The Toyota Cheetahs will be travelling north to face the Airlink Pumas on Saturday, 19 February at 14:30 in Nelspruit. The action will be live on SuperSport.
“During the last two weeks, we’ve done a lot of preparation. We know we are playing against a really good team in Nelspruit and it’s been a tough place to go to the last few seasons. They suffered a big lost against the Griquas so they’ll be up for it.” Said, Captain Ruan Pienaar.
“We had a good away win against the Bulls and only one injury so we didn’t have to make a lot of changes to the team.” Said, Coach Hawies Fourie.
Coach Hawies Fourie announced his team with one change to the starting line-up:
Daniel Kasende will be starting on right-wing and Rosko Specman moves to left-wing, replacing the injured Enver Brandt. Marnus van der Merwe and Cohen Jasper is back on the bench.
