Bulls aim big guns at Glasgow

Vodacom Bulls coach Johan Ackermann has loaded his squad with Springboks for Saturday’s Investec Champions Cup last-16 playoff against the Glasgow Warriors. In the wake of the Pretoria-based side’s 34-31 win over Munster in the Vodacom URC, Ackermann vowed to go all out to win at Scotstoun Stadium, and he has done exactly that. MORE: Bulls to give Champions Cup ‘best shot’ The 33-man Bulls touring squad includes 14 Springboks and experienced players, as well as exciting emerging talents like Cheswill Jooste and Reinhardt Ludwig. Springboks Akker van der Merwe, Wilco Louw and Nizaam Carr were unavailable for selection. The squad is set to depart for the UK on Monday evening after a light training session.

All Black defends Nienaber amid criticism

Jacques Nienaber has received a ringing endorsement from Rieko Ioane, with the All Blacks centre praising the former Springbok boss’ influence at Leinster. Nienaber’s defensive blueprint has come under scrutiny in Dublin, with some suggesting Leinster have lost their attacking edge since the departure of Stuart Lancaster. But Ioane – currently adjusting to life in Ireland – insists the South African has been a major asset. “It’s my first time being coached by a South African and I’ve enjoyed Jacques, although some of the stuff he says I can’t really understand,” he joked. “I’ve loved having him as a coach, and he’s priceless in this environment, his passion for defence, something I pride myself on. “He just loves it, and honestly, you’d get him in a room and he could talk for two hours about one instance, and how willing he is to make the players and the team better is awesome.” STATE OF EURO CUPS: Stormers, Bulls on collision course Ioane’s comments come amid a mixed spell for the 88-Test All Black, who has yet to consistently hit top gear since his move to Dublin. “It sucks not playing, but I always kept an open mind. I was confident in my ability to cover wing and I was super confident in my ability to cover midfield,” he said. “That’s where I want to play. That’s where I want to be while having the ability to cover both… It was disappointing, but you can’t drop your lip. You’re still an All Black, whether you’re in the 23 or not.” Photo: Shaun Roy/Sportsfile via Getty Images The post All Black defends Nienaber amid criticism appeared first on SA Rugby magazine.
