Heyeke Meyer - Ready for Griquas challenge

Loading player...
The SWD Eagles are bracing themselves for a stern test when they travel to Kimberley to face the Suzuki Griquas in the penultimate round of the SA Cup on Saturday.

Meyer, the former Springbok and Bulls coach who has wasted little time in moulding the Eagles into a competitive and united outfit, told OFM Sport that his side is relishing the challenge that awaits in the Northern Cape.
