Small-Smith opts to leave Bulls

Cape Town - Bulls centre William Small-Smith will further his career at the Cheetahs from next season, Netwerk24 reports.

The 23-year-old will represent the Blue Bulls in this year’s Currie Cup before heading for Bloemfontein in time for next year’s Super Rugby competition.

Small-Smith was schooled at Grey College in Bloemfontein where he represented Free State in the Craven Week.

After school, he represented teams like the Baby Boks, Blitzboks, Tuks and Blue Bulls.

It is believed that Small-Smith wanted out at the Bulls and asked to join the Cheetahs.

He is the fourth player who approached the Cheetahs in recent times.

Fred Zeilinga (Sharks, flyhalf), Sias Ebersohn (Western Force, flyhalf) and Neil Rautenbach (WP, hooker) all recently signed contracts with the Bloemfontein-franchise.

No! I think the smart thing to do is start again with a younger skipper ...

I'd keep Siya captain for now, but look to have someone else for 2027.
