Steco PowerPlay: Willie le Roux has still got it.
Willie le Roux rolled back the years in Galway, delivering a moment of pure class that changed the tempo of a tightly contested clash between the Bulls and Connacht. He is Keo & Zels’ STECO PowerPlay of the week!
In the 20th minute, with the Bulls trailing and the Irish crowd in full voice, le Roux sparked a sweeping counter-attack. Fielding a high ball with calm precision, he accelerated into space, using his awareness and timing to leave Bundee Aki grasping at thin air. A sharp pass to Sebastian de Klerk down the left touchline opened the game wide. But le Roux wasn’t done — he tracked the play beautifully and received the return pass to finish what he started.
It was intelligent rugby. Efficient, effective, and above all, powerful in its impact.
For that, Willie le Roux earns this week’s STECO PowerPlay of the Week.
