Official Blue Bulls Media Release

The 25 year old international joined the Vodacom Bulls last season and immediately proved his worth, topping the season’s try scoring list for the Vodacom Bulls in Super Rugby and the Vodacom Blue Bulls in the Currie Cup.

In 2012, Basson already dotted down five times in seven matches.

The speedster indicated that he has settled down nicely in Pretoria and that he is ready to help the Bulls challenge for higher honours.

“There are no limits to what this team can achieve and I want to be part of that drive towards excellence,” Basson said.

“We have great structures, coaches and players at the Bulls and I am grateful to be part of such a team environment. On a personal level I have set out definite goals in my career and I believe that the Bulls will be the best vehicle to help me achieve that.”

Vodacom Bulls coach Frans Ludeke expressed gratitude on the decision.

“Bjorn is most sought after because of his brilliant try scoring feats and uncanny ability in the air. It is great to have him staying on as part of our vision is to have a squad with world class players. With him staying, it means that we are one step closer to that goal.”
