Bulls captain Johan Grobbelaar is looking forward to a Bulls team at near full-strength as they welcome back Springboks, including the mercurial Handre Pollard, into the squad.
The Bulls head to Ireland on Monday with 13 Springboks in their ranks for a three-week United Rugby Championship tour, where they face Ulster, Connacht and Glasgow.
With Handre Pollard, Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu and Manie Libbok all contending for the Springbok No. 10 position, South African rugby is in a healthy place.
Former Springbok coach Nick Mallett described how Handre Pollard guided the Boks to their most recent victory, but it's the blend with the other flyhalves that is key.
Springboks fly-half Handre Pollard believes recent law changes have significantly raised the stakes in aerial contests, adding a new level of intensity to one of the sport's most contested areas.
Springbok flyhalf Handre Pollard heaped praise on his teammates for fighting their way back from last week's heartbreaking defeat to a gritty win in Cape Town.
