EP KINGS VS XEROX GOLDEN LIONS

Xerox Golden Lions head coach Johan Ackermann has been forced to make several changes to his side, which will face the EP Kings in Port Elizabeth tomorrow.

Captain Warren Whiteley has been drafted into the Springbok squad and will hence be replaced by Willie Britz, who moves up from the bench. Martin Muller will provide cover off the wood.

Unfortunately Robbie Coetzee has also been withdrawn from tomorrow’s match after suffering from a neck spasm. He will be replaced by Willie Wepener on the bench.

Lionel Mapoe will captain the side.

The match will kick off at 19h10.
