Bulls bring in Pote Human as head coach

Editor

The Bulls have announced that Pote Human will take the head coach’s role for the upcoming Super Rugby campaign, replacing John Mitchell.

Mitchell left to become England’s defence coach, allowing Human, who had been in charge of the Blue Bulls during the Currie Cup, to take the reins.

Victor Matfield had been the preferred candidate, but the former second-row turned down the opportunity to become boss of the three-time Super Rugby winners.

The Pretoria outfit have also confirmed the appointment of Alan Zondagh as their new director of rugby after he signed a three-year deal.

Zondagh coached both Eastern and Western Province in the 1990s before departing for England and plying his trade at London Scottish and Saracens.
