There are seven changes to the DHL Western Province U20 team for their encounter with Eastern Province U20 in Gqeberha on Saturday.
Head Coach Labeeb Levy’s team will be looking for their fourth win of the season in a clash that kicks off at 13h00 on Saturday at the Wolfson Stadium.
There are three changes in the forward pack and four in the backline.
Hooker Nande Moses, lock Imad Phillips and flank Aidan Christians all come into the starting team up front.
In the backline scrumhalf Jacques Theron, centres Philasande Ngcobo and Melbirt Van der Spuy and wing Botshelo Kubyadi all get an opportunity to show what they can do.
Levy said that the focus for his team is putting together a solid performance away from home, to back-up their win against Toyota Cheetahs U20 at home last week.
“We want to produce an accurate performance away from home and that will take focus from every player.
“We have given a few players an opportunity to try and build some depth and it will be interesting to see how some of the new combinations go,” he said.
DHL Western Province U20: 15 Luke Burger, 14 Botshelo Kubyadi, 13 Melbirt Van der Spuy, 12 Philasande Ngcobo, 11 Paschal Ekeji, 10 Sacha Mngomezulu, 9 Jacques Theron, 8 Armand Maritz, 7 Ethan Snyman, 6 Aidan Christians, 5 Hendrik Sieberhagen, 4 Imad Phillips, 3 Corne Weilbach, 2 Nande Moses, 1 Lamla Nunu. Replacements: 16 Gustav Laubscher, 17 Yannick Marais, 18 Liam Sproston, 19 Bilaal Moerat, 20 Paul de Villiers, 21 Jonathan Roche, 22 Ethan James, 23 Masande Mtshali.
