Sevens specialist and Boland winger Cornal Hendricks swops places with Phillip Snyman. Snyman will join the Bok 7’s squad and Cornal Hendricks will add further depth to the Cheetahs squad. It is a win-win situation, as the Cheetahs have great depth at centre but need good quality wingers.

As a result Naka Drotske and Hawies Fourie can choose from Cornal Hendricks, Raymond Rhule, Cameron Jacobs, Phillip Burger, Nico Scheepers, Riaan Smit and from the Griquas’ Rocco Jansen, Dusty Noble and Willie le Roux. If Richard Lawson, Jannie Boshoff and Luzuko Vulindlu’s contracts get renewed, then they too will come into reckoning.
