The Bulls have reviewed the footage of the five minutes that cost them last weekend's United Rugby Championship (URC) clash against the Stormers in Cape Town, and they believe their mistakes can be managed and rectified against the Sharks in Durban on Saturday.

That is the view of Bulls centre Lionel Mapoe, speaking ahead of Saturday's trip to King's Park for a clash that is crucial to both sides in the context of the URC standings.

The Bulls are 4th on the overall log with 34 points from 10 matches, while the Sharks have 24 points from eight and can make serious ground on the Bulls with victory this weekend.

The unique New Year's Eve fixture comes a week after the Bulls were rocked by the Stormers at DHL Stadium on 23 December when they conceded three tries in five minutes to lose 37-27.
