JP Nel back for Bulls

The Bulls have brought in only one player who did not feature in last week’s win over the Lions for Saturday’s Super 14 clash against the Reds in Brisbane.


JP Nel, who missed the Lions match because of suspension, returns at outside centre. Wynand Olivier moves back to the inside in place of Morne Steyn, whose versatility is being put to a further test with his move from inside centre to fullback.


He takes the place of Zane Kirchner, who is under suspension for his spear tackle in the Lions match.


Bulls coach Frans Ludeke has again opted for a five-two bench, with Heini Adams and Stephan Dippenaar the only backs on the bench.


The Bulls team is:
Morne Steyn; Akona Ndungane, JP Nel, Wynand Olivier, Bryan Habana; Derick Hougaard, Fourie du Preez (capt); Pedrie Wannenburg, Wikus van Heerden, Danie Rossouw, Wilhelm Steenkamp, Bakkies Botha, Rayno Gerber, Derick Ku’n, Gurthro Steenkamp.
Replacements: James vd Walt, Werner Kruger, Dean Greyling, Deon Stegman, Dewald Potgieter, Heini Adams, Stephan Dippenaar.
