Playing career

Vogel played provincial rugby for the Free State. His only appearance in a test match was as a replacement in the second test against the 1974 touring Lions team of Willie John McBride at the Loftus Versfeld in Pretoria. Vogel replaced Dawie Snyman after 35 minutes in the second half, after Snyman himself replaced Ian McCallum 6 minutes earlier. Vogel played centre for the last five minutes of the test, with the starting centre, Jackie Snyman, moving to fullback. [2]
