Prop Lizo Gqoboka could be available for the Bulls’ trip to face the Cheetahs in Bloemfontein on Saturday.

Team doctor Herman Rossouw has confirmed that Gqokoba has come to the end of his rehabilitation from a groin injury and will start training with the team on Tuesday, with a call on his availability then set to be made.

Besides the possible return of Gqoboka, the Bulls also have no other injury worries after last weekend’s clash with the Sunwolves, although there are still a host of players who remain on the sidelines.

The Bulls look set to miss out on a playoff place, with the Sharks currently occupying the wildcard-qualifying berth, but the Pretoria-based side will want to finish the conference stage on a high.
