The Vodacom Bulls have officially locked down one of their most physical assets as Cobus Wiese signs a three-year contract extension to remain at Loftus Versfeld.
The versatile forward was a high-priority target for rival franchises, with the Stormers reportedly making a significant play for his services to fill their own second-row gaps. Wiese has opted for stability in Pretoria, ensuring the engine room specialist stays part of the Herd through the 2029 season, according to official team communications.
The 28-year-old has become a cornerstone of the Bulls pack since returning to South Africa from Sale Sharks, proving his worth across both the lock and back-row positions.
“Cobus said ‘Stormers who?’ and signed on the dotted line till 2029. Family in Pretoria, brotherhood in the pack, and unfinished business at Loftus — this is why we love SA rugby. The engine room just got supercharged! 🚜💥” – Jay | JPS

His decision to stay is a major boost for coach Johan Ackermann as the side navigates the high-pressure business end of the United Rugby Championship and Champions Cup. Wiese recently emphasized that his choice was driven by family life in Pretoria and the brotherhood within the squad, as reported by SARugbyMag.
The hard-hitting forward has already earned two Springbok caps and remains firmly in the national selection frame due to his relentless work rate and scrummaging power.
Bulls supporters can breathe easy knowing the Loftus fortress remains intact with one of the most feared enforcers in the competition committed for the long haul.
