Pedrie Johannes Wannenburg, who is from South-Western Districts, recently won an award as South Africa's 'Most Promising Player of the Year'. At 21, he richly deserved the accolade and celebrated with a first cap as a replacement against France a fortnight ago, having, signed a long-term contract with the Bulls. His consistant displays in Super 12, Under 21s and Currie Cup rugby won him tour selection, along with his ability to wear the number six, seven or eight jersey with equal aplomb.
