The Blue Bulls are still smarting from an impressive 47-29 victory over defending champions Western Province in Pretoria last week.

Griquas are still searching for their first win, but the Blue Bulls travel to the Diamond City with the full knowledge that a visit to Kimberley is always a testing, bruising affair for any visiting team.

The Blue Bulls will be weary of being complacent and will try to stick to their structures and perhaps start to play their new expansive game early in the second half.
