The Vodacom Bulls have boosted their front-row stocks by securing the signing of former Lions loosehead prop Dylan Smith on a long-term deal.
The 28-year-old has signed a three-year contract, which will begin on 1 July through to the end of June 2025.
Smith is a product of King Edward VII School in Johannesburg and played his junior rugby for the Golden Lions. He went on to represent the Lions in the Currie Cup and made more than 50 Super Rugby appearances. Last year, Smith headed overseas where he joined French club Stade Francais as a medical joker in the Top 14, before helping English side Ealing Trailfinders win the Championship this season.
“To be able to secure the services of a quality front rower like Dylan Smith is massive for us at the Bulls,” said Bulls director of rugby Jake White. “Dylan is arguably one of the most talented props in South Africa. We have no doubt that he will contribute massively to the Bulls’ ambitions of continuing to grow to become one of the most competitive sides globally. We look forward to welcoming him to Loftus Versfeld and seeing him in the blue jumper.”
