Ruan Nortje says that there is nothing like playing in front of a sold-out Loftus Versfeld after signing a new Bulls' deal.

“My biggest highlight will always be playing in front of a packed Loftus; it has always been a special place for me and the crowd has always been a big motivation whenever we run out. It is exciting to think that I get to experience that over the next couple of seasons still,” he added. “I am so excited for the few years ahead, as mentioned earlier, the Vodacom Bulls have given me purpose and I will always strive to help the club do well. I look forward to having many more opportunities to play in our jersey and creating lasting memories with our incredible supporters,” Nortje said.
The 25-year-old Hudson Park High alumni is a Currie Cup winner and no stranger to the capital. He had a brief loan spell with the Vodacom Bulls under-21 side back in 2018 and now returns to join the herd permanently until July 2026.
