Deon Stegmann is fit again, but for Johann Sadie the Vodacom Super Rugby season is over.

Sadie suffered a grade three ligament tear to his ankle and will be out of action for six weeks, Vodacom Bulls team doctor, Org Strauss, confirmed on Monday.

He will therefore miss the rest of the Super Rugby campaign.

Stegmann has been declared fit and available for the clash against the Sharks coming weekend after fully recovering from a broken arm.

Rossouw de Klerk is also back in training after sitting out for most of the season.

Bongi Mbonambi will be able to train in a week’s time, following an ankle strain.

Bjorn Basson, Dewald Potgieter, Dean Greyling, Flip van der Merwe, Jacques Potgieter and Pierre Spies will not train on Monday due to minor ailments, but will be back on the training pitch on Tuesday.

Lionel Cronjè (four weeks) and Fudge Mabeta (three months) remain long-term casualties.

    So “stronger, fitter, and mentally tougher” doesn’t exclude you from injuries? :whistling:

    I hope he gets better soon, good player. I hope they dont turn him into a crash ball donkey with the creativity coached right out of him.

    Way better with Stormers.
    Zee-Bulls sapped him.
