Coach Johan Ackermann said he was hopeful the Bulls would end a seven-game losing run in all competitions when they take on Pau in a final pool game in the Champions Cup in France on Friday night 10pm.
The Pretoria-based team are rooted to the bottom of their pool in the competition with just this one game to go in round robin play and only a win and another result going their way will see them into the knockout rounds. A defeat could see the Bulls drop to the second-tier Challenge Cup last-16, or out of all the competitions altogether, depending on results.
Transfer training to the gameAckermann and his charges are feeling the heat following the string of defeats, but the coach, who took over from Jake White at the start of the season, remained hopeful things would soon turn around.
