Richard Cockrill - Facing the Toyota Cheetahs in Bloemfontein

The Georgian national rugby team will be heading to South Africa next week for their one-off Test against the Springboks in Nelspruit.
However, they will travel to Bloemfontein first, where they will face the Toyota Cheetahs in a match that will celebrate 130 years of Free State Rugby.
For the Cheetahs, this match is a major occasion, while for the Lelos, it’s also a significant one—especially as they take on the world champions a week later.
The Georgian coach, Richard Cockerill, told OFM Sport that they can’t wait to face the Cheetahs next week.
