Short memory

Greg Growden has no problem with the Bulls' decision to rest 13 players for this weekend's meeting with the Stormers, saying is it their privilege as log leaders in The Sydney Morning Herald.

"A load of bull has been uttered about the Bulls. So what if they rest up to 13 top-tier players for the final round match against the Stormers this weekend? That is the privilege of finishing well ahead of everyone else.

"If they are able to rest 13 players, good on them, because it shows what incredible depth they possess. According to those in the know, the Bulls' B team is almost as good as the Bulls A team, and could well win – in Cape Town, anyway.

"This is nothing new. During their golden period, the Crusaders regularly rested players, and it didn't do them any harm. It was all part of keeping their full squad motivated."
