The Cheetahs have named their line-up to face Scarlets in an away Challenge Cup clash on Friday in Wales.
They will be without the services of experienced duo Frans Steyn and Ruan Pienaar, who were forced to withdraw from the touring squad at the last minute due to injury. Their places in the run-on XV will be taken by Rewan Kruger and Andell Loubser, respectively. Tapiwa Mafura and Branden de Kock will provide cover for fullback and scrumhalf from the bench. Resident rugby writer Rob Houwing gives you his expert views on what's going on between the poles.
The Cheetahs currently lie in 5th place in Pool B, having played two games with one win and one loss. "The Scarlets are very well organised on the attack, keeping the ball through numerous phases, so we must be sharp on defence," Fourie said. History will be made on Friday, with an all-women's team taking charge of the match
Hollie Davidson of Scotland will referee the encounter, and she will be assisted by Sara Cox and Clara Munarini , with Claire Hodnett in the TMO chair.
