Cameron Hanekom, despite a few handling errors, shone for the Bulls in their 33-32 United Rugby Championship victory over the Stormers. Hanekom's performance, including a standout opening kickoff run, earned him the Player of the Match award and furthered his claim for the Springbok No 8 jersey.
Cameron Hanekom frustrated by ‘stupid errors’, but happy to help Bulls over the line against Stormer s
The 22-year-old from Ceres somehow made his way through four defenders as he spun around and then raced over the halfway line to immediately put the Bulls on the front foot. “I must say, I was a bit frustrated with myself... stupid errors that I made. It’s like small tweaks I can make in my game to just improve as a player, and get better for the team – some kicks I should’ve caught,” Hanekom told“But at the end of the day, it’s a collective thing at the moment. Without the players next to me, I would never have the confidence to go and try to get through the line.
Bulls coach Jake White praised Hanekom’s display. “Especially from the first kick-off... That is like a statement. Everyone knows he can carry and how good he is, and it reminded me a bit of Nick Koster, when he was at Bishops.
