The Southern Kings have named their team to face Edinburgh in their Pro 14 clash at Myreside Stadium, in Edinburgh, on Friday.
As the Kings return from their winter break, a number of familiar faces were included in the starting XV. The team will be captained by Schalk Ferreira and will be chasing its first-ever win in the Guinness Pro 14.
Yaw Penxe, Kurt Coleman, Berton Klaasen and Dries van Schalkwyk are some of the team’s key performers who will line out in the Scottish capital.
Top tackler Andisa Ntsila (132) did not travel with the team on their last trip to Europe, before heading back to South Africa for back-to-back derby games with the Cheetahs.
