Pukke unchanged for Bloem trip
North West University (Pukke) coach Rudy Joubert has named an unchanged team for his Round Two encounter with the University of the Free State in the FNB Varsity Cup, presented by Steinhoff International, on Monday.
Joubert and his squad was, this week, forced to go on an unscheduled “training camp” – to avoid the distractions that come with the Rag festivities at the University.
The team took up camp at a facility near Hartbeesfontein as they look to bounce back from their narrow 27-29 loss to Tukkies last week.
Pukke: 15 Cecil Dumond, 14 Andrew van Wyk, 13 Jacques de Kock, 12 Dewan Eckard, 11 Randall April, 10 WD Botha, 9 Teuns Kotzé, 8 Willem van der Wal (captain), 7 Thabo Molete, 6 Savvas Nel, 5 Markus Fourie, 4 Grant le Roux, 3 Stephan Bezuidenhout, 2 Stoffel Duvenhage, 1 Jaco Koch.
Replacements: 16 Lourens Botes, 17 BG Uys, 18 Francois Robbertse, 19 Jaco Lötter, 20 Andries Mahoney, 21 Wenstley Scott, 22 Lloyd Seleka.
Coach: Rudy Joubert
Assistant Coaches: Attie Strauss, Mervyn Taylor
Date: Monday, February 9
Venue: Shimla Park, Bloemfontein
Kick-off: 18.45
