GWK Griquas, after their disappointing, narrow win against the Golden Lions last Friday in Kimberley, travel up to Witbank to take on the Pumas. A match they must win with a bonus point, if they want to end in the quarter finals of the Vodacom Cup.
The top four teams in the North and South sections of the competition, will play in the quarters, but a home one would be a advantage to Griquas, as they play better rugby at home, although last weeks’ encounter against the Lions was not a pretty sight. At present, Griquas lie in third place, with a match in hand, in the north section, the Leopards on top, closely followed by the Bulls in second spot.
Griquas: Riaan Viljoen, Egon Seconds, Richard Lawson, Hanno Coetzee, Gavin Passens, Naas Olivier, Dougie Helmuth, Sean Plaatjies, Davon Raubenheimer, Jonathan Mokuena(c), Jacques Lombaard, Cecil Kemp, Ruaan du Preez, Ryno Barnes, Albertus Buckle Replacements: Andries Kruger, Steph Roberts Brendon Snyman, Rohan Kitshoff, Dann
Pumas: Rudi Vogt; Poerie van Rooyen, Juan Visser, Jovan Botha, Allister Ketteldas; Valentine van Wyk, Jacques Coetzee; Doppies le Roux, Martin Sithole, Jaco Bouwer, Eduaan van der Walt, Luhan Velthuisen, Ashley Buys, Hannes Franklin, Dawie Steyn. Reserves: Morné Kruger, Sean Johnson, Nicol Mostert, Torsten van Jaarsveld, Hendrik van der Nest, Tiaan Marx, Hyron Thysse.
