Johannesburg – Waratahs
Kepu and the Kurtley Beale Center are the only two survivors of the Waratahs team to have enjoyed success at Ellis Park in 2009.
The Sydneysiders are preparing for a Mbadive physical badault and the only change in their departure XV comes in the front row where Tolu Latu replaces Damien Fitzpatrick at the hooker.
Kepu told Sydney Morning Herald that they will face the pack of Lions "with an attack mentality".
"You have to go out there and hope to hold the fray, because that is a big package, the challenge is to go out there and be an offensive scrum as much as we can be, "
He added that the first row would adapt seamlessly" "There is not much difference to be honest," Kepu said. & # 39; & # 39; I can play with both (Latu and Fitzpatrick) over the last few weeks and I have played with Tolu for a long time now. They have strengths in different areas and, to be honest, Tolu is doing very well since he's been on the scene and he's fought for this starting point, and this has been the best for them. two. "
