Bulls Target URC Rebound in Edinburgh After Pau Win

Ackermann demands an 80-minute, disciplined display to convert relief into momentum.

Overview

  • The Bulls snapped a seven-match losing run with a 26-24 away win at Pau, who had previously lost only once at home this season.
  • The result booked a Champions Cup Round of 16 trip to Glasgow in early April, while the next two months are devoted to the URC with a three-week February break.
  • Edinburgh host the Bulls on Friday at Hive Stadium, where the Scottish side have maintained an unbeaten record this season.
  • Coach Johan Ackermann highlights the need to cut penalties and unforced errors, balance kicking and running, and sustain accuracy for longer periods.
  • Edinburgh make seven changes and recall Duhan van der Merwe and other experienced players, with the teams separated by a single point in the URC standings.
