Springbok coach Rassie Erasmus has named an entirely new front row for Saturday’s one-off Test against Georgia in Nelspruit.
The front row is made up entirely of former Toyota Cheetahs players, with Boan Venter, Marnus van der Merwe and Neethling Fouché all set to make their Test debuts.
The trio will start the match, while the Upington-born Cobus Wiese earns his first run-on start, replacing his brother Jasper at eighth-man.
The older sibling, Jasper, is serving a four-match ban after receiving a red card against Italy last week.
Coach Rassie Erasmus says he wants to see his new-look front row properly tested on Saturday.
