The Toyota Cheetahs have been forced to make several changes for their EPCR Challenge Cup third-round clash against Zebre in Amsterdam on Saturday.
The most notable change is in the number six jersey with Daniel Maartens starting at flank, while Corné Fourie has been named on the bench as cover at loosehead prop.
The exciting youngsters, Sisonke Vumazonke, Jandré Nel, and Litha Nkula will all play off the bench.
The experienced flanker Friedle Olivier told OFM Sport the onus is on the youngsters to step up.
