Loading player...
The Toyota Cheetahs coach, Izak van der Westhuizen, has conceded that there are a lot of work-ons following their unsuccessful EPCR Challenge Cup campaign.
On Saturday the Cheetahs conceded ten tries as they were beaten 68-21 by the French Top14 club, and eliminated from the Challenge Cup.
The Cheetahs have been plagued by injuries and there were more early in the match against Lyon, and this did have an impact.
Van der Westhuizen told OFM Sport that it’s important to continue learning and growing.
