Embrose Papier is set to carve his name into Bulls history this Saturday, and coach Johan Ackermann believes the Springboks are taking notice.
Papier will make his 170th appearance for the Bulls if he comes off the bench against Zebre Parma at Loftus Versfeld, moving past legendary scrumhalf Joost van der Westhuizen as the clubs most capped No 9.
The milestone comes amid another outstanding season from Papier, who has been one of the Bulls standout performers in both the URC and Champions Cup.
