Lood leads attacking revolution

Issue 256 Issue 256
Published on February 18, 2019 | Leave a response

Vodacom Bulls captain Lood de Jager is on the cover of the new SA Rugby magazine, on sale this week!

De Jager was having a brilliant 2018 season for the Bulls before being struck down by a pectoral injury in May.

At that stage, the second rower was the odds-on favourite to wear the Springbok No 5 jersey during the Test series against England in June. Instead, he was forced to watch the Boks on TV and keep himself occupied with a coaching role during the Currie Cup.

De Jager returned to action on the Boks’ end-of-year tour, coming off the bench twice, before scoring a memorable try for the Barbarians against Argentina at Twickenham.

In this issue of SA Rugby magazine, the 26-year-old talks candidly about dealing with the ‘dark times’, developing his skills and the competition at lock.

Also in this issue:

– Opinions are split over who should start at flyhalf for the Sharks, Robert du Preez or Curwin Bosch
