Vodacom Bulls' Director of Rugby, Jake White, has confirmed the Vodacom Bulls’ 28-men travelling squad for Wales, ahead of their Vodacom United Rugby Championship round 12 tie against the Dragons at the Rodney Parade stadium in the city of Newport, South of Wales; on Friday 06 January 2023 and kick-off is scheduled for 21h45pm (SA time).
“We have another three away games this January, this is the block that is toughest for us, playing six out of seven games on the road, so things aren’t getting any easier but we just have to make sure that we improve every week,” the Vodacom Bulls mentor remarked.
White concluded by saying: “This is a massive test of character for us as a group, both coaches and players but we have to make sure that we start the new year with good energy and look to get both our campaigns (Vodacom United Rugby Championship and the Heineken Champions Cup) on track.”
