JP Pietersen - Changes for Cheetahs game

Loading player...
The fiery hooker, Willem van der Hever, has been named on the bench for Saturday’s Currie Cup round three clash against the Toyota Cheetahs in Durban.
The former Maties player was one of six Griffons to depart the Northern Free State union after they won the Currie Cup First Division last month.
Van den Hever is an abrasive hooker with the knack for scoring tries, and in his last outing against the Cheetahs in the SA Cup he scored a try in Bloemfontein.
Meanwhile, Jean Smith, has been rotated to the bench and the Junior Springbok pivot Vusi Moyo starts in the number 10 jersey.
Coach JP Pietersen explains his changes to OFM Sport.
