The way it is going for the Bulls at the moment, this is a positive move for them. Victor Matfield is set to join his old teammates again on the 1st of July 2008. His 6 month contract at Toulon comes to an end then (with the option to continue). He has however now signed with the Bulls till October 2011. His services will certainly come in handy for the struggling Bulls.

Matfield has been named the worlds most valuable player and has been part of the Springbok squad since 2001. Together with Bakkies Botha they have become the worlds best lock partnership.
