Golden Lions' Springbok flyhalf Marnitz Boshoff has recovered from a fractured arm in order to take his place on the bench when the Lions face the Griquas.
Coach Johan Ackermann has made a number of rotational changes which sees prop Jacques van Rooyen and flank Warwick Tecklenburg will both start the match after moving up from the bench.
Meanwhile, in the backline, Ross Cronje will start at scrumhalf after recovering from an injury of his own.
Howard Mnisi gets his shot to impress with the former Griquas man starting at inside centre at the expense of Nicolaas Hanekom.
