Notes
Quotes from Forwards Coach, Brad Macleod-Henderson:
“It’s going to be another tough game against the Bulls away from home, they’ll be desperate to keep their hopes alive of qualifying for the play-offs… Last week, they would have known that they needed three wins to get a semi-final place, and they played a fantastic game against Griquas to get the result they did. That will give them a lot of confidence, they have quite a few young guys in their squad and some previous results hadn’t gone their way, so last weekend’s win would have given them a big boost.”
Quotes from Backline Coach, Sean Everitt:
“The Bulls put in an incredible performance against Griquas on the weekend. No-one else has been able to put that kind of score on them this year, and in Kimberley, Griquas are difficult so the Bulls were really good and we’ll have to be at our best at Loftus on Friday.”
