The Griqualand West Rugby Union announced on Monday it had appointed the experienced former Free State captain and former Blue Bulls coach Pote Human as head coach for the next three years.

Human takes over from Abre Minnie, who has led the men from Kimberley for this year’s Vodacom Cup and Currie Cup competitions.

Minnie was in the running for the position as head coach, but last week asked not to be considered for the job, citing personal reasons for his decision.

Human has vast experience as coach, heading the Griffons in 1996 and 1997 before coaching Shimlas and later the Blue Bulls. With him as head coach the Blue Bulls shared the Currie Cup in 2006 with the Free State Cheetahs, and he was part of the Bulls coaching staff that was crowned Super 14 champions in 2007.

He also had a two year stint in Japan as assistant coach for Todd Louden’s Ricoh Black Rams.

I know lol love the interviews they used to have with him after a match with half of Bloemfontein running around him. He was a great bloke played his heart out every match then when its over will still be signing autographs after it. Free state staduim didnt had flood lights back then so it was getting dark and he will still be on the field.

That whole freestate team back then were a bunch of friendly blokes. Like Bloem was back then. I know crap always happen to my beloved WP there. They broke Calla Scholtz leg there and then one year we missed the final thx to a naked free state supporter tackling FC Smit lol It was illegal back then to enter the stadium without klippies lol

Then Natal decided to raid the Free State
