The Vodacom Bulls have made a decision on their travel arrangements ahead of the URC final against Leinster at Dublin’s Croke Park on Friday, 19 June. LINDIZ VAN ZILLA reports.
The Bulls have opted to return to South Africa and will arrive on Tuesday following their epic 22-21 win over the Glasgow Warriors at Murrayfield on Saturday.
The team will then spend time recovering from their semi-final exertions and prepping to take on defending champions Leinster in a repeat of the 2025 final.
The 82,000-capacity Croke Park is the only suitable stadium available in the Dublin area for next weekend’s final.
Last season’s final, also at Croke Park, saw Leinster beat the Bulls 32-7 in front of a crowd of 46,127.

It is the fourth time in five seasons that the Bulls have reached the URC showpiece, but they are yet to lift the trophy.
The Bulls spent close to a month on tour in Europe earlier in the season.
After an Investec Champions Cup round-of-16 playoff defeat to the Glasgow Warriors on 4 April, they opted to remain in Europe to prepare for fixtures against the Dragons on 17 April and the Scarlets the following week.
