says: “In designing the new Away shirt PUMA wanted to create a statement on the field, so we have opted for a striking colourway inspired by the purple Jacaranda trees that are synonymous with Pretoria.”
PUMA has a long-term deal to supply full technical kit to both the Vodacom Blue Bulls and Vodacom Bulls rugby teams, and is the official distributor of the teams’ match replica gear.
The Vodacom Super Rugby replica away shirt will be available from 24 February 2012 and will retail for R599.

Now that the Bulls play in pink there are 10 things that will change….
1) One lucky season ticket holder will win a free make-over during half
time
of each match.
2) Fans will no longer be allowed to braai before kick-off, instead
fondue
stations will be available for snacks.
3) The beer tent will no longer sell beer, but a wide variety of fruity
drinks will be available.
4) The dancing girls will be replaced by a French poodle parade.
5) The man of the match will not receive a trophy, but rather a
subscription
to House and Home magazine.
6) The yellow card area will not be referred to as the sin bin, but will
now
be known as the now the temper tantrum tank.
7) The stadium will change from the Bull-Ring to the Fairy Garden or
from
Loftus to Moftus.
8) The new mascot will be Daisy the cow.
9) A booth will be provided to exchange those dangerous horned helmets
for
the more appropriate silk scarf.
10) Liefling will still be the unofficial song…
