Jake White is eager to unleash Jannes Kirsten against Ospreys, with the experienced utility forward set to make his Vodacom URC debut for the Vodacom Bulls on Saturday.

Skipper Elrigh Louw will earn his 50th cap in the competition, shifting to blindside flanker in a powerful loose trio with No 8 Cameron Hanekom and veteran campaigner Nizaam Carr. “So, he brings to the team, at the back end of a competition where it is now like knockout rugby, an incredible amount of knowledge, understanding and calmness.“He is another guy who might not be captain but definitely has some leadership qualities to help the youngsters on the field as well. He is a very detailed guy and incredibly bright.

Ospreys trail the Bulls by six points on the overall log and a win at Loftus Versfeld would be their second on tour and a major boost to their playoff ambitions. For the Herd, victory would help keep fate in their control.
