Overview
- Paarl Boys’ High confirmed Neil de Bruin’s move, with the former director of rugby set to run the Bulls’ attack and backs.
- De Bruin said he has already identified areas to address and expects a seamless fit given prior work with Johan Ackermann and defence coach Jean Tiedt.
- Andries Bekker and Chris Rossouw were dismissed earlier in the week following five consecutive defeats under Ackermann.
- Ackermann will take direct responsibility for the forwards as part of the reshaped set-up.
- According to reports, the Bulls will use SA Rugby’s Mobi‑Unit, with Duane Vermeulen and Felix Jones linked to mentorship roles, and Tiedt expected to remain with added consultant support.
