Pretoria - The Bulls may be more relieved than anything else to have Springbok Marcel van der Merwe back ahead of this weekend’s crucial Super Rugby clash against the Cell C Sharks, but they know they’re in for a torrid time in the scrums.
The supersport.com website reports that way the Bulls have performed in the past few weeks in the setpiece has left much to be desired, and their injury woes in the front row are well publicised, but they know a repeat of their soft moments in the setpiece will see them again in the firing line this weekend.
There is no question that while it may be round three, the Bulls are in serious need of a victory, and to start digging themselves out of their own hole, they will need to beat one of the top sides in the competition.
