Bulls had their game breaking players on the bench for most of the SR season, Pollard would have never played for the Boks if it wasn't for U/20 champs to start with.. I don't understand if it is being loyal to the seniors or what.. But when Pollard, Bongi, Piet, Ulrich and other replacements got on to the field Bulls got much better every time.. And the next game they'd all be back to the bench! GIVE THE YOUNGSTERS A CHANCE!
Less said about JLP the better. Often you'd see the players didn't buy into the kick and chase strategy but JLP would just kick and it got them on the back-foot every time.. Once or twice we've heard Deon during interviews saying 'players are starting to believe in the structures we have', that was just it.. It's all backtracking at the Bulls, and change is all but necessary..
