Ockert Kruger

A powerful loose forward, Ockert Kruger made his Super rugby debut with the Bulls in 2010 after strong performances in the Currie Cup and Vodacom Cup in the previous season.

Kruger began his career at Loftus in 2006. Having represented the powerhouse region at the Under-18 Craven Week he then graduated into the Under-19 side the following year. his senior debut came in 2007, in the Vodacom Cup, and the rest, as they say is history.

Competing with world-class loose forwards for starting spots in the Bulls lineup, Kruger is tipped for big things in the future.
