South Africa kept up its record of hosting every Vodacom United Rugby Championship final since the beginning of the competition after the Vodacom Bulls and Glasgow Warriors both won epic games against Irish opposition to claim their spots in the last week of the competition.
It will be an epic afternoon of rugby with the Springboks facing Wales at Twickenham at 3pm before the URC final takes centre stage. The Boks will be without several Bulls players who must have made an impression with their run to the final, but are likely to be a mix and match outfit as several European based players are also unavailable because the test falls outside the international test window.
For the Vodacom Bulls it will be their second Vodacom URC Grand Final in three seasons and their first home final since 2009 where they defeated the Chiefs in the Super Rugby decider.
