Springbok scrumhalf Cobus Reinach says the magnitude of the north–south rivalry has quickly become clear to him as the Stormers prepare to host the Bulls at DHL Stadium on Saturday evening.
The Lions are under no illusions as to the challenge that awaits them when they travel to Durban for their United Rugby Championship clash against the Sharks.
The Sharks have named three changes to their starting XV for Saturday's United Rugby Championship (URC) Round Nine clash against the Lions at Hollywoodbets Kings Park in Durban.
The Bulls are set to benefit from some invaluable Springbok coaching experience in the coming weeks.
Fullback Aphelele Fassi says that all the success the Springboks are having is driving them to achieve more, rather than creating a risk that their standards might slip.
Young flyhalf Kade Wolhuter is positive of mounting a comeback following another severe injury during the Bulls’ Champions Cup loss to the Northampton Saints.
