Bulls' 'bomb Squad' Ready To Detonate: Goosen And Hanekom Back For Bayonne Challenge Cup

Meghan Trainors hit song may be entitled All About That Bass, but it will be all about the bench for the Bulls in Saturdays Challenge Cup last-16 clash against Bayonne in France 1.30pm start.

While coach Jake White named a well-balanced starting line-up on Friday, he has loaded his replacements group with a number of top-class figures who can bring the necessary impact in the second half.

First on that list would be star No 8 Cameron Hanekom, who has shaken off a back issue that kept him out of last weeks 63-24 URC drubbing of Zebre at Loftus Versfeld.

But if Bayonne were thinking thats the end of the Bulls second-half impact, theyve got another thing coming the Pretoria sides unique Bomb Squad.

Even though it doesnt match the Springboks six-two split, three out of the five forwards are Test players in hooker Jan-Hendrik Wessels, lock Ruan Nortj and loose forward Hanekom.
