Springbok wing Bryan Habana will be flying into Cape Town on Monday to meet Western Province senior professional coach Rassie Erasmus about a possible move to WP.


Habana’s father and agent Bernie told the Cape Times on Sunday night that his son would be meeting Erasmus and he would be seeing WP Rugby managing director Rob Wagner on Monday. Habana’s contract with the Blue Bulls ends on October 31 this year and he has yet to decide where he will play his rugby next year. “We have not received an offer from Western Province,” Bernie Habana said. “We are flying to Cape Town tomorrow morning. Bryan will be meeting Rassie and I will meet Rob Wagner.

“We have never offered Bryan’s services to anyone. Rassie phoned me a while back enquiring about Bryan, and this is how tomorrow’s meeting came about. Bryan didn’t even know about Western Province’s interest until today, when I told him we are going to Cape Town. He in fact asked me ‘What for?’ and I told him. So we will see what happens at the meeting tomorrow.”

Bernie Habana said that Bryan met with the Bulls on Sunday. “We met with the Blue Bulls yesterday and had a deep discussion about Bryan’s situation. We have given our price and it is now up to them to make Bryan an offer,” he said.
“The first prize would be for Bryan to stay in South Africa and that is what everyone wants. But he has to make up his mind on what he wants to do.”

Bernie said that his son enjoys coming to Cape Town. “Bryan loves the Cape. He has lots of friends there and has been there on holiday, but it is different when you have to live in a place,” he said. “He also doesn’t want to rush into any decision. He wants to go through all offers before deciding where he wants to play. “That is a good way of doing things. We have also told Bulls coach Frans Ludeke that we are going to Cape Town, so there are no secrets.”

 

At the moment, WP only have Tonderai Chavhanga and Sireli Naqelevuki as specialist wings.

    This Bernie caracter is a money shark and will advise Habs mainly based on that, I hope the Bulls dig intothe chest a bit. (it iss filled to the brim in any case)

    I believe Habana was in France a week ago.
    Is he shopping around or what?

  • 4

    @Pietman – Hey ou maat! I would do the same, one of these days his career will be over and he needs to be financially, in a good position.

  • 5

    @AB Bullsbok
    True.
    But I don’t think a move to WP is much of a career move, financially.
    If he wants to go for the bucks, he needs to look abroad.

    @Pietman – I think the Bulls will keep him like we did with Wynand, personally not very worried about this.

  • 7

    @AB Bullsbok
    Agreed.
    Can’t see him going to the Cape.
    What for?

    @Pietman – I found this on Keo;

    @Pietman – Het iemand al met Rangerman gepraat?

  • 11

    @AB Bullsbok
    Weet nie van Ranger nie.
    Dink Carol was op sy spoor n tyd terug.
    Maar die ouens sal binnekort in ieder geval almal weet.
    Ek sien veral uit om Tighthead hier te sien, kundige ou daai.

  • 12

    @Pietman – Ja ek stem, weet jy wanneer die blog gaan oopgaan?

  • 13

    Two men are out fishing and having a beer.

    Almost silently, so as not to scare the fish, Bob says, “I think I’m gonna divorce my wife. She hasn’t spoken to me in over two months.”

    Earl continues slowly sipping his beer then thoughtfully says, “You better think it over, Bob. Women like that are hard to find.”

    @AB – Whoops, niemand het vir my laat weet dat die nume site nog “hush hush”is.

    Dit is lekker om saam met “like minded people” te wees.

  • 21

    18@Loosehead – Helloooooo Loskop!

    Luister, jy is wonderlik welkom hier, maar ons het nog nie publiek gegaan nie… so hou maar net ons webadres van Voldy se site af vir eers, seblief mater.

    Ons het nog so paar Developments om te doen, soos die Advertensiespasie aan die kante… en paar ander goedjies.

    Hoe lyk die site vir jou ?

  • 22

    @Loosehead – Nee ek het lekker gelag, veral Rangerman se kommentaar oor GBS en Pietman en Facebook!

  • 23

    Hello again everyone.
    Nice to se you Loosehead!
    Now we only need Tighthead, hookers we have a plenty 🙂

  • 24

    22@AB – Wat het Rangerman gesê… ek gaan mossie meer daarnatoe nie….

  • 25

    @grootblousmile – En ekdink jy moet nou meer “alert”tablets sluk dat ons die ding kan klaar kry! 😉 Laat weet as daar iets is wat ek kan doen. Moet ek solank voelers uitsteek oor daai “prediction page” ??

  • 26

    @grootblousmile – Dankie GBS.
    My lips are sealed. Dit lyk nogal baie goed, veral dat ons kan sien wie online is.
    Dit is baie maklikker om te gebruik as tjarksworld, wat ook wordpress gebruik.

  • 27

    @Pietman – Hookers a plenty? Is Joost blogging already?

    Thanks for the e-mail, it is lekker to be “home”.

    #17 Loosehead: really?

    is it a secret place? if its only Piet and GBS then maybe they should stick to facebook? 😆

    seriously, they probably just needed a break.

  • 29

    @grootblousmile
    Ja, ek was ook lanklaas op Voldy, maar klink my ons name kom steeds op daar.
    Wonder hoekom?

    @AB

    Damn right we needed a break, as in a ‘prison break’ !
