Kick-off: 3pm

  • In other matches on Saturday home side Western Province can hardly afford a second loss - this one at home at Newlands - when they play the Sharks XV after their somewhat surprising defeat against the Boland Cavaliers on Saturday.

Former Springbok Hanyani Shimange's team will simply have to overcome what will be a confident Sharks side after their huge and very good win over the Border Bulldogs last weekend.

  • Free State are at home to the Cavaliers and will have to be at their best to defeat a team that clearly means business under new coach Loffie Eloff who has already made great progress with the Boland side
  • The SWD Eagles match against Argentine Pampas XV has been called off because of ongoing boardroom squabbles in George and surrounds. Saturday's Vodacom Cup fixtures are (home teams first):

Saturday: WP v Sharks, 2.45pm; Free State v Boland Cavaliers, 4.45pm; Border v EP, 3.30pm Valke v Golden Lions, 3pm; SWD Eagles v Pampas XV, cancelled.
