Highlanders Named To Play Bulls In Pretoria
Highlanders’ Head Coach, Jamie Joseph, has named his team to play the Bulls at Loftus Versfeld on Sunday morning New Zealand time.
Three changes have been made to the starting XV that played the Kings last weekend – all in the forwards. Jamie Mackintosh comes into loose-head prop and Tony Woodcock moves to the reserves. Jarrad Hoeata moves into lock, replacing Josh Bekhuis who sustained a shoulder injury last weekend. Joe Wheeler will start on the blindside and Mose Tuiali’i will anchor the scrum from number 8. This moves TJ Ioane to the reserves, joining Elliot Dixon who is also loose-forward cover.
