Notes
Quotes from Backline Coach, Sean Everitt.

“Marcell is a very fit and enthusiastic young man, he has a lot of energy and brings a lot of energy to the team. Despite flying into Durban late on Sunday, he was at rehab training first thing on Monday morning. He hasn’t shown any signs of fatigue, he’s got through both training sessions very well, so we expect him to give of his best.

“It’s good that Heimar has another opportunity because he did really well in the games he played. He was one of the top performers in the backline in those games. On the other hand, Louis Ludik has done exceptionally well, playing out of position at 13. Louis is always very accurate in what he does; he gives of his best at all times. So it is a nice opportunity for him to have a break and it’s also good that we can have a look at other combinations that may carry the can for us in the future.”
