Griquas shuffle pack for Pumas
After their dramatic 30-25 win over reigning Currie Cup champions the Free State Cheetahs last week, the Griquas have opted to rotate the pack.
The modifications see Stephan Kotze moving from the bench to the starting line-up. He will replace Ewald van der Westhuizen at tight head prop.
Shaun McDonald moves from flank to pair up with Pieter Jansen Van Vuren in an all-new lock pairing.
At the loose trio, Sias Koen takes the place of McDonald at openside flank and partners up with Wendal Wehr. Jonathan Janse Van Rensburg will don the No.8 jersey, he replaces Kevin Kaba who takes a spot on the bench.
The only change in the backline sees Kyle Steyn replacing Ederies Arendse at right wing.
