Change to DHL WP team to take on Griquas

Tiaan Liebenberg’s Springbok call-up has necessitated a late change to the DHL Western Province team ahead of Saturday’s Absa Currie Cup meeting with GWK Griquas in Kimberley (kick-off 14h30).

With Liebenberg having joined the Bok squad as a replacement for the injured Chiliboy Ralepelle, DHL WP captain Deon Fourie has been moved from flank to his regular position of hooker.

Tyrone Holmes has been shifted across to take over Fourie’s No.6 jersey, with Canadian Jebb Sinclair promoted from the bench to take up the No.7 position.

Yaya Hartzenberg, who warmed the bench against the Sharks last weekend, will come into the matchday squad in jersey No.19.

The revised DHL Western Province team to take on GWK Griquas is as follows:

15. Gio Aplon
14. Gerhard van den Heever
13. JP du Plessis
12. Marcel Brache (vice-captain)
11. Ederies Arendse
10. Demetri Catrakilis
9. Louis Schreuder
8. Duane Vermeulen
7. Jebb Sinclair
6. Tyrone Holmes
5. De Kock Steenkamp
4. Don Armand
3. Frans Malherbe
2. Deon Fourie (captain)
1. Steven Kitshoff

RESERVES:

16. Siyabonga Ntubeni
17. Brok Harris
18. Wilhelm van der Sluys
19. Yaya Hartzenberg
20. Nic Groom
21. Kurt Coleman
22. Damian de Allende
