Jongi Nokwe has been left out of the Cheetahs squad that will face the Griquas this weekend in Bloemfontein. After his average performance against the British and Irish Lions in the 3rd test, Nokwe has been dropped by Cheetahs head coach, this is hard to believe as he is one of the stars of the struggling outfit. While his defense in questionable at best, his attacking mind and incredible finishing skill will surely be missed this weekend. If the game goes down to the wire, Nokwes absence may be vital. News from the Cheetahs camp is that Lionel Mapoe will be starting on the left wing in place of the "lazy" Nokwe. The coaches believe that Jongi has not spent enough time with the squad because of national duties, despite other provinces starting their Bok players with the same period of absence. Could this be the beginning of the end of Nokwe's career as a cheetah? With teams like WP and Lions in need of a couple more world class players to buff up their back lines, who knows where this Cheetah will end up.
