Published on December 3, 2019

Handre Pollard was given a perfect send-off after being named as the Vodacom Bulls and Blue Bulls Player of the Year for 2019.

Pollard has joined French club Montpellier after helping the Boks win both the Rugby Championship and World Cup this year, scoring 69 points at the showpiece in Japan.

The flyhalf was recognised for his efforts with the Bulls as he finished his seven-year stay in Pretoria by helping the team to the Super Rugby quarter-finals.

Bok No 8 Duane Vermeulen also had his Super Rugby efforts rewarded as he was named Super Rugby Player of the Year in his first season with the Bulls.

The Currie Cup and SuperSport Challenge Player of the Year awards were snapped up by Tim Agaba and Ruan Nortje, respectively, while Muller Uys and Richard Kriel were named the U21 and U19 Player of the Year.
