Vodacom Bulls coach Johan Ackermann is going all in for this weekend’s Investec Champions Cup round-of-16 fixture away to Glasgow.
The match takes place on Saturday (6:30pm SA time).
“If we’re in the play-offs in the Champions Cup, we must give it a go. We will give it our best shot, and then we’ll take it from there,” said Ackermann. “Glasgow are in front of us this week, but we’ll need to be better than we were against Munster if we hope to win.”
The trip to Scotland precedes two Vodacom United Rugby Championship fixtures, both away, against the Dragons (17 April) and Scarlets (5 April) respectively. The squad departs for the UK this evening (Monday).
