Super Rugby Preview: Bulls

The Bulls

Last season saw the Bulls head into the competition with their new coach Nollis Marais, they got their season off to the worst possible start by losing to their South rivals, The Stormers, by 33 points to 9. They would go on to finish the season in an unimpressive 7^th place overall.

The fans will be looking forward to having their stalwart fly-half, Handre Pollard, along with a host of promising youngsters like Warwick Gelant and Roelof Smit.

The Bulls start their Super Rugby 2017 campaign against The Stormers at Newlands on 25 February.
