The Bulls will have a positive approach to the game as well. The less we try tear each other apart and the more rugby we play, the better.

I can honestly say that we as the coaching staff tried to impress upon the players beforehand that victory was not the most important thing in this first game.

confirmed games genuine good guy match might others pleasing test
There were some very pleasing performances from the new guys. Some confirmed they might have what it takes, others did not. That is what warm-up games are for. You only really know how good a guy is when you test him in a genuine match situation.
confidence continuity problem selection
I think continuity has been a problem in selection and our cohesion and confidence has suffered.
