Given his limited resources, Engledow will have to get creative in the next week – especially when it comes to selection.

For Friday's match George Whitehead moves from flyhalf to fullback in place of Eric Zana. Andre Swarts comes in at No.10.

Adriaan Coertzen moves from right wing to left wing, in place of Enver Brandt – with Ederies Arendse coming in at No.14.

Rudi van Rooyen replaces Christiaan Meyer at scrumhalf.

There is also reshuffle among the loose forwards – with Shaun McDonald in the No.7 jersey and RJ Liebenberg his flank partner. They come in for Sias Koen and Wendal Wehr.

Mzwanele Zito also replaces Floris Pelser at lock.
