Pumas unchanged for the FS Cheetahs─── 08:46 Thu, 04 Sep 2014
Bloemfontein - The Pumas have made no changes to their side that beat the defending Currie Cup champions, the Sharks 32-22, for this weekends’ match against the Toyota Free State Cheetahs.
The only change to the squad is on the bench with Hennie Skorbinski being drafted into the match-day 22 as centre cover for JW Jonker and Stefan Watermeyer, who had formed a tight midfield combination so far this season.
Coach Jimmy Stonehouse told OFM Sport that they took a different approach this week with a lighter training session on Monday.
The last time the two sides met, the Pumas beat the Free State 28-21 in the opening round.
Saturday’s match at the Free State Stadium kicks off at 15:00.
Pumas - 15 JW Bell, 14 Jerome Pretorius, 13 JW Jonker, 12 Stefan Watermeyer, 11 Rosko Specman, 10 Justin van Staden, 9 Dylon Frylnick, 8 Renaldo Bothma, 7 Uzair Cassiem, 6 Corne Steenkamp (captain) 5 Giant Mtyanda, 4 Frikkie Spies, 3 Vincent Koch, 2 Francois du Toit, 1 Corne Fourie.
Replacements - 16 Frankie Herne, 17 Dejay Terblanche, 18 Marius Coetzer, 19 Jaco Bouwer, 20 Reynier van Rooyen, 21 JC Roos, 22 Hennie Skorbinski.
