WEDNESDAY, 10.20AM:
WESTERN Province rugby selectors have made only one change in the squad for the Bankfin Currie Cup semi-final match against Gauteng Lions at Newlands on Saturday. Percy Montgomery replaces Christiaan Stewart at centre.
The Province coach Harry Viljoen believes the strong running Montgomery could add another dimension to the backline play. Despite defence lapses which could put the cover-defence under increased pressure, the inclusion of Montgomery will give him more attacking options.
WESTERN PROVINCE TEAM: Justin Swart; James Small, Percy Montgomery, Dick Muir (captain), Pieter Rossouw; Louis Koen, Joggie Viljoen; Andrew Aitken, Bobby Skinstad, Corne Krige, Louis Blom, Fritz van Heerden, Keith Andrews, Johan van Wyk, Toks van der Linde. RESERVES: Christian Stewart, Michael Kirsten, Peet Arnold, Jaco Kirsten, Garry Pagel, Selborne Boom.
