Bulls leave for URC European tour without injured Bok wings

While they have started the seasons with three wins out of three, the Bulls will be without the services of Springbok wings Canan Moodie and Sbu Nkosi as well as influential hooker Johan Grobbelaar for their three-match overseas tour. 

Jake White's charges left for Europe on Monday and will take on Glasgow Warriors, Munster and Benneton. 

The trio were injured in the Bulls' 28-14 bonus point victory over Connacht last Friday.  

Moodie left the field with what seemed to be a hamstring injury, while Nkosi suffered a suspected concussion and had to be assisted off the field. 

Grobbelaar suffered an ankle injury during the match as well.  

At this point, there is no time frame on when they will return to action. 

The Bulls' touring squad includes 30 players with 17 forwards and 13 backs.
