Bulls arrive in Cape Town, despite SA Rugby's silence

UPDATE: The Bulls have reportedly arrived in Cape Town to help provide some opposition for the Springboks this weekend.

According to a reliable source, The Bulls checked in at De Waal Sun hotel in Cape Town.

The hotel is also being used as a bio-bubble by the Stormers, who faces the British and Irish Lions on Saturday at Cape Town Stadium.

The Bulls' arrival in the Mother City fuels the speculation that they have arranged a match against the South Africa A team on Saturday.

The Springboks camp have been mum about Saturday's fixture against the Bulls - neither confirming nor denying the speculations.

However, a reliable source revealed the match between the Bulls and SA 'A'  is definitely happening

The encounter is scheduled to kick-off at 14.00 (local time) followed by the Stormers' fixture against the B&I Lions at Cape Town Stadium.

One thing is for sure, the Springboks players are in dire need of some game time and decent opposition ahead of their three-Test series against the British & Irish Lions which starts on July 24.

Thus far, the Springboks’ stars have only played one Test match against Georgia since the World Cup final in November 2019.

SA 'A' face the B&I Lions on Wednesday at the Cape Town Stadium.
