Orie returns to Loftus

Springbok lock Marvin Orie has signed with the Vodacom Bulls on a short-term deal.

 The 2023 World Cup winner, who is no stranger to the club, arrived from Union Sportive Arlequins Perpignanais at the beginning of July on a season-long deal, which begins with the Carling Currie Cup campaign.

Orie had previously earned 10 caps for the club before stints with the Lions [44], Ospreys [7], and the Stormers [42], before his French shift at Perpignanais where he amassed 29 caps in his two seasons in the Pyrénées-Orientales.
