Manie Libbok will start at flyhalf in the only change to the Vodacom Bulls’ starting lineup to face the Brumbies in Canberra on Friday.
Libbok replaces Handré Pollard and forms the halfback partnership with André Warner, in a relatively unchanged team from the one that beat the Rebels in Melbourne last weekend.
As a result, 22-year-old JT Jackson is called up to the bench and could make his first appearance of the season.
Bulls – 15 Warrick Gelant, 14 Cornal Hendricks, 13 Johnny Kotze, 12 Burger Odendaal, 11 Rosko Specman, 10 Handré Pollard, 9 André Warner, 8 Duane Vermeulen, 7 Hanro Liebenberg, 6 Paul Schoeman, 5 RG Snyman, 4 Jason Jenkins, 3 Trevor Nyakane, 2 Schalk Brits, 1 Lizo Gqoboka.
Subs: 16 Jaco Visagie, 17 Simphiwe Matanzima, 18 Wiehahn Herbst, 19 Jannes Kirsten, 20 Marco van Staden, 21 Embrose Papier, 22 Manie Libbok, Divan Rossouw.
