The Blue Bulls Company has reduced ticket prices for the final round of the four-nation Incoming Series rugby contest, Beeld reported on Monday.

Tickets for the upper east pavilion and restricted viewing seats in the south pavilion had been reduced by R100 to attract a larger crowd to Loftus Versfeld where the Springboks face Samoa and Italy meet Scotland, on Saturday.

A disappointing 23,663 spectators witnessed the first double-header in Durban, while 30,018 spectators were present in the 41 ,000-capacity Mbombela Stadium in Nelspruit on Saturday. – Sapa
