Springbok World Cup winner Sbu Nkosi quits Bulls after troubled season
JOHANNESBURG - Springbok 2019 Rugby World Cup winner Sibusiso Nkosi quit the Bulls on Monday after a troubled season with the Pretoria franchise.
After moving from Durban outfit Sharks, Nkosi disappeared from the Bulls camp last December, triggering a nationwide search.After treatment, the player admitted he had mental health challenges and scored three tries in four matches for the Bulls before falling out of favour. Bulls rugby director Jake White said recently that a change of environment might be best for Nkosi, and he has been linked with the Cape Town-based Stormers.
His 16 Test appearances included deputising for injured Cheslin Kolbe in a World Cup semi-final victory over Wales in Japan four years ago.
