The dictum “it is not how you start, it’s how you finish” suits the Bulls perfectly, reckons Johan Grobbelaar, after alluding to his team’s seven defeats in a row near the start of the season compared to their current run of eight wins in their last nine games.

The Bulls play the Glasgow Warriors — ironically, the team to last beat them — on Saturday in Edinburgh in the semi-finals of the United Rugby Championship (URC).

“We are peaking at the right time, when it really matters,” said Grobbelaar, who is set to earn his 150th cap for the Bulls.

“We were not at our best at the start of the season, but over the last few matches, even though we have been far from perfect, we are building nicely. You would rather have your form this way around over the season.
