Lions make three Currie Cup changes for Griquas

The Lions have named a side with three changes to their Currie Cup side to play Griquas in Kimberley

There are three changes to the starting line-up and three on the bench for the trip to Kimberley.

Courtnall Skosan, MB Lusaseni and Dylan Smith will start against the Peacock Blues while Corné Fourie, Bobby de Wee and Ruaan Lerm will warm the bench in the place of Justin Ackerman, MB and Victor Sekekete.

As Griquas is a Super Rugby partner of the Golden Lions with some Lions players in action for them, the match can shed some light on the depth of talent in the region.
