Bath legend Michael Claassens acts as Schreuder’s financial adviser through his role at Player Management company, Wasserman Rugby, and was equally as pleased that the numbers added up in what could be his client’s final pro deal.
“He is my financial adviser, he’s taking a lot of commission on everything!” joked Schreuder, who played alongside Claassens for one Currie Cup season at the Sharks.
“He’s got me and Thomas (du Toit) and Juan Schoeman, so a few of the (ex)Sharks boys. He’s one of the best human beings I have ever met so I’m really happy to have him around. When I was making the move down from Newcastle he was one of the first person I spoke to about the club and he was very happy for me.”
