Springbok wing Sbu Nkosi was reportedly sent home early from the Bulls’ overseas tour for breaking team protocols.
According to Sunday newspaper Rapport, Nkosi was told by Jake White to return to SA after the 16-Test-capped speedster missed a team meeting in Ireland on Wednesday, 12 October.
Nkosi reportedly was late in rejoining the team, having had permission to visit a friend the day before.

The 26-year-old was not selected for the Bulls’ 44-22 win over Benetton in the United Rugby Championship on Friday, and White provided no explanation for his omission when announcing the matchday 23 last week.
It is understood Nkosi, who joined the Bulls from the Sharks ahead of the 2022-23 season, has since apologised for his actions.
