Izak van der Westhuizen - Bomb squad

Loading player...
The Toyota Cheetahs have named a very strong bench for their SA Cup round five clash against the Griffons in Bloemfontein tomorrow.
For the first time this season the Cheetahs will be able to field their so-called bomb squad and they have a strong replacement front-row with Cameron Dawson, Vernon Paulo and Rob Hunt all playing.
The loose-forward Neels Volschenk and scrumhalf Smiley Nel will also be playing off the bench.
With rain around forward domination will be even more important against the physical Griffons.
The Cheetahs forwards coach, Izak van der Westhuizen, told OFM Sport that he is delighted to have the bomb squad back.
