New front row to face Brumbies

There are five changes in the Emirates Lions side that will face the Brumbies in their last Vodacom Super Rugby fixture on tour in Canberra on Friday.

A decision on the cover at flank on the bench will be taken later in the week.

Justin Ackerman will be joining the squad in Australia to provide back-up for the injured Hencus van Wyk.

Kick-off is at 11:45 on Friday (SA time) in the GIO Stadium in Canberra.
