Well at least Jacques Nienaber’s defence comes out tops again. Suffocating.

Unfortunately, the only way the Bulls win this is if Leinster have a mare.


The Bulls have 2 options.


Turn this into a test match and grind away through the forwards. Possibly injure half the Leinster Pack in the process and half the boks in their ranks.


Or go in with nothing to lose and throw the ball around like maniacs. Which never works well for SA sides. Leinster’s defence is rock solid. And they can be patient and pick off scores off the bulls mistakes. Which were many against the Sharks. Leinster will punish them.


Despite the fact that I think Leinster will win easily - it’s going to be a fascinating match. Does Jake still have the ability to spring a surprise on Leinster through astute tactics? I’m not so sure.

Apparently not. The Bulls look hopeless. No answers.
