The Bulls are sweating over the fitness of four key players ahead of Saturday's match against the Hurricanes at Loftus.

Flyhalf Francois Brummer and wing Jade Stiglingh both suffered muscle sprains, while wing Sibahle Maxwane sustained a concussion against the Lions last weekend. The backline trio did not partake in training on Monday and will be assessed later in the week to determine whether they will be ready to take on the Hurricanes.

Prop Trevor Nyakane sprained his shoulder in the same match, but is believed to be available for selection this coming weekend.
