The Cheetahs will be able to select Ruan Pienaar for the Currie Cup semi-finals, but Hawies Fourie has not confirmed whether the veteran will face the Vodacom Bulls at flyhalf or scrumhalf.
In the previous two games, Pienaar had played at flyhalf due to Masuku’s loss of form and played a crucial role in securing a draw with Griquas in Kimberley and a win over the Pumas in Nelspruit. “He is definitely back in the team after having to support his family and relatives. It’s good to have him back for the semi-final.Fourie hailed the impact of the Currie Cup minnows in competing with the four franchises, who were able to boost their teams with United Rugby Championship regulars in the latter parts of the domestic tournament.
“The Griffons must also get credit. They were never a punching bag and in every match they fought hard.
