[QUOTE="Bullitt, post: 300656"] [url="http://www.planetrugby.com/story/0,25883,3551_5889908,00.html"]http://www.planetrugby.com/story/0,25883,3...5889908,00.html[/url] South Africa's rugby community is in mourning after Ruben Kruger, a member of the 1995 World Cup-winning side, died of cancer on Wednesday. Kruger had been battling the disease for ten years since a tumour was discovered in 2000, and had operations to remove tumours in 2007 and 2009 as well. The 36-Test Bok is generally regarded as one of the best flankers the Boks have Bulls ever had, and was named South African Player of the Year in 1995. "Apart from his rugby playing abilities, he has been a superb human being and everyone that knew him will surely miss him in the months and years to come," the Blue Bulls said in a statement on Thursday. "In times like these we need one another and we trust that the Lord will comfort his family in a way that only He can." [/QUOTE]
