GWK Griquas coach Hawies Fourie has named an unchanged starting lineup this week, as his embattled team looks to use their home fixture against the Cheetahs to finally jump start their campaign with that elusive first win.
Griquas went down badly against the Pumas in Nelspruit last Friday night after a competitive start to the game and are now second-last on the log after three fixtures.
Dean Grant continues at flyhalf this week, with Francois Brummer again in the number 15 jersey. Fourie has made two changes to his bench, though, with veteran prop Janro van Niekerk replacing Maks van Dyk and winger Rocco Jansen coming in for Neil Marais.
GWK Griquas: 15 Francois Brummer, 14 Ederies Arendse, 13 Jonathan Francke, 12 Wayne Stevens (captain), 11 PJ Vermeulen, 10 Dean Grant, 9 Tian Meyer, 8 Carel Greeff, 7 Ruaan Lerm, 6 Marnus Schoeman, 5 Jaco Nepgen, 4 Jonathan Adendorf, 3 Ewald Van Der Westhuizen, 2 Martin Bezuidenhout, 1 Steph Roberts.
Replacements: 16 Ryno Barnes, 17 Janro Van Niekerk, 18 Hugo Kloppers, 19 RJ Liebenberg, 20 Braam Griesel, 21 Doppies la Grange, 22 Rocco Jansen.
