Whiteley at eight for the Lions
Springbok number eight Warren Whiteley will wear the Xerox Golden Lions number eight jumper against the Cheetahs in Bloemfontein on Saturday but Jaco Kriel will still lead the team on the field.
Steph de Wit will be the third member of the loose-trio with Kwagga Smith moving to the bench.
The third change to the starting line-up is the inclusion of Jacques van Rooyen in the front row.
Lourens Erasmus retains his place at lock after a sterling performance last weekend.
The backline is unchanged.
