Bryan Habana has signed for Western Province in a move that has sent shockwaves through South African rugby circles. The speedster has bucked the trend of Boks who have signed for lucrative deals at overseas clubs. Province coach Rassie Erasmus states “We could have spent the money on youth development, but we decided to pump all our money into a deal for Habana”.
CEO of Western Province Stoffiel Van Makersville added “We have had success in the past in signing established stars, do you remember when we signed Small, Muir, Skinstad and Stransky from the Sharks. Yes it’s correct we never won anything, but I urge you to look at who are the real winners.
On his move Habana blasted “ It aint about the money, I’ve been a world cup winner, two times super 14 winner, Currie Cup winner and Tri-Nations winner, I now want to feel what it is like to be a loser. When you are a loser you find out what type of character you really are”
