The Toyota Cheetahs are travelling to Nelspruit to face the Airlink Pumas on Saturday at 17:00 at the Mbombela Stadium. The match will be live on SuperSport.  

"I have confidence that we'll find our rhythm. There were a lot more positives against Griquas than in the Sharks' game," said Toyota Cheetahs head coach, Hawies Fourie

"We would like to rectify our record against the Pumas. They have improved over the last three years and are the defending champions. We respect them but want to turn the tables this weekend."

"Every game, we go out and give it our all to show that we are the best pack on the field. So this weekend will be the same story, we will go out, we want to dominate our set pieces, and we want to dominate our contact on attack and defence. We look forward to showing that we are a better team after all." Said Friedle Olivier, eight-man of the Toyota Cheetahs.

Loose forward Jeandre Rudolph and prop Conraad van Vuuren have recovered from injury; Rudolph will start from the bench while van Vuuren is on the starting lineup.
