The Suzuki Griquas have named their big guns for Saturday’s crucial SA Cup fourth-round clash against the Griffons in Kimberley.

Griquas forward coach and former Springbok lock, Franco van der Merwe, told OFM Sport that they are bracing for a stern test against a side that is always highly motivated when facing them.
