The Suzuki Griquas forwards coach, Franco van der Merwe, has called for a dominant display upfront when they face the Pumas in Kimberley on Saturday in the SA Cup final.
The Pumas have built a reputation around their big, physical forward pack, which has become a cornerstone of their success in recent years. The Griquas, meanwhile, are renowned for their fearless approach, and they will relish the challenge awaiting them - particularly in the set-piece battle, where the scrums and lineouts are expected to play a decisive role in the contest.
Van der Merwe told OFM Sport that the Griquas need to be rock-solid in the set pieces, especially with the intensity and pressure that comes with a final.
