De Bruin has included Cyle Brink who missed the match against the Waratahs with an “arm stinger” and he returns at flank which rotates Lourens Erasmus who drops down to the bench.

On the wing Courtnall Skosan comes in to replace Aphiwe Dyantyi who was forced off against the Waratahs with a hamstring injury.

Although Dyanti has lost his place in the starting line up he has been named on the bench.
