Rynard Jaco 'Ligtoring' Landman (born 24 July 1986) is a South African rugby union player. He usually plays as a lock and occasionally as a flanker.
Career
Landman played his youth rugby with the Template:Rut Leopards and that's where he began his senior rugby career. He played more than 40 games for the Potchefstroom-based side before joining the Template:Rut Boland Cavaliers in 2011. He only spent one season in Wellington before moving to the Template:Rut Griquas in 2012. Strong performances in the local Vodacom Cup and Currie Cup competitions allied to injuries to Martin Muller and Andries Ferreira saw him become an important member of the Template:Rut Cheetahs team that reached the play-offs in the 2013 Super Rugby season.[1][2]
Newport Gwent Dragons
Landman signed for Welsh side the Dragons on a three-year deal prior to the 2014–15 Pro12 season.[3]
