Notes
Quotes from Head Coach, Brad Macleod-Henderson.
“The Pumas showed why they are a very good side last week when they got a good win over Free State. They’ve only lost two or three games in the last two years, their players have been together as a team for a while now and they know where they’re going. They’re well-structured and we’ll need to perform well on Friday night to get the result.
“They’re well-drilled and they did well in the Vodacom Cup, just getting pipped at the post by [eventual winners] Griquas in the semis.
“We’re very excited and looking forward to being back home, it’s fantastic to play at Growthpoint KINGS PARK, and we’ve taken a lot of confidence out of our away win last week.”
