VIDEO: The legend that is inspiring Bulls utility back

The Bulls head to Durban with a single-minded purpose - beat the Challenge Cup champions and cement a spot in the top two of the United Rugby Championship.

In second place behind the defending champions, Munster, victory over the Sharks at Kings Park will ensure the Bulls finish first or second.

Utility back Keagan Johannes feels that the Bulls are 'peaking' at the right time of the season, despite some hiccups.

Rated No.1 on the URC's attack table, Johannes feels they have proven their ability to rack up points against and beat the best.

However, as Director of Rugby Jake White also said, they are still leaking too many tries.

"In the play-offs you can't afford to leak points," he told @rugby365com, adding: "We must prevent teams from scoring against us and it is an aspect we have worked hard on."

Having moved to within striking distance of the top spot on the standings with this attack-minded approach, the Bulls will not suddenly take a more conservative route into the knock-out stages.

"What we have done during the season is what brought us here.

"We must do what we have been doing the whole season.

"We can put away teams with this style, so we will stick to that."

Turning to his own game, Johannes revealed that he has been training at No.9 and No.10, so he is comfortable at either scrumhalf or flyhalf.

"Whenever you get a chance you should just do what is required from you [by the coaches]," he told @rugby365com.

He pointed to just retired Springbok legend Ruan Pienaar as a role model from which he can get some 'handy hints' as a utility.

"While I was playing No.10 and switching to No.9, I have been studying a bit of Ruan Pienaar's clips.

"He has been doing it for some time and is good wherever he plays," the 24-year-old said, adding: "[He is] someone I looked up to.

"There are a lot I can take into my game by studying him.

"Ruan Pienaar, the guy is a legend."
