Career

He played at the 2008 Under–16 Grant Khomo Week and the Under–18 Craven Week for the Limpopo Blue Bulls before joining their parent club, the Blue Bulls. He played for them in the 2011 Under-19 Currie Cup and 2012 Under-21 Currie Cup competitions and was a regular starter throughout both competitions.

He made his senior debut for the Blue Bulls in the 2011 Vodacom Cup against the Border Bulldogs.[2] He didn't feature for the seniors again that season, or in 2012, but was included in the 2013 Vodacom Cup squad, where he made three starts before he was included on the Bulls squad for their 2013 Super Rugby season match against the Waratahs, coming on as a 53rd-minute substitute.[3]

In 2013, he signed a contract extension to keep him at the Blue Bulls until 2015.[4]
