The Greatest Bulls Super Rugby Team of All Time 

Trust me, as a Bulls fan, it was torture not picking Morne. I just liked how Pollard always played quite flat and I think he could unlock that backline a little better. Morne the better kicker by far

@@RealRugby Morne the far better kicker and leader and better tactician...Pollard the better player and faster and stronger

Sound

I will admit that during their period of dominance I had a love/hate relationship with Steyn. When he was switched on he was truly something else, but when he was having an off day, oooh boy! The other thing that irked me about Steyn was that he rarely had the range to kick out and instead of slowing the game down at crucial times he gave the opposition an attacking platform from broken play and the Bulls struggled to defend that at times. Pollard was really unlucky to come up at the bulls during a time we lost all of our legends and were rebuilding. He was hands down one of the very few absolute standout players at the Bulls during that time. He is a world class flyhalf and one of the GOAT players, evidence of his ability is clear as he's been a crucial part in the Boks setup for more than a decade now.

Agree 100%. The impact he had on the team's success was enormous.

Agreed M Steyn is a legend of rugby and one of the greatest fly halfs of all time and such a good leader and great at reading a game

Thanks Joey! Thanks for the support 🤟🏻

Not a bad idea...

It was really difficult to pick between certain players. Was impossible to pick between Steyn and Pollard, I just felt that Pollard could unlock that back line a little better than Steyn. Olivier is an all time legend at the Bulls, again,I might have been biased as I'm a huge Snyman fan. Both will do the job

Definitely agree with Morne and Wynand.

@@RealRugby agree with Wynand but I think Pollard edges past Steyn. So difficult though. I'm glad du Preez was picked. He's one of the best SH of all time

@@armandpretorius3378 Really wanted to pick Joost, but he always seemed to be injured during S12. The only real full seasons Joost played was in '96, '97, '01 and '03. Fourie did more in Super Rugby and was just brilliant

@Andre Pretorius there you go, problem solved!

Oh okay ...

@@teebrinner5939 what's the purpose of you here?

Wasted talent. Had so much potential. Pity the Boks didn't use him correctly. Could have been one of the best players in history.

Pierre Spies was an absolute beast and a weapon to say the least... was my favorite Springbok back then along with Habanna but sad he never really reached his potential in the Boks jersey

@@Saiyan4eva why didn't they play him between 11 to 15? He would've excelled there in my view.

@@HenryDube72 You mean for the Boks or Bulls??

@@sakabula1285 both even though I know the Springboks were filled with options.

@@HenryDube72 Probably just because of the power he brought to the scrums or his height in the line outs..another option as a jumper..Could even be just to have him more involved in the game rather than having him stand out on the wing

It's always subjective these types of things. I could have picked two players in each position. Records and titles aside, I just think Pollard was a more all round player. Steyn had a better team around him, but both deserve to be there

10 morne steyn

Why Habana ever went to the Stormers is still a mystery

@@sakabula1285 heres a clue. It rhymes with honey

@@joneh9483 Then he should have gone to Europe or Japan

@@joneh9483 Actually it wasn't for money. He earned a whack at the Bulls! He said he'd achieved everything at the Bulls including the Currie Cup (which eluded him in 2005, when he cost the Bulls the game at Loftus with a penalty almost on full time and the Cheetahs won...) so after he won all the trophy's at the Bulls he said he'd like to play where his own people live, the Coloured people in the Cape, because they'd also supported him. This interview with him was in the Pretoria News or Beeld at the time.

Alongside Richard Bands...Steenkamp one of my fav props ever

Agreed, he did more for the Bulls during his time. I reckon Pollard made the list based on recent World Cup fever.

Fair comment. Both brilliant players. I just felt that Pollard is a better attacking flyhalf and could do damage with those outside backs

@@RealRugby Morne has won 3/4*(if you count SR unlocked) super rugby titles and 3 Currie Cups......................Handre Pollard has not won a single trophy with the bulls, and even though I still think Pollard is a better player than Morne ever was, it is certainly hard to go against stats,

@@jln115 I hear you, but its a team sport. Morne played with one of the best provincial sides in history. The TEAM won those titles although Morne played a huge part. Pollard never had that amount of talent around him and still stood out head and shoulders in average Bulls teams. Again, they both probably deserve to be there, I just think Pollard is a better runner/distributor and although he doesn't hold all the records, he's probably the better all rounder between the two. That's why I picked him. Morne would have done the job as well though

Thanks Wayne, appreciate it. Drop me a mail with your contact details please - werner@realrugby.co.za

Thanks mate! I'm glad you like the content. There is plenty more to come. Thanks for the support!

These things are always subjective. It's just my opinion,but I reckon this team could have done some damage

Springboks should've went on to win the 2011 World Cup with the group of players.

@@HenryDube72 True but the Referee said "No this year" against Australia

@@xolamzimqhayi6796 Bryce Lawrence lol

Bulls won in 2010 as well but boks lost all 3 to NZ

@@HenryDube72 SA got smashed by NZ by 40 😂 SA was never gonna win it. Yous lost 😴

I like it!

It's in the works...

If they play at Loftus..Saders got no chance

@@sakabula1285 Saders got a pretty good record playing overseas this is why they are 10X Super rugby Champions and the most successful club team in history

@@Saiyan4eva True...but we did beat them at Loftus in that semi final in 2009...

@@Saiyan4eva No let there be no misunderstanding....Saders by far the best SR team

All great players. Could easily have picked two legends in each position

All great players. Was so difficult to choose between everyone over 20+ years. I could probably pick a "B" team that will beat this team...

Greatest try I’ve ever seen consider the quality of opposition... something really special .

Does winning titles make you a better player? Lomu, Culle, O' Driscoll and many other never won a World Cup, they must have been shit then...

When did Naas and Uli play Super Rugby for the Bulls?

Yeah, we've unearthed a couple of gems recently. You won't find that clip anywhere else. We are in the process of doing the most comprehensive Bryan Habana tribute on RU-vid

@@RealRugby my notifications are on 👊🏾

Also, as if no one cares, Snyman played for ages, not just 3years. The man was a F'n slaughter house when it came to defense, and off-fense he was flash him-slef. This vid is getting way too little traction in my opinion. These were the best days of modern rugby.

Only looked forward, came of a Crusader's hand, TMO looked at it for ages.

Then you must hate us now as well😉

Yup, many people feel that way, I have a different opinion

Joost het minder as 5 volledige seisoene Super Rugby gespeel omdat hy baie keer beseer was. Fourie het in 8 seisoene 3 keer Super Rugby gewen. Nie jags nie, ken net my rugby. Plus, opinies verskil. Wat maak jou reg en my verkeerd? Net jou opinie

I loved Wynand don't get me wrong he was one of my favorite players that time but i prefer the squad he chose here i mean the centers

Yes he did

Joost was no Fourie du Preez.

Already done!

At the time I made the video I had very strong feelings about this, but I am man enough to admit when I am wrong. I should update this and include Steyn

Yeah, it was a close call. I just thought Hougaard was a little bit more dynamic, but Akona was a fantastic finisher. We are almost done with a tribute to him, so watch this space :-)

RU-vid has a skip/forward functionality. You are welcome to skip past it

Yes, because Naas, Uli and Johan Heunis all played Super Rugby... I should have picked Frik du Preez, Thys Lourens and Mof Myburgh as well then

@@RealRugby I missed the "super" part as "super rugby tournament" only. In that case it's a good team, I will still replace Danie with either Dewalt Potgieter or Pedrie Wannenburg... I think he had some outings in 7.

Its just an opinion. I'm sure I'm allowed to think differently about a player than other people? Don't see anything outrageaous about it. I think Pollard is a better all round player and always stood out in average Bulls teams. Steyn was fantastic, but also played in the best Bulls sides. Outrageous would have been to pick Hougaard...

@@RealRugby Pollard is much better all-round player than Steyn, no question. But Morné has been more influential than Handre to me. Even Bakkies picked him in his dream team.

@@EllliotJackRussel1 cool, and that's how you see it. No issues with that 👍🏻

Watter jare het Johan Heunis, Naas Botha, Theuns Stofberg, Frik du Preez en Uli Schmidt Super Rugby gespeel?

Didn't realize Morne won the titles on his own? Jonah Lomu never won a World Cup, he must have been shit

@@RealRugby great clap back

15. Zane Kirchner (Roets 2.0) 14. Akona Ndugane/Bjorn Basson (either were unmatched under the high ball on the chase) 13. JP Nel (deadly on attack and a brick wall on defense) 12. Ettiene Botha 11. Bryan Habana 10. Mornè Steyn (Got all the trophies and records to back him up) 9. Fourie du Preez 8. Duane Vermeulen (the ruck inspector has got nothing on Thor) 7. Danie Rossouw 6. Ruben Kruger 5. Victor Matfield 4. RG Snyman (All round better player than bakkies and more disciplined) 3. Trevor Nyakane (skills over the ball and insane work rate off the ball) 2. Derick Kuun (Very underrated in his time) 1. Os du Randt (obviously)

Abre, jy hoef regtig nie saam te stem met enigiets wat ek op my kanaal sit nie, dis jou reg. Ek vind dit snaaks dat jy my keuses "puzzling" noem, maar jy kies 'n flank op haker... dis vir my bietjie ironies. Ek weet wat jy gaan sê - Kuun het baie games haker gespeel. Wel, Hougaard het baie games vleuel gespeel. Os du Randt het n halwe seisoen vir die Bulle gespeel, hy was n Vrystaat en Cats legend, nie een by die Bulle. Ek, is soos jy, my hele lewe lank n Bul supporter. Jou opinie tel so baie soos myne

@@RealRugby jy is baie defensief. Jy het jou opinie gegee met die video. Ek gee maar net myne. Kuun was hoofsaaklik ‘n haker en Hougaard is hoofsaaklik ‘n skrumskakel. Ek was ook net half ernstig oor Os. Ons kan hom mos claim as die stormers vir habana en mossie kan claim. 😉

@@Konst_Abel glad nie defensief nie, maar net saak gestel. Opinies verskil altyd en dis fine met my
