Having lost to the Sharks last weekend, the Blue Bulls are looking to bounce back in their trans- Jukskei derby against the Golden Lions at Loftus on Saturday (4.05pm).
And while they made a number of handling errors in their last outing, a 26-10 defeat to the Sharks in Durban, wing Johnny Kotze is confident that the Pretoria men don’t lack anything in the skills department.
Kotze explains: “You don’t have to go too deep into it [the mistakes], it is silly handling errors.
“It is just a lack of concentration and if we can correct that this week, we will be ready for this weekend.
“You fight forwards and backwards the whole time.
“At some stage the emotions will get to you because you don’t get any reward from the good you provide and that could lead to a downward spiral.
“I think our handling and skills are on a good level and this past weekend was just one of those that nothing went our way.
“The guys will pull our socks up and turn it around this week.”
