Varsity Cup star a Leopard

Leopards coach Leon Boshoff has made minimal changes to his team for their Currie Cup trip to Johannesburg - and an encounter with the Lions on Saturday - with the inclusion of Varsity Cup star Wesley Dunlop the most significant selection.

Dunlop will only be on the bench, but the University of Pretoria star will no doubt get game time.

Changes to the starting XV sees Joubert Engelbrecht starting at inside centre, with Charl Weideman starting at outside centre after Engelbrecht's move inside.

In the front row Stoffel Duvenhage replaces Gavin Williamson at hooker.

Leopards: 15 George Tossel, 14 Danie Dames, 13 Charl Weideman, 12 Joubert Engelbrecht, 11 Wynand Willis, 10 Clayton Durandt, 9 Whestley Moolman, 8 Morné Hanekom, 7 Luvuyiso Lusaseni, 6 Philip de Wet, 5 Brendon Snyman, 4 Roelof van Heerden, 3 Stephan Bezuidenhout, 2 Stoffel Duvenhage, 1 Bennie Uys.
Replacements: 16 Bêrend Botha, 17 Gavin Williamson, 18 Christo van Niekerk, 19 Juan Pretorius, 20 Theo van Wyk, 21 Wesley Dunlop, 22 Walter Venter.
