Bulls forced to make changes due to illness
NEWS: The Bulls have been forced to make three changes to their Round Six matchday line-up against Benetton after overnight illness struck the camp in Italy.
The changes see Keagan Johannes moving from the impact squad into the flyhalf role, with Boeta Chamberlain among the casualties that also include centre Stedman Gans and speedster Sebastian de Klerk.
Elsewhere, Zak Burger has been drafted into the match day duty list as he will be the reserve scrumhalf now that Johannes shifts to ten.
