He is replaced by<\/span><b> Luhan du Plessis<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">They can still rely on some of their other big playmakers like <\/span><b>Devante Claassen<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> (scrumhalf) and <\/span><b>Dailen Geldenhuys<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> (flyhalf) who have played very well this year and are definitely in with a shot at making the Craven week squad if they continue performing at their current level.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Saint Andrew\u2019s<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> welcomes <\/span><b>Cornwall Hill College <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">from Centurion for their big annual derby.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">When these two met last year in Gauteng, Cornwall Hill College emerged victorious, beating the Bloemfontein side 26-0.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Saints will want to set the record straight on their home turf.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Bloemfontein High<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> and <\/span><b>Sand du Plessis<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> both travel for their games on Saturday.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Bloemfontein High face<\/span><b> Brandfort<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, who managed a convincing 31-7 victory over <\/span><b>President Steyn<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> last weekend and will hope to build on that momentum.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Sannies travel to Reddersburg to play <\/span><b>Hendrik Potgieter<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> in what is bound to be an exciting battle between the structured attacking play of the Hendrik Potgieter forward-pack and the
