Cape Town - Bulls captain Pierre Spies says they're not interested in winning the trophy the Stormers bagged in 2011.
The Stormers broke their trophy drought last season when they won the South African conference - for finishing as the top local team.
"The reason you want to finish on top in this series is to win the real thing," Spies told the Beeld newspaper.
Spies believes the round-robin phase is to play for a home semi-final and final, not for a trophy.(Bwahahahahahahahaha -well guess who had the Super 15 bragging rights since the end of last years competition! It sure wasn't the bulle!! Talk about sour grapes!)
"That other cup (trophy) isn't very high on our agenda and I don't think the other teams' players care that much for it as well." Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha - grow up spiesies!!! You fool nobody!
However, Bulls coach Frans Ludeke insisted that they haven't turned a blind eye to the Stormers' performance last season.
"They were the top South African team and we respect that (Yup Pierre do grow up and try and emulate Ludeke). It spurs us on, but we want to get rid of the emotions for this one. It's about the team with the plan."
Ludeke feels the intensity in contact and the fight on the advantage line will be of key importance come Saturday.
"The Stormers defend really well, like they showed against the Lions.
"A good start will help, but we'll have to be accurate for 80 minutes if we want to win."
He doesn't expect bonus points in this derby clash.
"The result is all that matters and I'll be happy to win ugly," said Ludeke.
The clash at Newlands kicks-off at 19:10 on Saturday
Bulle you are going down, down, down!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
