Bloemfontein. - The Toyota Cheetahs' newly appointed coach Franco Smith, today wished Springbok-flyer Willie le Roux well, as he leaves the central franchise at the end of the Super Rugby Series to join the Sharks in Durban ahead of the 2016 Super Rugby campaign.
 
Smith admitted it’s a blow for the Cheetahs, but said Le Roux had put in some sterling performances for the Free State in his time here. They Cheetahs will have to find a replacement for Le Roux though, but hopefully Smith already has someone in mind.
 
Le Roux will join a Japanese club for three months after his 2015 Springbok commitments are completed, before joining the Durban-based franchise in time for next year's Super Rugby competition.
