Some team comparisons:
Starting XV:
BULLS: 1077 SXV caps; 10 Test Players - 206 caps.
FORCE: 746 SXV caps; 8 (6W/1AB/1T) Test Players - 84 caps
*Every Test experienced player except Hodgo.
Benches:
BULLS: 439 SXV caps; 4 Test Players - 138 caps.
FORCE: 268 SXV caps; 0 Test Players.
Packs:
BULLS: 902kg
FORCE: 892kg
Outweighed by 10kg in pack.
Fairly even after Front Row replacements.
Bulls - lots of SXV rugby and Test experience.
Hopeful of further improvement and a good showing with glimpses of what the group does well.
Not confident of a win.
