Pieter Bergh - Gideon van der Merwe and Tiaan Swanepoel

Loading player...
The Suzuki Griquas coach, Pieter Bergh, has stressed the importance of discipline ahead of Saturday’s big SA Cup derby against the Toyota Cheetahs in Kimberley.
A thrilling encounter is expected between the two sides, and it could well go down to the wire — with a penalty or two possibly determining the outcome.
The Cheetahs have a new flyhalf, Tiaan Swanepoel, who has no trouble slotting long-range penalties thanks to his powerful boot.
Bergh told OFM Sport that discipline will be key, but the Griquas have planned accordingly.
