While the collective South African rugby fraternity is holding its breath in anticipation of the spicy Vodacom United Rugby Championship battle that will play out in Durban on Saturday, Vodacom Bulls winger Sebastian de Klerk is relishing the opportunity of more oxygen to spur his side on to victory.
The Hollywoodbets Sharks’ win in the EPCR Challenge Cup last weekend has made the Durban clash even more anticipated, especially as there is a belief that the Sharks will pick their best side to finish the season on a high.
De Klerk believes the move from the highveld to sea level will stimulate the oxygen in the Bulls blood and allow their already free-flowing game plan to dominate proceedings if they go about it the right way. “I don’t want to elaborate too much on it, but we are very excited to go there. We haven’t won there in a while, and there are actually not a lot of teams that have won there and scored many tries.While the Bulls are by far the top try-scoring side in the tournament, there has been some attention on the fact they have let sides come back at them in the tail end of games to score easy tries and rack up some points.“There’s a lot of attention on the defence at the moment,” De Klerk explained.
“We will definitely continue attacking as we have, and score as many tries as possible. Our coaches have worked very hard on our defence and attack, so that we can find those gaps and score so many points.
