Bulls fans wonder why Pollard is rested
Cape Argus
|December 12, 2025
UNHAPPY Bulls fans are questioning why their star flyhalf, Handré Pollard, is being “rested” for their away Champions Cup match against Northampton, despite having barely played this season.
The Bulls named their tour squad for Saturday’s clash at Franklin’s Gardens, with Keegan Johannes and new signing from the Lions, Kade Wolhuter, the two flyhalves selected.
The omission of the two-time World Cup winner was attributed to “Springbok resting protocols”.
Supporters are growing restless after a difficult start to the campaign — the Bulls have lost four of their seven matches, including back-to-back defeats at Fortress Loftus.
