Simon Westraadt - First Division semi-final against Eastern Province

--:--
The Griffons are quietly confident heading into their big Currie Cup First Division semi-final against Eastern Province in Welkom on Saturday.
The Griffons finished second on the log after the group stage and will enjoy home ground advantage.
While the Purple People Eaters managed to beat Eastern Province 66–32 earlier in the competition, they did lose to Allister Coetzee's charges during the SA Cup.
For the Griffons, reaching the final would be a form of redemption after being relegated to the First Division.
Versatile Griffons front-rower Simon Westraadt told OFM Sport that they want to do it for their fans.
