CAPE TOWN - After months of sitting on the bench, South Africa’s Vodacom Super Rugby teams have been unshackled and are ready to tackle.
The teams will take to the field of Loftus Versfeld on Saturday 26 September in a spectacular Vodacom Super Fan Saturday double-header. The Vodacom Bulls will kick-start Vodacom Super Fan Saturday as they take on the Cell C Sharks. And they’ll be followed by the epic clash between the Emirates Lions and the DHL Stormers.
