Siya Kolisi will start in a loose-trio combination including Henco Venter and Sikhumbuzo Notshe for this Saturday’s Rainbow Cup clash with the Stormers.
Coach Sean Everitt has had an almost complete squad to pick from and chose a strong side for this opening clash of the Rainbow Cup SA.
Ox Nche, Fez Mbatha and Thomas du Toit will look to offer formidable opposition to the highly rated Stormers front row, while Ruben van Heerden and Reniel Hugo slot into the second row.
Lukhanyo Am leads the team in a backline where Grant Williams partners up with Curwin Bosch at halfback. Jeremy Ward, Yaw Penxe, Sbu Nkosi and Aphelele Fassi are all named in the run-on backline.
Saturday’s match at Cape Town Stadium kicks off at 2pm.
Rainbow Cup SA gets under way this weekend with the Cell C Sharks heading south to Cape Town to take on the DHL Stormers on Saturday in the opening fixture of the double-round, four team tournament.
