It is Tuks’ third last game in the first round of the competition.

Tuks may well be the log front runner (27), but has Police breathing in their necks with 25. Any unforeseen mishap can therefore be very costly to the defending champions.

A win against Brits is nonnegotiable and Tuks will also be out to score at least four tries for a bonus point.

Tuks will also use the match against Brits as a run-up to the derby against TUT on May 23. This ‘intervarsity’ could well be the first round ‘final’.
