Coach Hawies Fourie announced a new team for Round 2 of the Toyota Challenge to battle it out for the R250 000 prize money. The Toyota Cheetahs will face Western Force on Saturday at 15:00 in Toyota Stadium in Bloemfontein.
Coach Hawies Fourie: “We are not completely satisfied with Friday’s performance but we’re glad about the win. The forwards pulled us through with the four maul tries.”
“There are a lot of changes, but hopefully the team will show more urgency. I told the players if they are healthy and fit, they are going to get game time in these two games at home. The players will have to stake a claim for the tour to Australia.”
